I have had to change some of my passwords over the years. Ebay was one of them, and some email accounts too. Unless you super careful, there is all sorts of ways your secure data can be read. The browser saving your passwords was one security flaw at one time. I don't know what the current status is, but I don't let by browser store many passwords. Especially anything that might have money in an account. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ref an earlier msg. Here is an update on my SSD free space write. Not recommended unless necessary. I thinks it is the same with defragmentation. Not recommended but there are caveats. tomshardware.co.uk I have given my SSD one pass on a free space write. Its done it in less than 5 minutes. If that breaks it I would chuck it as I only like computer stuff that is rugged and reliable. However I would feel sad in that case because the SSD is really fast running windows. I have all my three OS's on the same SSD. The normal HD's are still clunking away. They will take hours.
