Login Remember Box Unticked by Default

Is there a way to keep the Login Remember Box unticked by default?

You may be asking the wrong question.

In older versions of Opera anyway (haven't checked recently), Wand would remember how you had set checkboxes as well as what your ID and password should be. So the question may not be of changing the login form, but of changing the login data in Wand.

First let ask what is the purpose of the "Remember" check box on the "My Opera Mail" login page? Is it like the "Gmail" and "Yahoo Mail" login page "Keep Me Signed In" check box?

Thank you!

Yes. If it is selected MyOpera will set a cookie in your browser so that next time you visit the site - until you actually logout - you will not have to login again. If it is not set, then whenever you close the browser Opera will forget you were logged in.

OK. I ask because Im often on a public or work computer. If Im in a rush I sometimes forget to log out and just close the site, which would allow others to gain access to my email account if the browser is still open. Guess I got too used to Gmail leaving this box unchecked by default. Just need to remember to close Opera browser entirely. Im kind of surprised others havent asked about this since its typical for most other web based email accounts to have this box unchecked by default.

Thanks again for your help sgunhouse!
