Instead of entering anything, try clicking twice on the ID field.

This is caused by login pages that block the saving of passwords.  To
defeat such blocks, see
<http://cybernetnews.com/firefox-remember-passwords/>.  However, more
and more Web sites have logins via scripts (e.g., JavaScript), for which
nothing enables saving passwords.  This is addressed in bug #355063 at
<https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=355063>.

On occasion, I might filter and ignore all newsgroup messages

because of spam from that source.
