I suspect that one the one which doesn't ask at all you don't have a password. I
wouldn't be happy with that, but I am security conscious in the extreme.
You could also run Seamonkey which will ask you once and only once, and which
has a built-in password and forms management system. Handles mail, NNTP, RSS,
etc. Will even track twitter feeds if you want. Yes, that's a plug, I love the
browser, mail, HTML editor and chat all in one place.
