marks like this~~~~~~~~.Why is this? It doesn't do this
with every site I log into but theres alot of them that
do.Howcan I correct this or is this ok??

This is a security feature to keep someone from reading over your shoulder
and finding out your password. Any good, secure web site should use the
same technique.
