My home page is Facebook, and its very annoying to have to log in like 50 times a day. It used to say logged in, even on youtube, but since last week Firefox is not working the way it's supposed to.

"Remember Me" for automatic website logins when you return to the website is usually done with a Cookie the website set in Firefox.

Try clearing your Cookies for the affected websites. Tools > Options -> Privacy - Cookies = Show Cookies button Enter the domain in the Search bar at the top and all the Cookies for that URL will appear. Unless you can figure out which Cookie is for "remember me", you'll need to delete them all.

Hold the {Ctrl} key while you click on each Cookie in the small window. When that list is all highlighted, click the Remove Cookie button in the lower left. When you are done click Close.

If that problem persists, you might need to delete the __cookies.sqlite__ file in your Profile folder. http://support.mozilla.com/en-us/kb/Profiles#How_to_find_your_profile You might need to unhide your "Hidden files and folders" thru Folder Options in the Windows Control Panel
