I only store passwords for critical stuff like that on my home computer. And then you have to use a password to get into my user account.
But that's a good point we should all be aware of!

The laptop, a Sony with a 12" screen, which was snatched was my only computer.
I now have a Dell with 13" screen at home and a Dell Mini 8 for the road.

Bummer. I guess that's a good argument for always having a computer that never leaves home. Not that a thief couldn't still get in and take it.
Well, none of the places where I store financial data allow me to store passwords in my browser anyway. But I suppose a really good thief could find a techno-buddy to dig out that information somehow. But, hopefully, not before I've had a chance to call around and change the passwords.
Hmmmm...feeling far less secure than I was just a few minutes ago.

I guess that's a good argument for always having a computer that never leaves home. Not that a thief couldn't still get in and take it. Unfortunately, I know how true this can be. Fortunately, the only financial information I had on that computer was for my campaign, and that was all public knowledge (if someone were to ask for it, anyhow), and easily reproduced.
