    Save passwords with Firefox

    Firefox knows keep your IDs and passwords to avoid having to enter it each time you connect to your mail, forums or other services protected by a password. You can even decide to wait and let Firefox remember passwords once you have already entered the protected site.

    So when you identify a Web service, a bar appears at the top of your browser. Click Remember to save the username and password you just entered.


    The next time you encounter this form, the login information will be pre-filled.

    To access the list of saved passwords, click menu Tools then Options.


    Open the tab Security. Click Saved Passwords.


    You can remove the password by selecting them and clicking on the button Remove.

    Finally, click on the button Close then OK.

    Re: Save passwords with Firefox

    Launch Firefox and type into the address bar: chrome: / / pippki / content / resetpassword.xul. Click the delete button. The problem is this: everyone who has access to the computer and Firefox can run locally, can be easily read out the stored passwords. The tool works fine but you can easily retreat the password from the Mozilla Firefox which is not good.
