Description Rafael Rodriguez 2009-07-09 13:15:48 UTC

Version:            (using Devel)
OS:                MS Windows
Installed from:    Compiled sources

In the Windows installer, the password for the proxy is not hidden (with asterisks for example), but shown in clear text.

It's usually considered a security best practice to mark the password fields as "hidden", or whatever the windows equivalent is.

I tried this with version 0.9.5-0. Any password input is displayed as '***'

Tried the last version and now looks good for me ;)
