Really Need to Figure Out Why Pass Manager Doesn't Work...

... on certain sites.

Password Manager in latest version of Client security doesn't prompt to remember password for following sites:

Hotmail
Facebook

Discover Card
some other financial sites I need access to.


I am in process of overhauling all my passwords to 128bit strength via a generator, and I must get password manager to work with these financial sites.

The problem is when logging in, Pass Manager never prompts to save password, so I can't put in entry. Is there a manual way to add info?

What I did notice is, if I purposely enter the wrong user id or password, pass manager will prompt to save information. I can then go into manager and change it to the correct user id or pass, but this doesn't work. It doesn't automatically fill later on when I access the sites.

thanks.

Both Hotmail and Facebook execute Javascript commands in the background while you're entering your username and password. I haven't watched Hotmail very closely, but I know Facebook sends back a request to server right after you've tabbed out of the email field, even if you do not submit a form. I don't know what they're doing or why they're doing it, but whatever it is it may be tripping up the password manager.
