    Hi, I'm hoping my problem is easy to fix but I've tried everything & can't work it out. I have windows 7 on my desktop computer & I have facebook on there. My problem is that the password seems to permanently saved so anyone who turns on my computer can go straight into my facebook.
    Any help with this would be greatly appreciated thanks.
    Cheers.

    I think this one is kind of easy. Try logging out and then log back in but make sure the check box is not checked where it says "keep me logged in"...

    Thanks for replying AtlBo, but I have tried the obvious things already. That's what makes me think it might be a setting in windows 7, but I can't find where? Cheers.

    It's your browser saving them but you haven't said which one. If it's Firefox see HERE for details of how Firefox remembers passwords. If it's another browser tell us which.

    Thanks heaps Earthling. It was in my browser settings. It turns out my browser is actually Internet Explorer, but thanks to your help I was able to fix it. Cheers guys.
