Manually delete the cookies (internet options). Odds are this is what happened:

Someone logged in.
That someone then clicked on a link someone gave them that opened to a thread on the board that used a different board style (i.e. user normally views board in vB3 style, the link opened to a vB2 style look), and was prompted to reenter login info.

This is a common problem that's one of the board's weird quirks.

No problem.

For point of reference (for everyone), if you follow a link to the board, and it prompts you to re-enter your login info (and you know that you're already logged in), and the board view is different from your usual view, you're going to have a problem logging out.

Essentially the board is placing two different cookies on your computer (one for each board style), and trying to log out will only log you out of one and not the other. The only remedy is to go into your internet options and clear the cookies.
