Hey groveman21,

Have you looked at the Usernames and passwords are not saved Knowledge Base article? There is a lot of good information in there.

If it's only a particular site you are having issues with, you can also remove the cookies from that site to make the site forget you if you've created a remember me cookie by going to Tools > Options > Privacy > Cookies: "Show Cookies" There might be a "do not remember" cookie for that site.

Hopefully this helps!
