The answer is the same as this question.
"Why do we need to lock out the doors/windows/gates when we go out of the house?"

Rite on!!!! but that make sense only if u check ur emails at a public pc/place. If at home i think i just close the website without logging out. not much effect i think sweat.gif

good example from friendster...
after u login the friendster account, then u close the browser or access other URL...
later u access friendster again, i believe u not need the login and passwords to enter our account...

So far I notice only friendster will let you continue using the account you previously login, if you didn't log out, eventhough you've close your browser. For hotmail, it will still ask for password to re-login again. So I never bothered to log out. tongue.gif
