Thank you. Please note that everything i've found with search engines points
to mozila help pages which are now completely wrong. In the "normal" firefox
preferences there is a formerly working before update to V62.0 out today, to
let you use a masterpassword for logon information storage, as well as a greyed
out 'ask to save passwords and logins for websites" both under security and
privacy. also on the "general" it won't even let you turn off it's testing of
the operating systems prefered browser, always scanning your configuration
files.
so now it's hidden in firefox's database files, that certainly obfuscation and
openly removing privacy options.
Just to make clear, I'd like to, ideally, remove all chrome and other google
code, which consistenly has huge bugs allowing one's system to be totally
Owned. I haven't used any "flash"fire extensions for a long time because,
along with all other adobe product, they are consistently as insecure window.
