This all started when I was browsing through my options and looked at my Saved Passwords. There were two entries for my spam e-mail website. I deleted one of them. Later, when I had to view spam, Firefox no longer remember my password. When I checked the Saved Passwords again, I went with Show Passwords, that area was blank for my spam website. So I deleted that entry also. At this point, Firefox should have asked me if I wanted to save my password the next time I logged into my spam site, but it doesn't do that. I have added several new passwords to new sites, and Firefox saved them correctly, this website included. Oh yeah, I'm currently using Firefox 7.0.1

The website may be using autocomplete=off to prevent Firefox from saving the name and password.

You can remove autocomplete=off with a bookmarklet to make Firefox save the name and password.

It remembers my log-in name, just not my password. But I did try what that page recommended doing, just in case, but nothing happens. Looking in my Saved Passwords confirms that nothing happened, my Spam website is still not there.

I tried the Saved Password Editor, its neat! But it doesn't solve my problem. My Spam Website is now in Saved Passwords, but it still doesn't enter my password when I want to log-in.
