I clicked to clear recent history and checked every box including Active Logins but when I then went to a website I frequent and clicked in the log in box the browser auto-populated my log in. It is still remembering my log ins. How do I completely clear them from the browser history?

hello FieryFoxxer, if your username/password combination is automatically filled on a login form it is stored in the firefox password manager. you can go into the firefox menu ≡ > options > security in order to view/delete that information.
