Hi,

When I go to sign in to my Hotmail account, as I start to enter my password in the password box/ field on the sign in page, a symbol appears on the right hand side of the box. If I've entered some characters of my password and I click on this symbol (which is similar to a paw mark) the characters entered become visible instead of just being bold black dots.

What is this symbol? is it supposed to be there and do this? Or has someone hacked my computer or connection and getting access to my password?

Hope someone can let me know, as I'm a bit worried about this. I'm sure the symbol didn't used to be there.
