Hi I have a question. I am logged into mint all the time. I have ignore my visits checked and I dont have make mint public checked. However, this morning at 10.30 am another tracker is telling me that someone visited my site via mint. I was not near my desktop at that time and I did not visit the pages my tracker is saying I did. Can someone still get access to mint even though I dont allow public viewing and why is it showing up as my IP address? I must stress that no one had access to my computor at this time as the house was empty.

No. All anyone else will see is your Mint login screen. If you click on referrers in your MInt installation, your MInt installation will show up as a referrer in that site’s stats.

I’m not sure about the IP address question. Cookies do expire or get deleted. Check your Mint Preferences and make sure “Ignore my visits” is still checked.
