When I bring up a history list and hover my mouse over the Login page, the blurb (address?) that I can see includes my password. Am really not happy about this!!! What can I do to prevent this happening?

Am using IE.

Thanks.

That was Original Tech (in case you were wondering) and it should be all fixed now. Hurrah!

Sorry about that. It shouldn't happen in future. You may want to clear your browser history to take the old copies away - if you are worried someone else in the house will look at the history and see your password.

Ok, thank you - that's helpful.

BigTech is currently tied up with something rather new and complicated but I will talk to him about this as soon as I can.

Hope you can bear with us...

OK, so what browser are you using (Safari, Firefox, Internet Explorer)?

And how exactly are you getting your History up?

Oh dear, plug - that doesn't sound good.

It's not happening to us at MNHQ - as far as we can tell at the mo - so maybe it's a browser thing.

I'll ask the Techs if we can look into this a bit more for you...
