DHMTL menu retains 'My Forums' information after log out

I logged out this morning, exited the browser and turned off the machine. When I restarted the browser this evening, it restored the previous session (the logged out screen). When I clicked on 'My Forums' (not sure why I did :)) it listed my subscribed forums.

When you say "the logged out screen" do you mean the screen that says "Cookies cleared"?

If so, then that is correct behaviour. The menu is generated before the logout request is processed.

If you mean after clicking Log Out and after navigating away from the "cookies cleared" page you get when the request is processed (e.g. going back to the forums or viewing a thread without being logged in) you see My Forums information then that is not correct behaviour.

However, I've just checked this myself and the latter does not happen at least on Firefox/Win 7.
