Password remembering

Tim · **Posted:** June 7th, 2009, 10:44 am

Hey everyone, over the past couple of days I have been prompted to input my Username and Password into site like the forums and Runewire (same goes with Youtube and even Hotmail). I think this might be from the addons that I have but I'm not sure which one. This only started to happen recently so I was hoping you giys could help me figure it out.

Thanks,
~Tim

If you have multiple usernames/passwords for a specific site, you have to specify which one before it will autofill the form. Though they might not be different accounts, if you typed an uppercase or lowercase letter for a username, it will think it's a new name. Right click on the page you login on and select Page Info. Under security, check the passwords saved (it will only show you the accounts for that site). If there are multiple accounts, delete as many as required to show only one.

I check that and only has one account but my problem is that when I click the "Remember me" box, it doesn't remember me when I start up my computer and go to the sites.

Sometimes they don't load for me even though they're there, and then next time I open Firefox they will be remembered.

Are you sure you aren't accidentally clearing the saved passwords when you clear your browsing history? I know Ive done that a few times.

If you use CCleaner, make sure you're not deleting passwords there too.

My problem is still going on. FireFox will remember the password, and I check the "Log my in Automatically" button thinking and I still get logged out every time I turn on my computer. Most of the time I turn off FireFox and it still happens, anyone know what it's going that?
