Description David Juran 2011-10-01 03:30:23 UTC
When a user is asked for a password, the password entry box warns if Caps Lock and/or Num Lock is enabled. In my opinion, the warning about Num Lock is not needed (when would Num Lock interfere with entering a password) and also confusing since it diverts attention from the more important issue on weather Caps Lock is enabled or not.
