Dear LJ Genie...

I have two Firefox questions.
1) I have it set up so that I can only install programs on the admin account of my computer. For some reason, even when I have just updated Firefox there and I am getting the screen saying, "Thanks! You've updated to the latest version of Firefox," I get an error while I am opening the program saying that it's trying to update but can't. Does anyone have any idea of how to switch this off, at least on my regular user account? Is there a preference somewhere I don't know about?
2) How do you change saved passwords? Firefox will save my passwords, but I do change my passwords, so I've been having to type them in again the past few months, over the wrong ones. How can I fix this?
Thank you, Oracle!

Changing saved passwords
Date: 2007-12-09 05:41 pm (UTC)Open the 'preferences' window and select the 'security' tab. Click the 'show passwords' button. For the passwords you want to change, select them, remove them, then go to the site in question and log in with the changed password. Firefox will ask if you want to save the password, and voila!
