That little button has nothing to do with autocomplete, that little button tells the website to put a cookie on your machine with login data. That is 100% unrelated in any way to IE’s autocomplete feature. If you go into the FR login page you’ll even see they mention the cookies: “Convenient You will remain logged in even if you close your browser. Logging off clears all cookies. (This is how Free Republic has always worked.)”
Funny how the people who throw the most insults so often are the ones who have no idea what they’re talking about.
It has everything to do with avoiding any popups. Once you put in your userid, your password and click the little “Remember my password” button, that's it. No popupus, no userids, no passwords again, EVER!
So what's your problem?
You just crack me up. Here is a guy that boasted that he had removed all IE8 from his computers after downloading it, only for it turns out the lying sucker was still using IE8 anyways.
You just can't trust open source fanatics to tell the truth..ever. They will lie and cheat every singe time about Microsoft products they know nothing about, in their pathetic attempts to spread as much FUD about any Microsoft product as they can.
