Your Mozilla Support forum username and password is, as far as I know, only useful on this site.

Firefox normally doesn't ask for a username and password at startup. This could be something requested by your home page, or by an add-on that connects to a secured service, such as an email notifier. Do either of those seem relevant? What happens if you cancel the username/password request?

The Password Manager is the only thing about Firefox that will ask for a (Master) Password. But only is you turn on this feature.
