When I logon to my account at http://www.buy.com/default.asp (using my saved
password) the master password popup never appears.  I have bought quite a few
things from them over the last month or two and had been checking this site to
track my orders several times, so I am positive this is not a fluke.  When I go
to that site directly from "home" with or without cookies cleared, or from the
link in my email (thunderbird version 0.8 (20040913), the master password popup
never appears.  And enters in my saved password without asking for my master
password.  

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Go to http://www.buy.com/default.asp
2.Create an account or logon to existing account
3.login to the account then the username and password will show up filled in 

Actual Results:  
My username and password was filled in without master password entered.

Expected Results:  
To have my master password entered before the page would enter my saved password.

You guys are great I hope you know how much you all are appreciated.
