Old Firefox just remembered text entries. New Firefox is a pain in the a** - it will not remember text entries unless I follow advice (from who r these people!?) that has me disable passwords in order to gain text entry, now it won't remember PW. The old Ff did both without all this hassle. U make MIE look better. B
