Hey wcstone,

You can go to Tools >Options >Security and unclick the box for Remember passwords for website. This will turn off the pop up asking if that is what you want.

If it is only certain sites that you don't want it to remember, go to Tools >Options >Security tab click on Saved passwords. This will give you a list of sites that you have saved a password for. Just find your site and delete that entry.

There is a lot of useful information in this article about the Firefox Password Manager. It should answer any other questions you might have.

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"

Hopefully this helps!

Thanks for the reply but I want to turn off the 'pop up' that asks if I want it to remember my password every time I visit a site that I have to give a password. I don't want to see the pop up ever again but I don't know how to get rid of it.

If you follow the steps in the first sentence, you shouldn't get that popup anymore.
