15<para>According to the financial institutions, the following hack makes your
16browser insecure. You have been warned. Many sites use an MS-IE specific tag
17(autocomplete=off) to prevent autocomplete from working in some forms. This
18tag is now supported in mozilla to appease the financial institutions. As per
19the requirements of the financial institutions, they will not even accept a
20solution where this a preference option. However our opinion is that it should
21be in the hands of the user. To enable autocomplete to bypass
22this restriction, we need to make a slight modification in the code.</para>

24<para>Open the file <filename>extensions/wallet/src/wallet.cpp</filename> in
25the mozilla source tree and search for the line:
26<screen>#define WALLET_DONT_CACHE_ALL_PASSWORDS</screen>
27Then delete or comment out the line. Now, if anyone tells you MS-IE is user
28friendly, give them this example!</para>
