Do any of you use those toolbars that auto-fill your info into web pages?

Like the Google toolbar and MSN toolbar, both will auto fill your info when you're filling out some type of form. I've been contemplating if I should use one or not. I know that there are obvious security risks. But it speeds things up so much when you're filling out forms for websites and what not. What's your take on it? Good or not good?

I use Google Toolbar with no problem. Of course, I don't use it for auto filling CC numbers, but for name and addy it's great.

If you're concerned about security as well as privacy, use Roboform. Its the best solution for all web form filling, including passwords or just name/address etc.

So I'm guessing that a lot of you guys use it? I figured it wasn't too safe but it's such a convenience. Can the Google toolbar be setup to automatically fill in the info or do you have to like right click and then tell it to fill in the name, and then the next box, etc. I know with the MSN toolbar you can have it auto fill everything one time.

No. I like to type in everything every single time. I don't use save pw, I logout everything.
