Firefox password issue....


I googled this but still cannot solve this problem. In firefox I had my password saved for a certain website and it was working fine. However I changed my passsword recently and ever since I did that I cannot make firefox prompt me to save the new password. So now I have to manually type it in every single time I login a that website (very annoying).

Anybody happen to know how I can force firefox to prompt me again so I can make it save the new password? I must be mentally challenged because I can't figure it out...

Thanks.

I no longer use the password saver in FF, but previously you'd go into the stored passwords and simply delete that one and it should ask next time.
Tools -> Options -> Security tab -> Saved Passwords.

Victor Lugo,

Thanks, but I already beat you to that before I read your reply. I am officially an idiot. I did not realize I had it in the exceptions list... I removed it yesterday and now it works fine

Now let's all forget this ever happened!
