When I first downloaded FF one of the features I liked most was that it asked my if I wanted FF to save my password. One of the sites I saved was facebook. About a week ago FF stopped saving password and even though it's my primary server, will not even ask me any more on any site!

I have also asked FF to go immediately to my personalized yahoo home page but it won't. It will only go to the generic yahoo page and I have to sign in and click on my yahoo every time.

Make sure that you do not run Firefox in permanent Private Browsing mode.
