I don't want to install Firefox 5 because it's not compatible with Roboform -- how do I stop it from asking me to update every time I open Forefox 4?
Every time Firefox 4 open I get a box asking me to update. I don't want to do this until Roboform brings out a version compatible with Firefox 5

Roboform actually is incompatible with Firefox 5, not the other way round.
Obviously daniel didn't read the whole question. But anyway, which came first, the chicken or the egg? The point is that Roboform either can't keep up, or doesn't want to. They already screwed up one of my accounts, so I'm switching to LastPass (which is Firefox 5 compatible)
I do not use the product, but:
Roboform 7 is compatible with Firefox 5: http://www.roboform.com/support/news

Thanks. It is Roboform 7 I have been using for some time now (and earlier versions going back to when it was free). That item about it being compatible with Firefox 5 is brand new. As far as I am concerned they left it too late.
I'm not happy about throwing away something I have paid for (three times now, over the last couple of years) but I need something I can depend on and Roboform isn't it. They totally refused to understand or fix the trouble v.7 brought to my other computer.
So far, LastPass looks good.
As far as I'm concerned the problem is with Firefox, not Roboform. I love Roboform--it has always worked great for me until this latest Firefox upgrade. I'm looking for a new browser.
