Ive just got a new pc and firefox is my default browser, im having a problem with the master password, when i was on vista it worked no problem, it would prompt me to save the password etc, but now on windows 7 ive activated it but it dosent prompt me to save my password, if i log in to say sax-p for example i check remember me and i still get no prompt and it dosent keep me logged in, its doing my head in, any advice would be great

Don't want to sound patronising but have you tried:
- Tools
- Options
- Security, and in the passwords section you have 'Remember Passwords for Sites'
I don't have Windows 7 installed on my pc and tbh I cant be bothered had Vista since the day it come out never reloaded got about 3 years of stuff on it.
Tried it on my brothers PC he's loaded Windows 7 and it works.
Hope this helps you

I've been running windows 7 with firefox for approx 8 months now i think.
Absolutely no problems.
You probably need to go into the options and either change cookies(what keeps you logged in) or password saving(what fills out username and password fields when you aren't logged in)

Sounds like a profile issue.
Exit Firefox. Open the Windows Start menu by clicking your windows ball at the bottom left of your desktop. In the Search box in the bottom left, type:
firefox.exe -ProfileManager
You then need to delete your profile and any others you do not need but make sure you don't delete the files. When you open firefox again it should create a new profile. Providing you have remember passwords set to yes it should start saving them again.
