That would be so smart. Then the next person to use your computer and steal your information. That would be such a great idea. Poindexter.

I do it at home. I also have many complete strangers over and they have complete access to my computer when I'm not around so I can't monitor their use.

If someone has access to my home computer, they coulda easily swiped my mail pile to get actual statements with account information (last I looked, unless you specified to receive them electronically, bank pages don't know all the info) or looked into my filing cabinet for much more information then is displayed on my credit card page where I pay my bills.

On Firefox, it doesn't even try/ask if I want to save secure financial passwords, even if I wanted to (for my banks website).

Nobody is ever near my computer while it's unlocked without my full knowledge, and even then, I never save financial passwords.

My financial institutions don't let me store the passwords. They are smart.
