Forest Taylor: Is there anything that we can do to convince Yahoo! to use the password manager? Yes. Open a separate bug and assign it to evangelism. The opt-out feature was added to satisfy the strong demands of the financial community. But there is absolutely no reason that yahoo mail should consider itself in that category and chose to opt out. See all the dups of this bug and you'll realize how many people are agreeing with me.

"The opt-out feature was added to satisfy the strong demands of the financial community." Why do we have this button 'Never for this site', if you can't use it? Are we, mozilla and netscape users, really that stupid? The financial community can go to hell with their demands. Power to the people :)
Comment 16•23 years ago

The correct way to do this is to look in extensions/wallet/src/wallet.cpp and search for the sections of code that are bracked by #ifdef WALLET_DONT_CACHE_ALL_PASSWORDS. Rewrite that to be conditional code based on a pref setting. Only problem is whether or not the financial institutions pull the plug on the mozilla/netscape6 browser if we do that.

Most but not all the dups of this bug have to do with yahoo mail (see 101048 and 120512 for example and there are a few others). Therefore changing summary from yahoo mail login form tells password manager not to offer to remember pwds to Several sites, notably yahoo mail, opt out of using password manager It's true that most of the other sites are financial institutions and they have good reason (at least in their opinion) of opting out. So there's nothing much evangelism can do there. But sites like yahoo mail have no justification for opting out and these are the sites that evangelism should focus on.

this is not in the scope of the evangelism effort. They are using the available features of the browser. If you as a customer do not like that, please complain or use another service. doron, i say mark it invalid.

Comment 26•23 years ago
|
||
IMO users should have to have a way to force the use of the password manager, despite everything the site says.
Comment 27•23 years ago
|
||
I agree that the user should have the choice, even if it's not a default and activated by a hidden pref. A browser is a *client* application, and banks shouldn't be able to blackmail Mozilla into inconveniencing users who wish to make a choice - after all, users could walk around with their password details printed on their T-shirts if they really wanted to, so why aren't we allowed to instruct our browsers to memorise things for us? If it's difficult to activate (e.g. hidden pref / lots of warning dialog boxes), then it can only be done by someone conscious of the risks, hence there can be no *reasonable* case for anyone to block the browser.
Comment 28•23 years ago
|
||
There are two separate issues here so let's not confuse them. One is whether the user should have access to a hidden pref to override a financial website which has a bonafide reason for wanting to opt out of password manager. That is the topic of bug 124065. See also bug 63961 which created the ability for a site to opt out in the first place. The other issue is specifically about yahoo.mail, and whether it should be using this opt-out mechanism that was designed for financial institutions. That is the issue in this bug report. IMO, the answer is that they should not be and that an evangelist will need to get them to see the error of their ways. Please keep discussion in this bug focused on the second issue only, since there are other bug reports specifically for the first.
Comment 29•23 years ago

as I am not very mistaken, you can use the financial section of Yahoo with the same userID and password of the mail section. Even more if you sign into mail, you need not sign in for financial again -> the same cookie is used. Whether the yahoo financial section justifies to use a "bank opt-out" is IMHO another point.
Comment 30•23 years ago
|
||
Christian: If by "the financial section of Yahoo" you mean PayDirect, it requires an extra password in addition to your Yahoo ID and password. It makes sense for PayDirect to require this extra password, because users aren't as careful with webmail passwords as they are with financial passwords. PayDirect only asks you to enter the extra password once you have logged into Yahoo *and* established an https connection to Paydirect. The form that asks you for the extra password correctly uses autocomplete=off.

Jesse: I believe Christian meant finance.yahoo.com and the umbrella of other domains under it (banking.yahoo.com, loans.yahoo.com, insurance.yahoo.com, taxes.yahoo.com, etc.) which includes function for tracking nearly every piece of personal financial information you could dream up, including 401K, credit cards, stocks and bonds, taxes and more. All of this is "protected" behind a common login page hosted off of login.yahoo.com, which also happenes to be the common login of mail.yahoo.com. This of course brings up the irony of the fact that on a page where they prohibit us from saving userid/password in PSM, they offer a checkbox to have them leave a cookie and remember your login.

I had contacted yahoo regarding using the autocomplete=off in their login form long before mozilla supported the autocomplete attribute. They never replied back. Also, I tried the hack that is mentioned, but the password manager doesn't kick in the first time when I visit http://mail.yahoo.com, it only appears when I signin and then signout and then try to sign in. Think it has something to do with the way the current URL and the form submission URL. The first time I visit Yahoo mail, the location bar is http://mail.yahoo.com, while if I login and logout and go to the sign in page, the location bar is at http://login.yahoo.com. The form submits to https://login.yahoo.com.

It seem that Neil forgot to inform you about one little trick, javascript should be disabled the first time only! 1 - disable javascript for navigator (Menu/Edit/Preferences/Advanched/Script & Windo... 2 - now, visit http://mail.yahoo.com 3 - type your name and password here (password dialog will be displayed) 4 - re-enable javascript for navigator Now, your worries are over. I should know, because I'm the person who developed this little hack for MultiZilla, and it still works ;)

you know, i'm sure that doubleclick would be unhappy to know that i blocked all images from their site. i'm also sure that a lot of people would be unhappy to know that my cookies are killed whenever i close the browser. these options are still available in mozilla. i see no reason why i shouldnt be able to force mozilla to remember the password for a specific page. if yahoo wants to make their default to not-remember, fine. but it is my computer, i want to be able to override it.

Comment 46•22 years ago

As I've said in comment #26, there should be a way of *manually* forcing a password to be saved. I guess that banks have problems with the automatic activation of the pw manager. I'm talking of a context menu.. like.. "force the use of password manager to store this password". And there could be a warning "This site has requested the password to be handled with special care. Are you sure you want to store the password in the pw?" Would this be acceptable?

To make Mozilla remember your Yahoo Mail password, drag the remember password bookmarklet to your personal toolbar, and click the bookmarklet after entering your Yahoo password but before clicking the Sign In button. You can get the remember password bookmarklet from http://www.squarefree.com/bookmarklets/pagelinks.html#remember_password.

Why not let the USER rather than the site opt out! It's my browser and my password - I want to decide!
Comment 54•22 years ago
|
||
Rob Hill, see bug 63961 comment 1 in which I said exactly what you just said. Problem is that the browser would be blocked by all financial institutions if we didn't allow the sites to opt out.
Comment 55•22 years ago
|
||
IMHO think that Yahoo has more against mozilla because it allows blocking of images (not by default, mind you) This is simply a feature that is being abused by sites (UserAgent, anybody?). Therefore the user must be given the option to disable it. Anyway, would you work against the workaround from comment #52 ?
Comment 56•22 years ago
|
||
Yahoo is a the beta process to make a new webmail interface... in the FAQ the have a link to a feadback form, http://add.yahoo.com/fast/help/us/mail/cgi_beta it might be one way for everyone to contact yahoo and ask for them not turn off password manager.
Comment 57•22 years ago
|

If you don't want to be bothered with patching/compiling Mozilla, you can use a text editor to manually store your username/password in your .mozilla/??/??/??.s file for these sites. Consider two web sites: "A.com" allows password saving, "B.com" doesn't. Go to "A.com" and type in your name/password of "B.com". Then go edit your ???.s file and where it says: B.com UserName ~oaisjdfoaisjdf *password ~oiajsdfoij . change it to: A.com site_A_username_field_name ~oaisjdfoaisjdf *site_A_password_field_name ~oiajsdfoij . Or you can go look up the "obscuring" algorithm used in Mozilla and write a little utility to manage this password file.
Comment 58•22 years ago

I got the site names backwards in the last post, but you get the idea.
Comment 59•22 years ago
|
||
This is certainly not for the masses, but I'll comment on it anyhow. It will work only if both forms have the same labels for the fields. So you might want to accomplish this by first making a copy of the offending site and changing the html to not block the autofill. Then you would do as you discribed.

I recently filed bug #165102 and got pointed here (sorry my search didn't find this thread). Although I don't like the financial community's attitude, at least now I understand what's going on. Shouldn't Mozilla at least put up a message something like "This site has forbidden the use of stored passwords?". That would at least inform the user as to what's going on, and would have prevented me from filing a duplicate bug.

They don't observer the "autocomplete=no" attribute.
Comment 72•21 years ago

END USERS should ALWAYS have the option of overriding this on their own computer. there should be a, override-override in place as a preference. Go ahead and make it off by default, but if a user lives alone and has a passworded computer, there is no need for more passwords.

I'm not sure about the "all the credit card sites" comment as Citibank, DiscoverCard and MBNA all allow password manager to save the username and password.
Comment 77•21 years ago
|
||
Actually, Discovercard is the only one in your list that allows remembering passwords. Citibank and MBNA do not, and after checking, they both have the AUTOCOMPLETE="off" tag in their forms. Many others do to: My list of ones that I know don't allow it are as follows: Bank Of America (Banking) Bank Of America (VISA) MBNA Mastercard American Express Homecomings Financial (Home Loans) The Vanguard Group (IRA Accounts) CheckFree (Online Bill Paying)
Comment 78•21 years ago
|
||
Interesting, as it works for me when I go to citibank. Maybe I got my signon info saved before Mozilla started honouring AUTOCOMPLETE="OFF". I can't check at the moment as my main computer is on a ship in the Pacific Ocean somewhere.

Creating another bug will, of course, be duped to this one. Also, does anyone know which standard AUTOCOMPLETE came from?
Comment 81•21 years ago
|
||
Other components don't have this problem though, so opening a new subject would be counter-productive. This is the appropriate place to deiscuss the opt-out feature because the bug is clearly reported as "Several sites, NOTABLY yahoo mail..." I believe we are discussing the "several sites" referred to in the original post. Apparently, several people, including myself, feel that this issue should not be closed.

Mozilla bending over and taking it over this autocomplete thing is the bug. It better solution is to work with these institutions to make password manager better. That's a politics thing so I'll leave that to others. This bug is really about yahoo abusing the diable feature. Yahoo is clearly in the wrong here. So they should be disabled in mozilla which will force them to fix their web site so that another password is needed for the "financial" areas of their site (where autocomplete can be off) and they reenable auto complete for the rest. This is can be achieved through two lists. One is a built in ACO abuser list that ignores autocomplete=off requests. To be fair the list should be downloaded and cached every so often rather than built in so that when sites do comply they can be can removed from the list and old versions of mozilla won't then block the site. A web site may respond by blocking mozilla through the client ID string so it's time mozilla implemented a similar list for sites that abuse this ID feature. A client ID string manager. First an auto downloaded list like above with the most approprite ID string available for the list of abusing sites. The user can override specific site behavior through a custom site list that takes presidence over the automatic list.

As a new Firebird user and an older My.Yahoo and Yahoo Mail user, I support Mozilla's cooperation with Yahoo's and the financial sites' requirements, aggravating and obnoxious though they be. We Yahoo users can try to pressure Yahoo on this matter and threaten to take our business elsewhere if we dislike the inconvenience entailed by their rejection of autocomplete. If Mozilla takes any steps to change the browser to bypass Yahoo's refusal, I can just imagine Yahoo thinking, "Screw them! How many people use their browser anyway?" There are already too many sites that don't bother to work right with anything but IE. Let Mozilla make nice with Yahoo and the financial sites, and let Mozilla users pressure the sites to cooperate with us.

What's wrong with RoboForm? As I understand it there will always be some who will 'opt out' (banks, etc.). What's the point of fighting a battle you can't win (100% anyway)? Apparently they (the 'opt outers')have no control over third party sortware. Robo works perfect for me, and as far as I'm concerned, IT IS part of Mozilla. (Basic program is freeware by the way)

This is related to http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=245779 I have tried the user_pref("wallet.crypto.autocompleteoverride", true); three different bookmarklets and enable auto completion in the Web Developer extension. The setting made no difference at all, the bookmarklets and WD did, at best, work partially: If you opened the frame at ikanobanken.se in a new window and entered the login data I was asked if I wanted PW-manager to remember the password but the data was still not entered in the form, neither on the main page or the frame. At banco.se there was no difference at all. You can try it yourself at https://secure.ikanobanken.se/min_ikanobank/ (either this page or the frame with the form in) Enter any 10 digit number (e.g., 1234567890) in the first field and any four digits (e.g., 1234) in the second field and hit enter. If you have the regular page open nothing happens when you hit enter. If you have the 'form frame' open on its own and has either via bookmarklets or WD activaed auto completetion PW manager will ask you if you want to save the form data. However, next time you load either the main page or just the frame nothing is autocompleted. This is Firefox 0.9/Mac OS X

Comment 98•19 years ago

There's another issue here. Some sites' passwords won't save even though there's no autocomplete="off" in the code. This is because they use JavaScript to generate a SHA-1 hash of the password (with salt added) client-side and store that in a seperate form field prior to submission. They also blank the real password field to prevent the cleartext password being sent. Because the password field is blanked and Password Manager must not check until after onsubmit="" is called, Password Manager doesn't offer to remember the password. You can observe this at http://album.co.nz/ and also at banking site http://www.kiwibank.co.nz/

The same behaviour as described in comment #98 I find at http://www.friendscout24.de/ With javascript, they somehow manage to blank out the password. But how do they differentiate between the password a user typed in and one password manager types in?
Comment 105•19 years ago

What about suggesting to Yahoo! that they create another login page which does not use AUTOCOMPLETE="off"? If they didn't advertise that alternate login page, but instead just made it quietly available to only those of us clamoring for it and persistent enough to locate it -- wouldn't that solve the problem for everyone? Yahoo! currently has "standard" and "secure" login pages. I'm just talking about exact duplicates of those pages without the AUTOCOMPLETE tag. This is as close as it gets to being zero effort for Yahoo! to address. I'd suggest this to Yahoo! myself, but it's clear from reading all the comments here that others have better connections that I do. OTOH, if this is a good idea, let's all suggest this to them en masse.

Here is a way to add blocked sites without adding any extensions or scripts to Firefox: http://dotancohen.com/howto/firefox_password_manager.php Tested on Yahoo, Wachovia, Fabulous. (disclaimer: it is my site, I wrote it)

Maybe I'm dense but I don't see what autocomplete has to do with not recognizing cookies. If I go to www.netflix.com the first thing it tells me is my cookies are not enabled. I know this is wrong because my cookies have always been enabled and the problem started around Firefox 3.0.x when I had changed nothing. I suppose this duplicates some bug but I haven't a clue what it might be.
