Did you EVER log in and have *remember me on this computer* checked off? This would save your password in the cookies, although it is encrypted, someone may still crack it. Ha, its like the library i go to, down the road from me, ya load up aim and there is about 15 different aim names saved on there with the password, waitin to be logged in (extreemly fun! ) I would guess that the person used a keylogger, it records every button clicked on the keyboard, i would suggest changing your password, and being extremly CAREFUL when you log in, to check your email.

Regarding the other question...Well the pc that everybody uses its always on, you don't need to login to that pc only if you want to check your personal mail on Yahoo, google,hotmail, etc, etc. pc never ask me if I wanna it to be remember on that pc.
I ask ANOTHER employee at work and he told me to go to tools, internet options and under temp. internet files delete cookies and files then to go to the history and clear that out....still I was surprise when I saw my user ID and password on the desktop of that pc!!! You mention a Keylogger?? is that a software???



Thanks for your respond Dillon!!



A Keylogger is a software program or hardware device that is used to monitor and log each of the keys a user types into a computer keyboard. The user who installed the program or hardware device can then view all keys typed in by that user. Because these programs and hardware devices monitor the keys typed in, a user can easily find user passwords and other information a user may not wish others to know about.
Also, users who are using a hardware device and have access to a computer can easily connect these devices to the back of a computer, often without a user knowing about them, and then disconnect the device and connect it to another computer to obtain all the information.

Aprentice08 since you are concerned about your privacy or have sensitive data may wish to consider anti-keylogger protection software that is designed to prevent and stop hardware and software keyloggers.

Here is a link to an antirootkit( keyloggers are also included in rootkits)
