I have done this mistake two times when my friend standing next to me and I typed my username and instead of tab I pressed caps and type password.. Though I did clean it within a fraction of second. but alas.. even after using net from last 7 years.. I did the same mistake which I did when I was in college.. Have you ever done this kind of mistake??

Hi lovedude! I have been very careful always when logging in to a site especially if it's my personal email and there's someone beside me. I'm just aware always I can say. It's a common instinct also for me to enter user name first before password so I never experienced that and I never would want to. I always look first where the cursor is placed before typing in as I'll be doomed if somebody got access to my account because they'll know all about my whereabouts. I guess something else was in your mind when you logged in that time and that you have been mistaken. I think I'll be more careful next time if ever this happened to me.

Yes, i do make the same mistake as well because my fingers are faster than my mind. It's always the case when i'm rushing to check on things, i will either type my password in the username box or be typing both username and password in the same box. Though i don't log in when i'm on the road, but i do check my mail with my smartphone, and i don't want anybody behind me to see what i'm typing. With that, i've preset my mail settings and i only need to turn it on or off to receive new mails.

Yes I have done this in the past and I get so upset when I have done this in front of others because it makes me feel like they are going to remember it and use it when I am not watching. I use roboform now so I do not have to type any id and password anymore but if I had to manually type them in the future I am sure because of rushing that I could accidentally do it again.
