Firefox asks for password when I go to Amazon

jhaber3

I do not have a password to use Firefox, and of course Amazon.com does not require a password unless I sign into my account. However, whenever I go to Amazon, a popup asks me for a password, saying that the request comes from Firefox. If I dismiss the popup, I can continue undisturbed with Amazon. I do not find this behavior with other Web sites, so I'm skeptical it's an overall Firefox setting or anything to do with my devices. Not that I can think of my mouse and backup drive as caring about security. Any thoughts?

What does the popup look like - screenshot of it?

If you do not use the Primary Password then Firefox may show the dialog to enter some Windows credentials if you visit a page for which you have stored a login in case you have enabled auto fill for logins.
