    I recommend setting up a master password as well to help protect your saved passwords.
    I have always tempered my killing with respect for the game pursued. I see the animal not only as a target but as a living creature with more freedom than I will ever have. I take that life if I can, with regret as well as joy, and with the sure knowledge that nature's ways of fang and claw or exposure and starvation are a far crueler fate than I bestow. - Fred Bear

    turn it off by deselecting 'save passwords' , or use a master password to protect them

    One of my favorite college professors always told me "You can't remember everything, write it down" and I do , I have two small note books at my lap top with all sorts of goodies in it, INCLUDING Passwords!

    yes, but......that's not very secure, should someone swipe your laptop, and your notebook of goodies.

    Use something more secure, like Portable Roboform on a USB device. It encrypts and stores passwords for you. You remember a single master password.

    Surely mending weasels is an honorable profession! It would be a sacristy to have that noble title relegated to the dust bin of history!

    You'd better not! I will not be the lone kiltie in Albuquerque!ith:

    If the venerated highlandtide can not help, we still have hypnosis, electro-shock and sodium penathol before we give up!

    What kind of a south Tejas Scot are you ensign 'Mender? Gonna let a wee little password give you a fit? is this what we expect from the guy who put the 7' bullhead shark in the Officer's pool? I think not!

    Oh and if you do get it reset, you might want to make it some thing easy for older grayer and foggier heads to remember... like KILT!

    I think we just discovered another 'Y chromosome trait' to go along with not reading the manual, 'push harder then', and never stopping to ask directions:

    Not recording passwords!!

    Firefox would never have a remember the passwords section if it wasn't.

    I only just found out about it too - the idea of such a thing being devised, or even required never occured to me.

    We cannot have characters dropping off the map - or X Marks, either. Ensure continuity. Write down your passwords today, before oblivion strikes.
