PayPal Observation
I wonder how many others have noticed that when using PayPal to pay for a transaction, the login to the PayPal account used is not closed when the transaction is completed? Let me know if you are seeing something similar as if this is exclusive to only my system, it is time to find out why.
I have noticed this whether or not there is a "go to my PayPal account" link in addition to the "return to seller's site" link after the payment has been processed. Even after going to the seller's site, I can open a new tab, put in the PayPal address, and be in my account without having to log in again.
I know the login is supposed to time out, but the fact that it does not exit when a transaction is complete is a bit unsettling.
Another observation is that if there is a "return to seller" link, that link needs to be used to complete most transactions fully. I now make a habit of opening the PayPal link in a new tab to ensure the account is logged out once the transaction is fully completed.
