  logging on.  We lost about 5 orders yesterday due to this bugs and others have 
  decided not to order because they are in fear of their information being 
  exploited.

+ The comment should read:
+ 
+ In addition to automaticalling logging on this also allows a customer to view 
+ the last customer's, who ordered with a blank username, information including 
+ their address, phone, email and other information found in the checkout screen 
+ (luckily not the CC).  We just had this happen on our system and it was due to 
+ a blank user being created through the UI using the order desk.  I think two 
+ stops should be put in place, require the Customer ID on the Order Desk AND do 
+ not allow a blank username as a proper login when checking for credentials.  
+ This way if a blank username creaps into the system in another way it will 
+ atleast not be valid for logging on.  We lost about 5 orders yesterday due to 
+ this bugs and others have decided not to order because they are in fear of 
+ their information being exploited.
