Heyho Thomas, that is exactly the behaviour on "failonclear == false". It will only set the screen to the fail color, if there was a failed login attempt (pressing return at least once). Due to the mentioned security intentions there is no way to reset the failed state. If you don't want this feature at all, you can just set the failed color to black as well. > Anyhow...

There has been a discussion about the failonclear feature a few months ago, if you want to search for it. --Markus
