Firefox wants an administrator to sign on every time I open up a new Firefox window.

How can I change the setting on this so that I don't have to sign in every time?

Check that you do not run Firefox as Administrator.

Right-click the Firefox desktop shortcut and choose "Properties".

In the Compatibility tab, make sure that Privilege Level: "Run this program as Administrator" is not selected.

You also need to check the Properties of the firefox.exe program in the Firefox program directory.
