There are many ways to circumvent password saving restrictions if the enforcement is supposed to happen on the client side. Some years back I used xdotool[1] to manage keyboard input and mouse movements to automate otherwise unautomateable things. While it's a crude approach, it could be easily used to automate password typing and mouse clicks. I'm sure similar tools are available for Windows. -- Samuli Seppänen Community Manager OpenVPN Technologies, Inc irc freenode net: mattock [1] <http://semicomplete.com/projects/xdotool> ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Developer Access Program for Intel Xeon Phi Processors Access to Intel Xeon Phi processor-based developer platforms.
