That would shoot down another SMA for those who still wish to support FS. -----Original Message----- From: jfw-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:jfw-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Rob Sent: Monday, August 02, 2010 11:47 PM To: jfw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: Re: Characters in a password field it should be added as an option. we could use it only when we are alone at home.
