Default I've been flocked!

I read several comments here about Flock, and decided that I am sick of having to sign into my accounts each and every time I sign into internet expl. I have DH of FF so it signs him into his stuff, but I dont want to confuse him, so I let him keep it. Flock is perfect! Thanks for recommending it. perhaps I can waste less time trying to remember my passwords for so many places.

it take a bit of getting used to, but I am automatically signed into my accounts, or message boards, or web spaces. no more digging for which password belongs to which account. I have memory issues, and have it all written down. I am so happy just to click the button and have it already filled in for me. Wahoo!

I always make sure all my browsers are set to NOT remember any passwords for Financial or Insurance related websites that I use.


I do know Flock is geared mainly for the social type websites - FB, twitter, forums, groups etc, so maybe the banking and such is not included in the password feature.

I'm interested to find out about the banking passwords and if they are saved or if you have a choice.

I have the older version of flock, I didn't care for the changes on the newest version.

Same with Firefox - FF 4 doesn't work with my Zone Alarm browser protection so i reinstalled the previous version FF 3.16.
Plus they made some other changes that I personally didn't care for.

I must be getting set in my ways LOL.


If you do have banking or other important passwords remembered - make sure you have a strong master password set on your browser, as well as a strong password for your computer.

I just stay logged into my forums and FB. Never banks or where I make purchases.

I can't remember the last time I was flocked.

I stopped using it. It kept signing me out, and then forced me to sign back in constantly. upset me, so I uninstalled it. I dont need more frustrations in my life.
