The e mail id and password will be stored in the computer if you clik the chek box "remember" So never clik this box if you are using a computer which has got access by any other person

When you say computer, it is only hardware like monitor, keyboard, cpu etc.  It will not be stored in the computer. e-Mail ID means the address of the person in cyberspace.  Unless you reveal your ID to others they would not know about your e-Mail address and they would not be able to communicate with you.  Your password is what matters.  If others come to know of your password, they can open your e-Mail box in cyberspace or the data of the e-mail stored in your hard disc when you browse.  It can be stolen by certain theft softwares called keyloggers. As you go on typing your password to open your e-Mail inbox, the thief would be recording the same in his computer by using the keylogger stealthily fixed in your e-mail.
