I guess since the books are free they want to make you work for it?
I even went to one of the free books by signing in and bringing up a list of books to purchase. The free books were there too, but they still want your name and email address to download them.

Hmmmm . . . there is a feature that automatically placed itself on my computer the last two or three times that I installed either a Windows revision or the Chrome browser (the one that I use). It automatically fills in all of the fields in a form on a webpage. I routinely use it for filling in exactly the kind of form that you're talking about, but it also fills in forms with many different fields (occasionally it puts the wrong information when there is an unusual field name, but it is easy enough to scan over everything before submitting the form). Wish I knew more about where the feature/app came from and how you might get it. If I had to guess, I would say that it is an extension of some kind. Probably browsers other than Chrome also offer a similar feature. MobileReaders, any answers?
