I just removed a member from 4 different forums, verified the entries are removed from the forum_allowed_members table in the DB, but he can still post in them. Is it stored in a cookie on his machine also? Will he have access until the cookie expires or is deleted?

I don't think it's stored in a cookie

Odd, he was still posting when he was removed from them without a doubt. I checked directly in the DB.
I banned him totally for an hour last night then reinstated him and he hasn't posted in them since though.

Ew. So when i remove someone from a forum they will stay until they delete their cookie or it expires.
Has anyone done a mod to delete a members cookies? Is that even possible?
What really sucked is, I removed him for misbehaving. Then made a topic about it... imagine my shock when he posted in it.

You could do it at a stretch by adding some code that targeted a specific member and cleared their cookies, but they would need to be active at the time since only a user can actually delete their own cookies, but it wouldn't be too difficult to implement
