Password problem

I have install via simplescripts in a webhost zenphoto version 1.2.2. I set a password guest user in an Album via amin > edit. When a user in the first time download the page then the Album is password protected. If someone give the password then the other times that the page downloaded the album displayed without a password.
What goes wrong?

    Passwords are "remembered" on a computer via cookies. Also, album passwords are not required for admins.

    hello,
    Thanks for the immediate response.
    I know that passwords are "remembered" on a computer via cookies but the problem is that ONLY in the password guest user happens this and dont in other occasions for example admin zenphoto password or in my others appliccations. Although I delete cookies in my browser the problem persist.
    Also I need password guest user for my friends and don' t for me as I have admin priorieties.
    So, what happens?
    Thanks

    So, tell us a little more about the circumstances. Are all your viewers using the same computer or does each have his own computer?

    hello,
    The problem is the same in differents computers. I found that when I delete cookies and personal data from computers via my browser mozilla, then zenphoto ask for password guest user but ONLY for the first time. Its strange because this happens only in the zenphoto password guest user and not in the zenphoto password admin or my other applications passwords. Is there anything to change in zenphoto in order to don' t remember computers the password guest user?
    thanks

    Passwords will always be remembered. The way WEB scripts work it would be almost impossible to use Zenphoto if it does not remember the password--your user would have to re-enter it each time a page loaded or refreshed.

    There is no difference in the remembering of passwords between admin passwords and user passwords, so I do not know what would be causing you to see a difference.

    There is a define in the current development release which will let you change the expiration time of cookies.
