Jerboa tries to log in with session info passed to the server, if the server doesn't respond properly then it just calls you Anonymous, because it can't acquire your username and info. That's probably what's happening.
oh, okay. didn't knew that. i expected that it saves the login information locally (encrypted) and then uses this to login.. and if there is an error, that it just says "login error" or something.. with the option to retry.
it's weird that it looks like the whole login data just gets wiped. confused me a lot since it also said Anonymous as my user etc.. really thought first my account got hacked after all that issues.
