Well SM 2.1RC1 seems okay except for how Password Manager deals with a split login when the password has been previously saved. I input my login user ID on a Web page, which causes a new page to display for the input of my password. Immediately, I am asked to input my MASTER password. When I do input it, the login password does NOT appear in its input area; no amount of clicking on the input area will make it appear. This worked in SM 2.0.14 and in versions prior to that. -- David E.
