I use Google Chrome & it asks if I want my passwords kept, it is faster than IE too.

there is no box to uncheck there is only a bit in browser history to say how many days i want to save pages i have visited.

if it were these problems why does my ebay, t-moblie, talktalk, and scottish power accounts remember my details. when first logging onto them internet explorer asked if i wanted the password remembered and i clicked yes but this has never happened with this forum.

I will PM you - along with a screenshot.

Hi I dont now what your problem is but been advised it could be your settings but what I dont no, Iv'e had a look in mine and you could check in your
Tools
Internet options - general
tempary internet files- middle catagory of three
settings
I have automatic set in (check for newer versions of stored pages)

Once u get onto the forum right click on any page and click on 'create shortcut' and it will put an icon on your desktop which you just have to click on to get to the site, then all you have to do is click on the MBforums at the top of the page to bring you up to todays pages.. I tried firefox, liked it, but... it would sometimes refuse to open the pages and time out..

Rehabilitation can be a slow process Don, but it is good for the soul.

Good luck with the last chapter.

Panzer you could try signing up again as a new member just to see if it remembers the password

One crackpot with my username is more than enough, looks like i will have to lump it and at least its only the password i have to type in now.

Kevin

I said earlier that i dont have a box regarding deleting browsing history and i can only specify how many days i want to save page history.

Thanks anyway looks like i will just have to type in my password which is a 50% improvement.
