I have my browsers set to remember all my login information. Although the information isn't always remembered, it's on my computer and easy enough to find if needed. The same goes for anyone else who has the browsers set to remember.
I'm not worried about being hacked, I have plenty of security software in place, some acquired and some of my own making. As far as very sensitive information, banks, CCs, etc., I have it set up so I receive immediate text alerts anytime transactions of $1.00 or more occur. I have tested them all and the alerts are immediate.
If anyone tries to access any of the sites from anywhere other than my computer, they are hit with a maze of security questions to answer, even if it's remote access through this computer. Â These security questions have been completely wiped from my HD. Â
I also use a drive wiper and grime fighter which both basically scrub the free space of my HD, removing any footprints, super cookies, ghost images, etc. It can be a pain in the keister, but worth it. I'd still be doing the same even if I didn't have my browsers set to remember.
Again, if your browsers are set to remember, your user names and passwords are on your computer and very easy for you to retrieve.
