In my "Personalized Recommendations" section, i vote NO on some titles on which i have no interested, but after logout and login again, some of those i voted NO, shows up again in my recommendations.

Is it possible to fix this annoying bug?
Thanks

Are you getting these titles right off the bat or after you've gone through some recommendations first and clicked on the 'next' button a few times? Can you estimate how many titles you've looked at before seeing this behavior? And (I'm referring to the first post here) give us some some examples of titles that you have voted for but are still being recommended?

I have exactly the same problem. It first started out as 6 movies, but has ballooned to all those you have mentioned. It pisses me off and what is worse, IMDB does nothing to fix it. A good website would take the time to look at it and be responsive to it users and fix it, but IMDB does nothing. This problem has been going on for at least a half of year.
What I do now is just go through it and rate all the movies no and those that I have some interest in, I go to another website and read up on it.
Since IMDB has gotten a swollen head now and think they are the definitive on movies but they are not...
