I just installed Firefox 5.1 in English (I used to have Firefox in German. The new Firefox won't store my user names and passwords any more.
I have the correct password settings (made on the Security tab) but Firefox only knows the user names and passwords that I stored while using the German version. Anything I've entered since installing the English version does not get stored. Do you know why this is?
Many thanks
