I am attempting to turn off remember password on over 800 PC's. I need to do this remotely and in one instance. Is there a script I can right?

hello radwan2507, the preferred method to this would probably be like it's described in http://kb.mozillazine.org/Locking_preferences

you'd have to put 

lockPref("signon.rememberSignons", false);

into the mozilla.cfg file if you want to forcibly disable the saving of passwords. if you just want to set a different default option but still allow users the choice over how this preference should be set, use defaultPref instead of lockPref.
