I don't know if this is a bug. I have MM5. When I (as a customer) sign in from my storefront, I don't get any error messages - I sign in. Everything looks fine. But when I click to go to one of the categories - I notice that I'm no longer signed in and I have to sign in again. After I do it the second time - it sticks - it's ok. What's up with this? It's a little annoying.

Did you alter your LOGN page template?

Sounds like you might be switching your URL around; for example, if you send people to the sign-in page as domain.com but then the store is set to run as www.domain.com and changes to that after logging in, the browser will view that as two different domains and you'll lose the cookie assigned to you during the first sign-in.

I haven't changed the LOGN page. I login just fine - it's when I click to go to a category on the side of the page that it knocks me out.
The LOGN page looks like this -
<html>
<head>
<title>&mvt:store:name;: Customer Login</title>
<base href="&mvt:global:basehref;">
<mvt:item name="head" />
</head>
<mvt:item name="body">
<mvt:item name="hdft" param="global_header" />
<table border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%">
<tr><td align="left" valign="bottom">
<mvt:item name="navbar" />
</td></tr>
<tr><td align="left" valign="bottom">
<mvt:item name="hdft" param="header" />
</td></tr>
<mvt:item name="brokosm" param="LOGN_header" />

<br>
<mvt:item name="fonts" param="body_font">

<mvt:item name="messages" />
</mvt:item>
<form method="post" action="&mvt:global:secure_sessionurl;">
