[dba-Tech] IE8 or Windows 7

Actually, now you mention it, I've got a similar issue - I have a couple of sites that remember my username, but refuse to atuomatically enter the password. There was an update recently that made it work for a day or two last month, but then it's reverted to type and doesn't any more. I'm using IE8 and XP SP3...

That's interesting - now that you mention it, there are several web sites I visit regularly that 'refuse' to remember my login info even though I've checked the 'remember me' box time and time again.  It never occured to me that IE8 might be the culprit...if there's a fix for this type of thing I'll be interested too.
