I'm using Norton Internet Security 2010 with the feature Identity Safe to store my logins with the option to autofill the fields (username/password) which is also working great.
The problem i have is, that the autofill is also done on pages which are no login pages!
Example: After login to a forum i go to my profile page. Then my name "Thorsten" is replaced with my login name "erevo".
2. Example: After login to a forum i go to the management pages of the forum for configuring the email parameters the forum is using like Pop3 login and passwords. By visiting this page, NIS2010 is replacing the password for the pop3 account with the password i'm using in the forum.
Ok, if norton is autofilling the fields in a form are marked green... however the original information is overwritten. Second Problem: If a field is replaced outside the view of the current page (at the end on a long form) and the form is saved, you have send wrong data to the server.
I know, that i can disable the autofill feature for some pages, however you have to pay attention to all forms in the Web.
My question or understanding:
NIS2010 is storing the loginURL, the username and password. If the same URL is called, the fields are autofilled.
What is also triggering the autofill option within the same domain, but on an other Webpage?
Exampl.
Domainename.de/login
Domainname.de/config
Thanks for your answeres!
