atrix 2 - how to secure

I am confused.....

I didn't like using a password on the phone since I thought it was cumbersome to type it in each time.

However, I'm worried that if I insert my passwords into the various URL's someone could access these if phone is lost.

I have roboform everywhere, but think it also is a pain in the neck to use on the phone.

Suggestions appreciated.
Thanks
Barbara

They cannot get the actual passwords, no worries there. However, if you had the browser save website ID's and passwords so they are automatically entered to save typing them each time then they could access those websites. Of course they would have to know the sites you use, either by a bookmark, browser history or lucky guess.

If you're really worried you can:
A. Not let the browser save passwords or...
B. Use a pattern to lock your phone or...
C. Use a password to lock your phone or...
D. A+B or A+C if you're really paranoid.
