MY BANKING IS HANDLED THROUGH A CERTAIN CREDIT UNION. THE CREDIT UNION HAS SECURITY FEATURE THAT YOU ARE COMPROMISING BY RECORDING A SPECIFIC PAGE AS A BOOKMARK "post login script page's should never be eligible for automatic bookmarking to a home page." This should never be done as that page becomes a shortcut to my bank account! THIS CREATES A SECURITY ISSUE for me as I could be locked out of my bank account. Some sensitivity and a bit of common sense is called for here!

Additionally; I have an Amazon Account and want my bookmark FOR AMAZON to remain at The Sign-in page. However, you opt to delete my bookmark for an advertising bookmark that does not take me to an Amazon Login. This creates an inconvenience and a problem.

One more item: I do not use any on-line tax preparer. NEVER! I do not use Turbo-Tax, H&R Block, or any other tax preparation service. MY BOOKMARKS GET DELETED SO YOU CAN PLACE AN ADVERT ON MY HOME PAGE THAT IS NOT JUST UNWELCOME BUT A SERIOUS INCONVENIENCE.

See:

You can create a bookmark that links to the amazon login page but I'm not sure if such a bookmark will keep working as the URL www.amazon.com/ap/signin URL looks rather long with a lot of data appended. What is wrong with starting at the Amazon home page and click the Sign in button for best security?

Note that you always should log out to ensure that the session ID stored on a web server is invalidated and can't be reused to access pages that require a login (authentication). A browser might load pages from the disk cache, to prevent that either clear the disk cache or use Private Browsing mode to access sensitive pages.
