Firefox stored a password for me at Att.com/wireless. How do I unstore this password?

I entered a password for att.com/wireless and Firefox stored it for me such that i did not have to enter it whenever I wanted to visit att.com/wireless. I created a new password for this account and I do not want to store it or have Firefox remember it. When I log into att.com/wireless, Firefox continues to remember my old password - even though I have now changed it to a new password. How do I delete the old password from the memory of Firefox?

  1. Go to Preferences (this is usually under the Tools menu)
  2. Go to the Security panel in the Preferences
  3. Locate and click on the Saved Passwords button
  4. Locate and select the site you wish to modify in the listing
  5. Once selected, click on the Remove button to remove the saved password

I can not find "preferences" under "tools" which appears on the main homepage of Mozilla. Where do I find the "tools"? Where is the"tools" of which you are speaking? I am new to this, please help me. thanks very much

If you can't see the menu bar, click on the drop down menu (Orange Bar that reads Firefox) that's shown on the top left of your home page, then go to "Options," then check the Menu Bar....it will then show File, Edit, View, History, Bookmarks, Tools, Help.....Choose Tools, then choose Options and you can change your password setting there.
