Do you save all your passwords online?

On most of the forums that I visit, I save the password for that page so that it allows me to be automatically logged in or simply click the login button with the login fields filled out before hand. This is the easy way to login. Though I have to login to my email almost everytime as the password is not saved. This is a good thing, just in case the computer were ever stolen. Thankfully, some sites such as bank and Paypal don't allow you to save the password on the computer as that could be a security risk.

Some sites I will and some I wont. Just depends what the site is. Like for ebay, paypal and the bank I will not save my passwords.

None of my passwords save as I delete cookies automatically when my browser shuts down. In this way, no one using my computer can login to any of my accounts even Facebook without permission.

Sometimes I save passwords by mistake as most browsers will offer this save password option by default. Sometimes, I click the save password button by mistake trying to shut that little window down but usually I'll just ignore it and go about my business on the site and when I click the link to go to a new page the box disappears anyway.

Sometimes, I will come back to my computer and go to login to Facebook and see that it saved my login info. And, no one really uses my Facebook but me, but it would be nice if they didn't save that info.

Maybe I'm just paranoid, but whether I do or I don't I won't even divulge that information online, because you never know who's lurking around waiting for the information to sneak out...lol

There is likely little harm in saving your password online at a forum, unless you are also using that same password for your other important accounts such as email, bank or Paypal accounts.

All my logins are automatically filled with data so I wouldn't need the effort to type in my user name and password. But I am only using our home desktop and my phone for the purpose. I haven't used another computer for that yet. And I have a list of my passwords so I would avoid the problem of forgetting the password and requesting for a reset. That usually happens to my friends who are senior, aw, it's really sad.
