What do I do to memorize my password when I log on?
I just got a new computer and when I access my Scottrade accounts, I have to type in my password each time. It was memorized on my old computer. How do I set my password permenantly?

hello, websites can specify if browsers should be able to save username/passwords (through the autocomplete="off" attribute in the login form in the html source code) - this is often the case when a higher level of security is presumably required by those sites.
you can either install an addon or use a bookmarklet to circumvent this restriction.
On firefox it is so easy as you can do this :
just do one thing whenever you login to your account there is pop up comes which says to deal with password,i.e what you want to do with this : Now select "Remember this always" . also you have to set one thing more:
go to>option >setting> check "Remember Password for sites " under Password section.
thats all you have to do ,now next time when you login you automatically on redirected to your main page and there is no need of remember the password any more.
hope it help !!
Note that the Scottrade trade log in page has autocomplete=off on the password field, so you can also right-click this field and choose Inspect Element to open the Inspector and change the autocomplete=off to autocomplete=on.
Note that Firefox 29 also has a pref to override autocomplete=off that you can toggle to true on the about:config page.
- signon.overrideAutocomplete = true
In the event that the passwords information is lost, you should record all information in a separate text file somewhere else on your hard drive. You can easily copy and paste if you need to do so. If you are concerned about someone else looking at that file, you can compress it using a password.
