Password manager has flaws.
Firefoxe's Password manager has a flaw. It at times uses names for pw identification. Many sites today uses your e-mail addy for its name. When Firefox sees this it will ask should it update the pw. It doesnt seem to realize that this name is used across many sites. If someone mistakenly updates the pw, you wont know until you log in, which site had its PW mistakenly updated.
How do you disable / fix this feature.
There is also a auto fill in that seem to only rely on the site. This is the repair. If it were to be possible to make firefox use the sites info, it should alleviate the problem of mistaking every email address name on a sites password verification list as the same as evey-other.
Is there a switch for this feature.
thanx,
Jerome

This can be caused by JavaScript that modifies the password field when you submit the form. If Firefox detects when the form is submitted that the field is different than as saved in the Password Manager then Firefox offers to save/update this modified password. The solution (workaround) in this case is creating a block password exception. That way Firefox won't offer to update the password.
