Re: Remembering Passwords in IE

[Chris.Adams () UK WORLDONLINE COM (Chris Adams)]

It remembers passwords by districts. For instance, say I have subscribed to
a members only site, hosted on
 
www.host.com/foo <http://www.host.com/foo> 
 
and another one on 
 
www.host.com/bar <http://www.host.com/bar> 
 
It will remember my login (to either foo or bar) as being a login to 
 
www.host.com <http://www.host.com/> 
 
Yeah, It's a bug.

Subject: Remembering Passwords in IE

I have IE enabled to remember my passwords for website logins and such.  I
am subscribed to two separate message boards with the same username but a
different password.  If I login under Site A and then try to log into Site B
it remembers Site A's password and not Site B's password for when I logged
in last.  Would anyone consider this a bug of some sort.  Should IE not
remember the name and password by the webpage not just the username?  Anyone
else have any similar experiences like this?
