Hi,

I've just started using FF. Initially it asked me whether I wanted it to retain passwords and I said no, but it does retain usernames, even my bankcard number. How can I stop this?

Also, how do I delete cookies and temp internet files etc?

Thank you

    but to turn just 1 into a link(which is blue) you highlight the 1 word and you click the icon gaming guy posted then paste the website link into the box and click ok and hey presto a link is created

    ps make sure you copy the website link before you click the icon posted by gaming guy
