All of a sudden websites are not saving my logon information. For example, weather.com will not save my city even tho I tell it to over and over again.
Yahoo and Pogo used to save my user name and password so that I didn't have to type them in each time, now they do not. I am using Windows XP.

Next, I notice your post says you are running version 3.0.19. This is an insecure version of Firefox that was last updated about 15 months ago. For your security, you should upgrade to either Firefox 3.6.18 or Firefox 5.
Firefox 3.6.18: http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/all-older
Firefox 5: http://www.mozilla.com/firefox
(If your Help > About Firefox shows a version other than 3.0.19, then you might have an override in your settings.)
Thank you so much. I updated my version of Firefox, and guess what, the problem is resolved.
