Firefox does not remember the account ID for one of my banks altho the site has a check box for this - explorer does save it.
Firefox does remember account IDs and sometimes passwords for other bank accounts. It is just a problem with one. I don't want to give you the bank's name unless you really need it. Is there anything I can change in the privacy, security or other options to fix this? When I go to this site Firefox doesn't put up the key box so presumably doesn't recognize that it is something it might remember.

Do you mean names and passwords in the Password Manager or do you mean that you are no longer logged on to (remembered by) websites after closing and restarting Firefox?
There is a difference between remembering the name and password in the Password Manager and a "remember me" check box on a web page.
The latter usually involves the creation of a special "remember me" cookie that is stored on your computer and that is send to the server.
If that "remember me" cookie is removed or gets corrupted or is not send to the server then the server won't remember you and you need to sign in once again.
Websites may be using autocomplete=off to prevent Firefox from saving the name and password.
You can remove autocomplete=off with a bookmarklet to make Firefox save the name and password.
