What does "Keep me logged on" do?

The sign-in page used to offer to "Remember my Password." Now it offers "Keep me logged on." What does this mean? I am loathe to do something that I'm not sure I can undo.

Is there a way to get the sign-in page to remember my password?

Sign in page for what, your email? and if so what email program, or is it web access? (via your browser)

I refer to the Windows Live Answers sign-in page. Before, maybe with IE 8, there was an option to "Remember my password." Both my and my wife's sign-in would pop up and we could choose which one to log in. Now it only offers "Keep me logged on." I wonder if that's the same thing?
