Saving Passwords: I was prompted to save, but said NO to one password a few times, so how do I reverse this so it will save my password please?
I've tried clearing the password from the saved list, so it will prompt me to save it again. BUT, now it NEVER remembers this password for this site for me. How can I reverse this please?

Thank you for your suggestion. My exceptions list is already empty. Nothing to delete. Any other ideas please?
