There actually appears to be two issues here.
1. In the forum, log-on automatically each visit box does not work.
2. On the main page, Windows XP Users with Chrome Receive Error Message ERR_SSL_VERSION_OR_CIPHER_MISMATCH
I understand that the hosting company has resolved the issue with the forum login. If anyone is still having that specific problem, then please let us know here in this thread.
The second problem with Windows XP occurs because of a software update in Chrome, which requires a similar update in the operating system.
Unfortunately Windows XP is classified as End of Life. Microsoft no longer provides free support or software updates for Windows XP. And, as of July of this year will no longer provide security updates via Security Essentials.

http://www.kaspersky.com/about/news/vir ... istics-SayAccording to a systems analysis last year, less than 5 percent of people in the United States are using Windows XP. Basically, it's important to track because Windows XP users are going to present a kind of public security risk to the rest of the users on the Internet, once security updates are gone.
Sorry guys, but I don't it's reasonable to troubleshoot or provide any support for Windows XP users. It's obsolete software, and the manufacturer won't fix any problems unless you pay them by the hour. Also, very few people are still using it.
