    G'day All,
    From the word go I have had problems with Yahoo's "Remember my ID & password on this computer" login box. There is nothing wrong with my autocomplete in Windows XP & yahoo keeps giving me the runaround. Problem is that I cannot get Windows to remember my login & password to Yahoo. Any answers?

    Agree with subratam; if some scumbag succeeds in sinking a Trojan onto your system, the Autocomplete file is many times the first place that they will go looking for personal information. Good luck. (hi, subratam)

    Maybe it's Yahoo acting up.

    I use Yahoo as my homepage.
    With Opera's wand(password manager)I usually have two entries of the exact same data(same password,same user).
    It must have something to do with the home page being slightly different.
    That never happens on any other site that I go to.
