Password query

Hi,

when I open Firefox with my default page (https://mail.google.com/...) I always get two queries for entering a password. But indeed I do not have saved any password for this site. Thus I also cannot find an entry in the login/password list.

Thus I simply cancel the queries and everything works fine.

So why do I get the nasty queries and how can I remove them?

Thanks

Are you already logged in? There may be a password entry for accounts.google. com

Indeed I'm already logged in. But there is no password entry like accounts.google.com. Google seems to detect the login in combination with the device. So for other (new) devices I would have to comfirm it by second factor authentication. My Firefox password list does not contain any adress containing google or gmail. That's why I'm concerned about the double password queries. It is really nasty.
