Hi all,
I use Chrome. I have a number of passwords saved. But I think I found a security issue and was wondering if anyone wanted to see if they had the same result (or already knows about it.) Today, I was messing around with Chrome. I clicked on log out and then use another account. I created a new one using a non gmail account. When it came up, I still had all the same bookmarks, etc. So I went into settings and chose reset (advanced, at the bottom) as well as changed the default startup to be a new page. I then closed Chrome and rebooted the computer. I start Chrome, and log in using the new email ID, I still see all the previous bookmarks. And if I go to settings, passwords, I can see all the passwords for all the sites that belonged to my real Gmail account. But I am logged in using the new email ID account. The funny thing is if I go to settings/passwords, I can see all the passwords. But if I click on the option to view and manager saved passwords in your Google Account - on that web page, it says I have none... Very strange. And yes, the passwords are *'ed out, but if you click on the eye icon and enter the windows login password, you can then see them as pure text. Just curious to see if anyone else can replicate it.
