After the latest update all my saved user names do not automatically load on all the sites I have user manes saved for. The usernames and passwords are still in (tools-options-security-saved passwords) but the user names do not load and I cannot get them to load again automatically I have to type the user name in on all sites I did have them saved them for. Then the password is remembered. What has Firefox done

Note that your System Details List shows multiple Flash plugins.

  1. Shockwave Flash 14.0 r0
  2. Shockwave Flash 11.7 r700

You can find the installation path of all plugins on the about:plugins page.

You can check the Flash player installation folder for multiple Flash player plugins and remove older version(s) of the plugin (NPSWF32) and possibly (re)install the latest Flash player.
