All wise and knowing Phil.... HELP!

My anti virus was just renewed a week ago (Norton) and hubby purchased Norton Utilities online at the same time. NOW I have to sign in every time I go to any website. I click on 'remember me' yet they do not! I've checked to see if cookies are enabled and they are. This is frustrating!

Any ideas?

Diane

    Lastpass
    I use Firefox and the extension Lastpass to manage my web ids and passwords. It works pretty well -- logins can be made automatic for any given site, so I don't have to rely on "remember me" working correctly. If I'm not remembered, Lastpass logs me in anyway (though it does take extra time).

    I agree
    Diane, I use FireFox too and it's great at remembering passwords for sites. As far as ANY tech support goes, be careful. Often they will have you messing with things you shouldn't mess with and your computer can be in worse shape afterwards. My experience is often they don't know what they are talking about...

    Let me know if you're still having problems with it Diane

    Firefox
    I had deleted Firefox and gone back to OE a few weeks ago because Firefox was crashing five or more times a day. Several teachers at Jim's school were having the same problem... so I uninstalled it. Maybe I should reinstall because this is so frustrating! I never had the problem before installing Utilities.

    Agree about thse techs! Sometimes I think I know more than they do!

    Yep!
    Me too! I've had Firefox for years! You can even change the colors and themes on it as well, to make it cool-looking :)

    Hugsss!

    Colors?
    I've not noticed that option!

    Firefox is great. Maybe whatever bug there was is fixed.

    Yes...
    They have them as add-ons here:

    https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/browse/type:2

    If you click the pics, and read the reviews, or look to the left, where it says "All" it will show you all the themes they have, check it out, then if you pick one, and download it, you will find them under "Tools" at the top there, and then "Add-ons", then a small box will pop open, and look under the tab "Themes" and it will be there. I actually downloaded the cats one, and it is so cute, I have quite a few to pick from :)

    Hugsss!
