NOTES ABOUT SAVED PASSWORDS: Clearing your cookies will result in the loss of any saved logins your browser has stored by activating a web site's own "remember login and password" option. If instead you use your browser's built-in feature for saving passwords, they will not be lost by clearing cookies and cache. To make sure you are not clearing passwords saved with your browser's built-in feature for that, consult your browser's documentation.
