I have set the cookies in my web.config . .
<authentication mode="Forms">
<forms loginUrl="~/Account/Login.aspx" timeout="360" requireSSL="false" cookieless="UseCookies" name=".Mordevayne" slidingExpiration="true"/>
</authentication>
as well as machinekey.
<machineKey validationKey="80B18E7CF458B1F8A7C91E656AA89CD49904C693C5F2A90926C43E970A2B0350E7B76507BB8F1F99597F595DD64D2934A2A8B192A013E9EFA8C79046931AB6EA"

. . But the user is not authenticated whenever the Remember Me checkbox is checked when I uploaded it in a hosting site; But when ran in localhost, tt works fine. I wonder why?
By the way here is my log-in code:

Dim cmd7 As SqlCommand = New SqlCommand(query7, con7)
cmd7.Parameters.AddWithValue("@username", myLogin.UserName)
con7.Open()
Dim rd7 As SqlDataReader = cmd7.ExecuteReader
rd7.Read()
If rd7("isBanned") = "yes" Then
'then check if banEnd is over
Dim banEnd As DateTime = rd7("banEnd")
If banEnd > DateTime.Now Then

Response.Redirect("/BanReason.aspx")
Else
loginswitch2 = 1
End If
ElseIf rd7("isBanned") = "no" Then

End If
rd7.Close()
