It sounds to me that 2.c actually remembers your login in the password manager, that's why it fills it in once the page has loaded.The difference you are seeing there is that you're not logged in right from the start - without even needing the password manager to fill in your username and password in those fields (as in both 1.x and 2.x the password manager doesn't do more than remembering those and enter them when you encounter username/password fields).This makes me think that there's some difference in Cookie handling, as probably that website remembers your credentials via some Cookie(s) stored in the browser.Robert KaiserAdd me to the list of users sticking with 1.19. Forms Manager and passwords work just fine for me. Why go to 2.04 when it's a step backwards? If security is the only reason, I'll take my chances.
I run both, but stick with 1.1.19 on my primary machine. It still does what I want it to.
...and I even run across the odd gov site that still wants you to use Netscape 4.7, mostly for it's certificate handling...I've been trying to get those types on the SM bandwagon for about a decade...patches?...we don't need no stinkin' patches...
