Knee pain and bike positioning tips

I get very sore knees every day now.
Its really bad when I sit down or get up from a chair.
My knees and upper legs is where I feel the pain most.

What should I be looking at on my bike, such as positioning.
I think I have the right set-up, and the bottom of my stroke, my knees have
just a slight kink in them, as they say you should have.
What else could be causing me this knee pain ?

Thanks,

Tony

I had a similar problem some time ago and all I did was slide the seat forwads as far as it would go,solved my problem, seems I was reaching too far. It may work for you.
Hope it helps
