Firefox fails to login automatically to almost every site I am registered with, from Amazon (US, UK, etc) and YouTube to DeviantArt and Abandonia (not to mention Demonoid). Sometimes it even looses said login information even if the same site is revisited on a different tab (without even closing Firefox). It has gotten quite annoying...

  • Websites remembering you and automatically log you in is stored in a cookie.
  • Create an allow cookie exception (Tools > Options > Privacy > Cookies: Exceptions) to keep such a cookie, especially for secure websites and if cookies expire when Firefox is closed.
  • In Private Browsing - Use Firefox without saving history mode all cookies are session cookies that expire if that session is ended, so websites won't remember you.
  • Do not use Delete browsing, search and download history on Firefox to clear the "Cookies" and the "Site Preferences"

Clearing "Site Preferences" clears all cookies, images, pop-up windows, software installation, and password exceptions.
