Supporter is an old, deprecated type that I've not yet removed.
Protector is an old type that came about when an even old system was removed. It was given to members who had been helping out with editing content and minor moderation. There is no specific criteria in place for it to be awarded.
CodeProjet Associate is still a work in progress

The Who's Who pages used to have special terms for people having created some number of articles and messages, writer, personality, fixture, and the like. Half of those terms have been abolished by the new rep system, the other half (relating to message count) still exists, however the legend isn't present any more.

Fixed, expanded.
But not yet uploaded.

Thanks for a truck load of new nouns and adjectives. 
It still isn't clear to me what the words next to the message count mean; it should be explained on the page, or a link should be provided.
And if they were to correspond to Debator designations, I wouldn't be very happy about that, as the vast majority of my messages are posted in programming forums, and are either answers or replies trying to answer a question.

well, the table is in the FAQ now, but still that is on a different page.
On the profile page you could turn the magic words into hyperlinks pointing straight to the table though.

This has been going on for a week or two, but it took me a while to figure out what was to blame for my last visited flag occasionally getting reset.

When you visit, your 'last visited' date is loaded in order to mark which messages are new, and then updated with the current time in preparation for the next visit. If you click a link from the newsletter, and if this link opens a new window (instead of replacing the current window) then you're starting a new session which will load the last visit time that was just updated in your previous window.

When/why did this change? I've been reading the news at home before bed and having the forums still have everything unread when I first visit them the next morning for years.

you should not go to bed before having read all messages, Chris does not like that at all.

Nothing's changed at all. As soon as you start a new session, either by opening a new window, or by doing nothing for 20 mins then refreshing, your "last visited" date will be updated.
The only thing I can think of doing is, when you login, to check if you are currently logged in with another session elsewhere. If you are then we could suppress the update of the last visited date.
This actually ties in with an aold request from Shog to give users the ability to log out other sessions using their account currently active (eg. you leave an internet cafe, realise you're still logged in, so you remotely disable that login session).

I've been reading CP news for years at home without it impacting my last visited date when I return to work the next day.

However: I have an idea. Let me dig in a little.
[Edit] Found it. It turns out a change was made that allows us to record clicks a little better and this was inadvertantly updating your last logon. Fixed, and will upload later this evening.

Is this still happening for you? We've gone through the code, tested it every which way, but cannot replicate this issue anymore.

Yes it is. I clicked the daily news links at about 6:30 this morning from home. When I logged into CP from work a few minutes ago forums had been marked read as of then.

Have you been logged in at home as well?

Probably, but I only clicked the news links. I did not visit the forum, read any articles, or visit the main page.

OK, so to clarify (and apologies for being pedantic), the situation is:
1. You visit CodeProject.com at some point (eg the evening)
Your 'Last Visit' time in your profile will be set to that time.
2. At a later time (> session timeout of 20 mins) you open the Insider email and click a link. At no time have you visited CodeProject.com from any other server.
3. The "Last Visit: " label at the end of the list of forum message is set at some time greater than your visit from the previous evening's visit, and forum messages are not being marked as "new".
Is that correct?

Correct. The last visit time appears to be set to correspond to the time I click on the links from the insider. If I remember and it's sent early enough I'll note the time I click an insider link tomorrow morning to confirm this.
