I've done as this. Yes, is putting there the email address and the
password. but the password ins not shown in plain text..

there is a possible scenario.. I'm in an Icaffe, check my email, logout,
leave that Iexplore page open when I leave and someone come after me and
put that javascript.. 

still, if somewhere somehow the password appears in plain text..  no, to
x-files scenario

You have to check:

"Remember userid & password (not recommended if you share this
computer)"

Then, log in.  Log out.  Then put javascript:alert(document.cookie) in
the address field in the browser.  I think this is more of a feature
than a bug. I think may be more of a problem if you have IMail
calendaring turned on.  I forgot how it works, but I think the cookie is
stored whether or not you check the "Remember" box at the login screen.
