Logging in to adwords

Is there any particular reason why I have to provide both my email address _and_ password every time I log into adwords, when most other sites store the username/email in a cookie?

Or am I missing a setting somethere in the adwords interface to allow this?

I wouldn't mind, but my email is not particularly short, and it's just a time waster!

that might be a setting in your browser (IE or FF or whatever)...
and actually when (in FF) my session gets timed out and I refresh the page or click a link, it logs in automatically without asking me for login/pass... (cookie)
then again, I never store passwords in the browser, too easy for others to get those (when having access to your computer)...

Don't know if it helps but in FF my user / pass seems to be saved when I go back in to adwords.

yep, as I said, that is an option you can choose from...

I think google just does not set a cookie for this - there should be no need to change my browser settings when plenty of other sites manage to do this just fine...
