    Hello guys

    I have this problem right now. I'm using Mozilla 0.92. A lil while ago, I changed my password, signed out (after being signed in for months/cookies), and sign in again, accidentally clearing the 'remember me' option. Then I signed out again, then signed in with 'remember me' checked. My problem now is everytime I open my browser (a new one after start up), I am not logged in by default (I have to sign in everytime). Can someone help me?

    Thanks

    EDIT: It doesn't happen when I re open my browser, but it still happens if I restart my PC...

    On a different tangent here: does anyone know where Firefox stashes temp files? I've noticed that upon initial installation, it smokes. Then.. as time goes on.. it gets soo muuch slower... Sadly, it's almost slower than IE now.
    Any ideas?

    I found that a Security update for XP which involved the way that JPEG are processed on the OS caused a significant slowdown, it seems that since Firefox "hooks" to Microsofts DLL files to produce the images that it's inherited a slowdown because it's not a TRUE Microsoft product (At leasts thats my theory to it, not exactly 100% accurate without proof).

    You can, Resize the cache using Options and even clean it. You'll find that it will slow down when the cache is filled, however when it's cleaned it will speed up a bit.

    What I'm testing currently is a 1000Kb cache (1Mb), seems that it zips along real quick but of course means that it will have to "RELOAD" data more often, as apposed to using your "BACK" button through it's stored cache.

    So you have to decided, more Bandwidth Usage Vs Higher Load Speed.
