I have saved many usernames and passwords in firefox. So, when some of my cousins use my computer i've seen them logging in to mylot. Some days ago i noticed some replies that was not made by me. I see some replies are stupid. I know i can't delete them by my own. I feel very bad when i think what others will think of me. Do others use your username and password that is saved in your browser?

Hi minfas! I think you must be very, very careful in future and make sure that absolutely no-one else can use your account other than you. It is absolutely against the rules here on myLot. One account may not be used by more than one person. If you are spotted doing so then you will lose your account I have seen this happen here so please ask and insist with your cousins and anyone else who uses your computer that they absolutely do not use your account. If they enjoy it here too then why not suggest to them that they join as you referrals then you would be earning too when they decide to participate

hi minfas, nobody else uses my password and username. My pc here at the office is not used by anybody else Even at home, only me and my husband uses the PC. And I have my own browser, aside from the default browser. so when my husband uses the Pc, he uses different browser so i don't need to log out on certain sites like friendster, yahoo, etc. maybe you can do that also take care

Nobody is interested in Mylot at my home. So I don't have anybody who uses my account. I wish my husband will be interested in it but he doesn't understand why I like Mylot:) By the way, I also use Firefox and I save password and username in my browser. I love China

Well lately I haven't been saving my passwords and usernames into Firefox, because I find that if I accidentally get logged out one day, I would have forgotten my password by then and thus have to try a huge number of possibilities before I get it right. If I have to type it in every day however, I'm more likely to remember it. Thank goodness I don't share Firefox with anyone though, so I don't have to worry about other people logging into my myLot account. I do use my sister's account on our Vista however, since my mom locked mine with a password since last summer as punishment.

hiii minfas...Good discussion yeah..I am only one who uses my account..I will save my username an dpassword in firefox but no one will open my account..I will use my personel computer for accessing mylot..So no one will use my computer so that i can only access my account..It is very risky thing that anyone will access outr account if they post any rude responses in mylot..Definitely our star will goes down and our earnings will also be slow..So we must be careful..Happy mylotting...

No, I do not let others do this. Heck, I don't even let my own husband use my account on here. Although he rarely ever comes onto mylot I'd rather him look from his own account. I'm a bit paranoid that he might mess up my account and people would think it was me when it wasn't. So I use a different browser than he does when I mylot and when I am done I close it. He's not interested in using this browser so I don't have to worry about him messing with my account.

My fiance and I are the only one in this house with accounts on mylot. We keep ourselves logged in but we are not worried about others seeing it as we are the only ones that are here besides his parents on most occasions. If there is someone else over they either know to not bother with it or are courteous enough not to. I am sure that people who read this message and know you here on mylot will understand.

Hey minfas. Yeah, same here. I save my user name in my laptop but fortunately nobody else is checking my computer. My bf comes to visit me and sometimes he will use my computer but he is not interested in the websites I usual visit, lol. And he thinks that mylotting is a waste of time, crasy bf. Well I guess that is strong point of living alone. Next time you need to be careful with your computer when your cousin comes coz he is obviously not only visiting you, haha.

I do save my stuff in my browser. No one in my house uses my accounts due to the fact that they respect me. They understand that this is my account and they respect that. I think that it is horrible that people would do this to you in your home on your computer. People should have more respect for each other in this world.

Why don't your cousins sign up for their own accounts? In this way, everyone earns.

DONT allow it to happen at any cost. Dont save usernames and passwords anymore in your browser. This is almost dangerous. You should keep in mind that you are participating and fully involved in a popular social networking community.So with your views and opinions, you are just exposing yourselves in the best possible way. So at this time, foolish or unwanted replies from your cousins can really harm your impression among the members. And you cannot prove that its of not your mistake, later. So the best thing is to prevent from misusing your name by others. I am well aware of such things and so i will never save username or passwords in my browser and will never disclose them at any cost.

Hi minfas! Yes, that will be kinda disappointing when other people will logged on to your account. Nobody uses my account and password and I am glad that I have my privacy still intact. It will be frustrating for me to learn if my account will be used by others. Take care and have a great day! lovelots..faith

Thank goodness that we all have our own laptops, so no one logs in my computer or whatever. No one in our house--except my mom, probably--knows I MyLot. Besides, their find reading and answering questions IN ENGLISH a chore so it's tiresome for them. MyLot's all mine, haha!!
