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!

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.
I don't have a problem. You on the other hand have now fully established that you have absolutely no idea what in the hell you're talking about. You think website cookies and IE's autocomplete feature have anything to do with each other at all.
