"we always recommend users only visit sites and click on links that they trust to prevent against potential attempts to steal login information." "We are constantly evaluating ways to improve the autofill flow to protect our users while still offering a convenient login experience," said Dan DeMichele, vice president of product management at LastPass.

"The only vulnerability identified is when an attacker has modified the website you're logging into, in which case they can steal your password whether or not you have autofill enabled." "The autofill also provides an anti-phishing protection as Dashlane only suggests users' information on the specific website linked to their password," Rivain added. "This ultimately increases their chances to continue using a password manager and thus become more and more secure." "By activating autofill by default, our users perceive the value of a password manager sooner," Dashlane Chief Technology Officer Frédéric Rivain told us. Another password manager, Keeper, will autofill passwords on a site-by-site basis with user permission. The Safari and Brave browsers did not autofill passwords, Toth said, nor did the 1Password, RoboForm and Bitwarden password managers. Toth found that most major web browsers, including Chrome, Firefox, Edge, Internet Explorer, Opera and Vivaldi automatically filled in usernames and passwords by default, as did the stand-alone password managers LastPass, Dashlane and Sticky Password. Malicious scripts can and sometimes do create invisible login fields that you can't see to catch those credentials without your knowledge, as three researchers discovered in 2017.

Just wonder if this is done on purpose to confuse users?Īnyway, I'm rather irritated of the way we customers are treated by avast! - first by "fooling" us to install unwanted software, secondly by not answering us, when we are contacting them.Autofilling tries to fill those fields all the time. Besides that, the Swedish translation was sooo bad - instead of Avböj (Decline), the button had the text Stanna (Stop) - very confusing, unless you haven't experienced that earlier. If just clicking the Continue button, I would have had Chrome installed. In the third and last, the Windows 8 PC, I had to decline the option. That installation also wanted to add a toolbar, which I didn't need either. Besides that, the text about Chrome was written with tiny, tiny letters. I had to remove the, already, checked alternative.

The Windows 7 PC was the one I wrote about, when I started this topic. Nothing to be checked or unchecked on that PC.
The XP installation installed Chrome automatically, which I had to uninstall afterwards.
If so, it would have been much easier to send the license number by email.Īll the installations acted in different ways, when they were installed - they even looked different. I can't even imagine, that it's the same version as the free. All three were installed from avast!´s link, which you get AFTER you've payed for the licenses - all from the same place, where you get the license number. Those three have OS XP, Windows 7 and Windows 8. I pay for a license that is for three computers.
