758725 2009-03-23 09:38:00 Hi, each time I go onto a website I need to relogon like PC World but Firefox does save the password but I need to press logon each time, it does not save it for auto logon via cookies.

Cheers

Go into settings and untick 'cookies' to be sure.

Addons - I only have Xnet usage meter, Skype, Sun Java and Color Mgmt.

758730 2009-03-24 07:14:00 Which version of FF? jwil1 (65)
758731 2009-03-24 07:30:00 Go to your profile folder and delete cookies.sqlite and cookies.txt

Cookies.txt will not be there if you're using FF 3

Location for profile:
C:\Users\<Windows login/user name>\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\<profile folder>
