How to log out
When you are finished browsing personalized UW Web
sites such as MyUW and WebPine, always remember to log out of these sites
and the UW NetID "weblogin" service before leaving your computer.
To do so, completely exit your Web browser.
This is the best way to prevent others from accessing your personal information
and visiting Web sites using your UW NetID as if they were you.

If you cannot exit your Web browser, use

end your "single sign-in" period, click this button:

Note:
These instructions apply only if you cannot exit your Web browser.
If you can exit your Web browser, but it does not always log you
out, check the known logout problems
for a solution. Some applications (e.g. Morpheus, Kazaa, Gator,
etc.) can prevent you from logging out.
