Hey, I am not sure how to attach screenshots here, but I
just
encountered a pretty horrible security bug in via GMail.  I
log in to
Gmail at work for personal messages, and have received
several from my
wife today, which I read and replied to.  This afternoon, I
had not
received an email in a while and pressed the refresh button
on my
browser (Firefox), and I was logged in to MY WIFE'S ACCOUNT,
looking
at her email inbox.  I don't even know her password, so I am
sure I
have never logged into her account before.  Clearly this
example is
not a major security problem, but it could easily be a
problem under
other circumstances.

Has anyone else seen this before?
