After the last Mozilla/Windows7 update my username and password appear when I enter the local auction site - is this due to chages in Mozilla or Windows?

A few years ago my user name and password appeared in a popup box when I entered the local auction site and I only had to click on it to log into the site. This was quite useful but it disappeared and I had to manually enter them. I understood at the time this was due to security concerns. After the last Windows7/Mozilla updates this facility has reappeared. Is this due to changes in the Firefox browser or to the Windows update? Is this safe? Thanks, Alan
