Somebody tries to steal my WF password?

Hello everyone,

Today, when I tried to login my account, I noticed that there is an eye sign in the password input box which I have never seen before.So I stopped logging in ( I used IE ), and then tried to use firefox. This time, I didn't see any eye sign in the password input box.

Do you guys see that small eye sign in the password input box when sign in using IE? If not, does that mean that somebody tries to steal my password? How can I get rid of it?

Thanks.

    I almost want to venture a guess that you are using Windows 8?

    If you are it's possible that it is just Windows 8's new function where you can actually choose to see the password you type in instead of asterisks (*).

    I could be wrong though.

    I am using IE10. But why I didn't see that eye sign even several days ago?

    And I tried on other forum too. Now all of there have an eye sign.

    Dump IE - I can't understand why anyone would want to use they most targeted browser for hacker exploits

    I also tried to login my email account and I see that small eye sign too. I didn't see it even 2 days ago.

    Something must be wrong I guess.

    I tried logging in again, everything is normal. Honestly, I think it's just something related to your settings, given that it appears every time you want to log in. Try a different computer and see if that takes care of the problem.
