Yes, Yahoo knows about the frequency of signing on, in fact, IIRC, it is in
their "sign-in help" screen. I also have written them about the cookie
problem and the need for repeated sign-in's to get recognized. I have come
to the conclusion that signing in may be somewhat like changing the
Autoexec.bat file --- it doesn't apply until you exit and re-enter Yahoo.

An accidental click is always possible...<<
I don't know whether unclicking the "save password" box would remove the
passwords from the .ACF file, but it is likely, since this would be for the
person that doesn't like his/her passwords kept in ASCII text on their
computers.
