Re: Photobucket upload system

If it becomes a major issue for a lot of members then I will remove it Jonny but TBH I have never heard of anyone using this sort of thing before and I am not expecting a rush of new registrations from the Alzheimer's society either

Firefox, Opera, safari, and IE7 all have password managers,

Firefox has several extensions with greater functionality,

Windows has several programs such as AI roboform which have greater functionality.. As does linux..

Re: Photobucket upload system

The same rock as 99.9% of the worlds internet population I think

When using passwords I just dont trust them to any system. I generally use a combination of 3 different passwords for anything so If I forget a login then I can usually find the right combination before the 3 strikes and out system kicks in.

When setting up or modding a site, I have to take into consideration the majority of users and as I said before, if more members have issues I will remove it but it takes a lot longer to do that than switching off a password manager as I have to start digging through code and shit

I'm using Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-GB; rv:1.9) Gecko/2008061015 Firefox/3.0 which is the most up to date stable release.. although when they fork from branch again I will be back to using nightly builds to beta test...

It may be for you, but it is not the case for me.

Some of them, such as sxipper, do far more than passwords, any online form can be filled in with one click (although I do not use them for bank numbers etc), and they can generate far stronger passwords than anyone can think up..you'd be safer using one than not!!

It's not a huge issue, just pulling your leg a bit but I think you knew that
but it is a pain in the ass for me
