How do you make Firefox remember a username?
I am constantly signing in and out of my college website and it is rather annoying to always have to type in my user id. It used to be saved, but then I updated Firefox and it won’t save.
If anyone could explain to make Firefox remember that would be great. Thanks.

How can I get Firefox to save a webpage from the local files, rather than downloading it from the Internet?
There’s an interesting webpage that has just been deleted, but thanks to the miracle of hibernation, it’s still open in Firefox. The problem is, when I save it, it seems to attempt to retrieve the page from its source on the internet, which no longer exists. Is there any way I can configure Firefox to save the locally-held files instead?
Michelle answers:
It fair to say that the site is already saved in the Firefox cache, its just a case of finding it.
Type about:cache into your address bar, this brings up a cache ‘browser’ it gives details of where Firefox saves its cache.

How do you make firefox use your existing installation of Flash?
Flash is already installed on my work computer, however firefox is not communicating with it for some odd reason. I can not reinstall flash because like i said this is my works computer, therefore i need admin rights to install flash. So how can i make Firefox work with the flash thats already been installed by admin?
thanks!
Michelle answers:
You cannot do anything, you have to ask your admin to do it, likely it’s the server side problem, not your computer, you can’t install without admin right.
Btw this is a nice plugin to try out for firefox, ask him to install this

How do I prevent Firefox from opening a site that has a virus?
Every few minutes Firefox tries to open a site. Because I just got a Trojan off my computer. So the link to the virus does not work anymore but Firefox keeps trying to open it. It says it cannot display this webpage. So how do I stop this?
Michelle answers:
Sounds like your computer is still infected with a virus which insist on loading up that web page. I would suggest trying a different type of anti-virus tool to take care of the problem.
