In Mozilla preferences click on the twisty to open the "Privacy and Security" category, go to the "Passwords" tab (just above the "Master Password" tab). There are two choices there, remember passwords, and use encryption. You need the first to turn on the feature, you need the second to encrypt your passwords and require the use of the master password. If these are both set and you're not being asked for your password is it possible your master password was reset to blank? -Dan Veditz _______________________________________________ Mozilla-security mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.mozilla.org/listinfo/mozilla-security
