I had removed some site from saved password in option->security->saved password. Now I want to save password for same site again. How can I do it.

Firefox should offer to save the password if you visit the site and enter the name and password in the log in form and submit that form.

You can check the exceptions:

  • Tools > Options > Security: Passwords: Exceptions

I tried it but Firefox 3.6.17 does not offer to save the password again.
