how do I add a password that I told firefox to forget
how do I add a password that I told firefox to forget. I can't seem to "change my mind" for certain web sites that I have decided to add to passwords.

Some sites like PayPal, Yahoo, Windows Live and bank sites use autocomplete="off" to prevent Firefox from saving and filling the name and the password.
If a site uses autocomplete="off" then look at this article for a bookmarklet to remove that autocomplete attribute and Firefox will offer to store the name and password.

- Open the Options window and go to the Security panel
- In the password section click on the Exceptions button
- Remove the site from that list and Firefox should then offer to save the password when you next enter it
Did as you suggest and the site I wish to use is not listed when I clicked on Exceptions button.

I was dealing with a bank and this was the solution I needed. Thanks so much! I thought I had inadvertently told firefox to forget the password, when in fact it was the bank that did that. Thanks again.
