Netscape 6 does have an auto save for usernames and passwords. You can select whether you want to save or not just like IE. However it does not support the AutoComplete of form fields.

You can find everything you'd ever want to know about Microsoft Internet Explorer's AutoComplete feature at MSDN:

You won't get the same prompt using Netscape because only IE has the autocomplete feature.

No, when IE asks to remember the PW, it says:

"Do you want Windows to remember this password so that you don't have to type it again the next time you visit this page?"

i remember ie5.0 asked me, to remember usernames/pw. if i would do so, the thing you asked would happen. i'd say, it's the browser.

but anyway, i don't like those things, no one should remember my pw except me...

I think the behavior you're referring to is built into Windows 98 and above. It's the O/S that saves the log-in info and generates the little drop-down list, not the site itself.
