I looked at my privacy and security settings as prompted to do in Help, but cannot see why this keeps happening. I am asked by hotmail if password should be remembered, and I always click on the box to do so, but it does not work. Would prefer to use Firefox for hotmail now always as the new Bing thing that comes up in I.E. is annoying - part of the page is obscurred, it is slow to delete messages - terrible!

Remembering passwords for Hotmail (live.com) has never really worked properly for me.
Sometimes it has worked with some specific login pages, but MS always made changed that caused it to stop.
Currently the secure login page (https:login.live.com) uses JavaScript to generate the login form and the Firefox 3.6 Password Manager doesn't work on such pages. This may change in Firefox 4.0.

If you mean the box on the login page to remember you then that choice is kept in a cookie on your computer.
In that case you need to make sure that you have an allow exception to keep that cookie.
