Subject: Renderosity Cookie Files

Hi, When rummaging through my cooies the other day, I found two Rendersity Cookies. One contained my user name, and the other my password. The values of both were instandtly readable. Anyone with access to my Mac could, in theory, take this information and sue it elsewhere. In an environment where computers are shared, this could be a problem. Any chance of disguising this infrmation in a cookie, or providing a Log Out button on the site that removes it if a user requires?

I use cookie monster and it seems to do a good job. Just do a search for "cookie monster".

IMHO, it would be preferable to have the choice between two options : accepting cookies, and then having your login/password remembered, or refusing them, with the inconvenience of having to retype login/password each time. As a member of the anti-cookies league, i would appreciate not to have these little bugs crawling inside my computer when i come here... I remember that some times ago, cookies were not a requirement here. Good ole' times ;)

I'm not that phased about the cookies - they help me not to have to remember passwords etc., but on the shared systems I use, I would like to have a log-off option on the site. All it has to do it delete the cookie.

Solution simple... Don't save the username & password when logging in... no cookies .. no resords...

I use ATGuard, when a cookie arrives, I have the option of letting it in, letting it in only once, block just this time or block all cookies from domain. I can then later on edit this list if I wish.
