Hi, I am getting a new dialogue window when I use Firefox to access my yahoo email account. I never had the box ask for my login and password. It used to only give me the option to click on the words "save password." Is this a new dialogue box from Mozilla that displays your login information and password? Thanks

Hi

This is a Firefox feature called Firefox Password Manager. It securely stores your usernames and passwords for sites that you visit to make it easier to re input that information at a later date.

You can read more about this feature in this article.

I hope that this helps, but if you have any further queries, please come back here and we will do our best to answer them.
