I access internet through my company`s proxy. It keeps prompting for the proxy authentication even though I have set "remember password" option. I dont get this problem in other browsers nor do my peers using firefox get this problem. I found a solution in some forum, to set "network.negotiate-auth.allow-proxies" -> false. But it still dint work. Note:: Sry Please dont suggest to re-install, I cannot reinstall. Dont we admin rites.
