Can I use Windows authentication with Firefox?

My company has a website that I need to login to on a daily basis. With IE I can set up Windows Authentication to have a "single sign-on" for this website and it automatically logs me in when I open the site. I do not see any options for authentication under the Tools menu. Using Firefox's password memory does not give the same functionality.

You can do it by adding the server host name to a list of trusted host names. Obviously you need to be very careful about not adding untrustworthy servers to the list. See this article for how: Firefox asks for user name and password on internal sites | Troubleshooting | Firefox Help.
