Go to "user control panel," then "profile," then "edit account settings." It's right under there. :) Although you do need your current password in order to change it. :tongue:

Also, if you are using Firefox you can tell it to "remember" your password so you won't have to enter it each time you log in. Obviously there are security issues here - that would not be a good idea if other people have access to the computer that you use.

That informs a clear bright eye
There are unexpected revelations
In the company of ravens.

^Google Chrome does that, too, but yeah it would be bad if you're sharing a computer...
