When accessing Webmail via http://web.orange.co.uk/p/web_...email/

My rembered password is being displayed in clear.
This is a major breach of security.

Any way of getting rid of my stored passwords without losing them all.

Can you clarify exactly where your password is being displayed in clear text, is it in the browser? URL? packet capture?

The password is being displayed in clear in the password box of the login screen - see the URL in my original message.

I've got round the problem by
1 Deleting the Orange cookies
2 Not clicking Remember Me on the Login screen
Windows is fine at remembering my ID and Password without using the Orange Remember Me !!

Well it works fine in IE8, chrome and firefox here so it looks like a problem locally on your side as opposed to an issue with the Orange site.

This certainly isn't a security issue.
