This would be especially helpful on sites where I type my password in, so I don't ever forget the passwords. If I do, I can just bring up the image and voila! Very nice of microsoft to help us out.

Why not? The only difference about that and the current history with links and some metadata is memory space.

M.D.V. ;) If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about? Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.
