How can I prevent Firefox from automatically filling in my passward in every site I visit? I have NO security now when others use computer.

Everytime anyone on this computer goes to my AOL or YAHOO email, Firefox automatically fills in my password and whoever is using my computer can read my email or check bank balances or anything else. I have just started using Firefox and now have NO security. Can anyone help me change the security settings?

Also, make sure you have a password on your user account - if you share a computer without separate Windows accounts, they have access to all your information regardless of whether you stay logged in or not, and regardless of whether passwords are saved or not. Make everyone else use the guest account or their own limited account.
