Hi.

There is a security flaw at the 'enter master password' stage of the process.

For maximal security, I do not store my master password at all.
Upon visiting a page with pre-stored form fields, PasswordMaker brings up the Master Password dialog box - however, even if this is cancelled, the fields EXCLUDING the generated password are still filled in.

This isn't a massive flaw, but still, it opens up the possibility of various account details being exposed, when they shouldn't be.

Yeah, this has been reported before. In the interim, you can not submit the form to prevent anyone from seeing the populated data. This is partially why PasswordMaker doesn't have auto-submit of forms.
