I happen to be one who simply does not wish to have any program remember or store passwords of any kind, thank you. An irritating problem I have with Firefox Password Manager is that whenever I log on to any site and the Password Manage box pops up and offers to save my password...once I select "Never Save" I expect that choice to be honored and would appreciate it if it were. But it simply isn't. I must continue to select "Never Save" each and every time I log onto any and all websites. What does "Never" mean in this context if the Password Manager continues to circulate the same query every single time? Is there any way I can simply disable Password Manager and thus avoid this irritation...which is getting very tedious and old. Please?
