Hey dude, I can reasonably assume your are able to log in due to a session cookie that's stored in your browser. I doubt that steemit uses an plain/unobfuscated password as a cookie for log us in.
Might just have to make a new account. I'll keep looking.
Yup, looks like you just have a valid general authorization session cookie. They don't automatically save the string, you had to copy and paste it to a protected location.
Okay, I should have just looked hard, here you go.

Thanks for the reply. I strongly believe you are right. Frankly, I'm still scratching my head over this one; I don't understand how this situation is even possible.
