Autocomplete..again?!
A page can still read keydown and keyup events while the browser's form-autocomplete dropdown is open, so a game that lures the victim into typing letters harvests autocomplete values stored for other sites. Demonstrated on Firefox up to 7.0.1 and IE 7-9; Chrome withheld the events. A short greasemonkey script is offered to show whether autocomplete is enabled.
