I want the ability to save passwords(login) any time I wish, if they are not saved already. How do I do this?. I tried to alter the _autologin. js file but apparently my text editor(notepad)(win7) is not good enough. If I click "not now" I never get an option again.

See username and password not remembered.

Some sites block the saving of passwords. One option you can try is the Saved Password Editor, it allows you to manually create new entries in the password manager for sites that block the saving of passwords.

@TonyE. Thanks. That's is what I needed. Your link was off (copied and Pasted) but the name and search provided me with the add-on. Again Thanks.
