Doug, there is a way to avoid having to type in ID and PW (as we must for access to SI). Replace the bookmarked URL with another containing your ID and PW. Example... anysite.com is changed to http://YourName:YourPass@www.anysite.com I tried it with SI and it works. Disadvantage: all SI URLs now show your PW. Since I often post URLs as references, removal of my PW would be a hassle. Gottfried PS: once I have signed on for the first time after starting my browser, I leave the browser open all day. I just disconnect the modem connection for long absences. As long as the browser is not exited, SI recognizes me.
