A detail like a website remembering you (log you in automatically) is stored in a cookie. Remove cookies from a website to make the website forget about you.

"Remove the Cookies" from websites that cause problems.

  • Firefox/Tools > Options > Privacy > "Use custom settings for history" > Cookies: "Show Cookies"

Note the Gmail has a checkbox to remember you.

You can use these steps to make a website recognize and remember you:

  • You can create a cookie 'allow' exception to keep specific cookies, especially in case of secure websites and when cookies expire when Firefox is closed.
  • Tools > Options > Privacy > "Use custom settings for history" > Cookies: Exceptions
