PasswordMaker makes educated guesses about userid and password fields unless you "train it" using the Advanced Auto-Populate tab. If you use Advanced Auto-Populate, only the specific fields you define are auto-populated. Otherwise, PasswordMaker guesses as best it can. The HTML names of the fields it populated must have matched its guessing algorithm.
Okay, if are going to provide meaningful explanations, and thereby ruin my day.... (Oh, yes, I suppose I should, and therefore will, say, "Thank you."
Another, albeit somewhat unrelated question, but related to my learning process about PasswordMaker: Am I correct in believing that there is no way of changing the master password without that process changing all the site-specific passwords as well, given that the hashing uses the master password to create the site-specific ones?
I ask as, when I started to use PasswordMaker, I inserted a rather lengthy master password, which was not a problem given that, at the time, I had little on my computer that would have concerned me about security had the machine been stolen, used by an intruder, or perhaps been subjected to national security audits...).
Since then, I've expanded my computer on-line use as I've finally obtained DSL service, making such things as on-line banking more feasible. Thus, I'd like to change the master password to something simpler and not have it stored on-disk and in memory. Any possibility of doing that?
