Automated login to websites is the very attractive opportunity for a modern man who uses Internet actively. Having infinitely many web accounts, unique passwords and logins we spend so much time filling our login information in the web forms. Lets say, I have ten accounts on different websites. The average length of my login is 9 symbols, of password 10 symbols. When I enter the website, I spend about 15 seconds on remembering the information I need to type and about half a second to type a single symbol. Thus, to login all my ten accounts, Ill spend about 5 minutes! Of course, 5 minutes is not a scary number, but think of it: its the time I spend not on the internet surfing, I spend it on bare typing the information. And what is it, if I have 20 accounts? Not to mention that when you have a large amount of web accounts and strong passwords, you can plainly forget your information.
Today we are offered to auto login websites where we have accounts. We can do it by using a password saver built in many browsers Mozilla Firefox, Opera, Google Chrome, Internet Explorer. When you fill the login form, the browser asks you if the information should be saved. When you say “yes”, next time you enter the site, you wont have to type your information. This method cant be called secure as the passwords are stored openly, without any protection, and anyone who uses the same computer can access them.
If you can create a script or a program to auto login websites, you obviously dont need to read this article. And if you cant or dont want to spend time on it, you can take advantage of special software designed for effective password management.
Such programs save your passwords and login websites automatically just as built-in browsers password savers do. But whats very advantageous these programs dont keep this information without protection. Commonly, password managers encrypt login data and protect it with the only password to remember.
Many password managers have a wide set of additional functions: bookmark manager, working as a toolbar for a browser, random password generator. These options provides comfort and security to your internet surfing. All your information are securely saved and you can easily auto login your favorite websites.
