anybody know why Firefox isn't saving my passwords? for instance, the little ticky box i can click on my yahoo mail to keep me logged in for two weeks. if FF restarts, i have to enter that info all over again. same goes for b.org. i keep having to enter my info. it's annoying.
Don't kill anyone if you don't have to. We're here to make a deal.

I do believe in killing the messenger, you know why? Because it sends a message. ~ Damon Salvatore

well...i thought the crashing issue was related to the most recent upgrade. so i took it back to 5.0.1, but it's still crashing. it was forgetting passwords in the most recent upgrade too, which is 6.0.2 i think. OS is Windows 7.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.
Under Tools-->Options, on the Security tab, verify that "Remember passwords for sites" is checked. Then look at the exceptions list and see if anything is there, or if it is blank.
Might also be worthwhile to check out the list of saved passwords.

A friend of mine just sent me a video that was shot on a phone but it's sideways, i.e., it should be portrait but it's landscape instead.
Is there an easy way to turn it rightside up?

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
Have a conversation with your phone. [link] If it didn't talk back I would be tempted to call one "Diane" after Agent Cooper's tape recorder.

sumi, what is the file format, and what program are you using to view it?

The file says its a 3gp. And I think it opened up in Windows Media. (I just clicked on it and it ran - just sideways.)
