i have "Remember passwords for sites" checked in firefox>tools>options>security settings, but whenever i turn on my computer, none of my login info has been saved, requiring me to login from scratch (gmail, yahoo mail, SimHQ, etc.). what's up?

Ah, I had the same thing. I found a solution on the Mozilla support forum, but I can't lay my hands on it right now. It has to do with a corrupted file.

I have had the same problem. Delete the cookies.sqlite file with firefox closed. It will rebuild a new one and then it will work. Don't know why this works, it just does. The file is in your profile folder.
