Sorry, Cookie topic again:

>>>>If you do access websites that ask you to enter a personal password, do not use the same password that you use for your ISP account. Many websites will store the password in your Web browser's cookie file, which means that any website can see your password.<<<<

That little file called cookie.txt. If you use on-line accounts that have "Save Password Feature" and you use that feature. If someone copied that cookie file, they could install it in their computer and access all your accounts. Anyone that has access to your computer that is.
