Using a PC with XP.

I intalled Firefox 4.01 having first removed Firefox 3.

I used an add-on the transfer passwords backed up from 3 to 4.

Most passwords were copied over but some were not.

My problem is that although I have the option "Remember passwords for sites" ticked. This does not happen.

When I enter username and password for a new site, Firefox does not offer to store the password and the password in not recorded.

I do have the add-on Better Privacy 1.50 installed. I tried disabling this but it made not difference.

If all else fails, is there a way of adding username/password manually?
