    Hello,

    I'm really sorry, but I honestly have no idea where to post this ...

    Can someone please tell me why Firefox 4 does not save passwords and usernames for forums and other websites ???

    Previously I would automaticly be logged in everytime I visited a forum.
    Or whenever I wanted to visit my Adsense account...

    Now I have to enter my username + password every single time :( ...

    Can someone please tell me how I can change this :p :D ?

    AND, I read you can turn off your surfing history, so SE's like Google can't see where you came from and what websites you have visited ....

    How can I turn this option off :D ?

    Websites remembering you would automatically log you in if you have a valid cookie.
    You need an allow cookie exception.
    Go to Tools > Options > Privacy > Cookies: Exceptions
    to keep that cookie, especially for secure websites and if you let cookies expire when Firefox closes

    I have not encountered the same problem with my upgrade but right now I have multiple add-ons that are not working with this version anymore. The new firefox can remember new passwords though.
