Firefox was working fine on my old computer. Bought a new Dell with Windows 7, downloaded Firefox 3.6.15 and started using it. Checked all my options and selected "remember Passwords for sites" and "use a Master Password."

The browser will not store any userid/password I have to enter at any of the sites I visited.
