I am just curious...no intention at all on doing this. Really for my own safety.
If someone uses some one elses computer and lets say they log into Myspace...is there a way to have that computer remember the password with out someone knowing about it?
Again. I am not a psycho I am more concerned for myself.
Thanks!

You could use a key logger program. These programs hide in the background a record every keystroke.

yes I suppose. they could momentarily run a program that saves the passwords entered into a computer then remove the program along with the passwords it collected, but they would need access to your computer for awhile and then need to access it again to remove the program otherwise the user will know what you have done. Somewhat tricky, but it can be done.

yes, if u use ie or firefox and u are browsing internet then when u enter information (user name or password for example) it can be stored in the cache of the browser, u can delete this information or even refuse to let the browseres store these information (simply when the browser ask u to remember this information u have to click no) or use a utility to clean up the cache.

yes if it is the first time on a computer it will ask if it wants it saved or not, but if they have that disabled it won't pop up and tell you if it should you have to manually do it! or you can be like me and use your fingerprint for passwords such as myspace or msn!

it is very easy to extact all the saved password and RAS(dialup)
accounts and email cliant passwords and even windows account passwords.let me tell you unless you put more then 20 car alpha numeric passwords with hardware encrypted file system and internet unplugged also with big lock to your computer room there is no safety

with the exception of keyloggers the computer only saves the password when its told to

yes they can.
but they don't.
You need special software to retrieve/steal passwords.
