logged in as author of game after downloading it

I have seen this a few times in the past few days.

It is happening in a lab, windows xp, new version of scratch.

When somebody downloads a program written by a member of the class, they somehow get logged in as that person.  I am not sure how to recreate it, but I have seen it on two separate days, on four different computers.  Different users each time.

That's about how it went.  I will try to recreate it today.

Re: logged in as author of game after downloading it

It seems to be based upon the search.  When you search, you get logged on as another person who is in the same lab.  Right now I am logged in as a different person than I was before the search.  This happened at least ten times during the past hour with a variety of users experiencing the same problem.

Re: logged in as author of game after downloading it

The only people i get logged in as are people who are on the same lan as me.  At least five or six other people in the room have encountered the same problem.

Re: logged in as author of game after downloading it

It may be related to the last person who has uploaded from this lab.  I went to the scratch site and was logged on as the most recent user to upload a project in the lab.  I waited a few minutes and reloaded and was logged on as a different user, who had just uploaded a project.
