Tabitha has it on the dot actually.. I misunderstood your original post!
If you access PB, from whatever internet account, if you are on the same computer, it will show you your name and password. But if you went and used a different computer, one you'd never used before, it wouldn't be there..
PB leaves a cookie - which is a small file which contains your log on information (but in a way no one else could read), and every time you connect to PB, PB reads that little file, and your user name & password is there. This is what also makes the "new" indicators work - again, PB leaves a small file that tells PB when the last time you visited was, and PB very cleverely marks all posts posted since then as "new".Hope that makes sense (and sorry if you knew it all already, but it might of some use to someone!)
