Password Security


Hove you ever been to

  • Tools [menu] -> Internet Options [menu] -> Security [tab] -> Saved Passwords [button] -> Show Passowrds [button] in Firefox on Windows?
 OR
  • Edit [menu] -> Preferences [menu] -> Security [tab] -> Saved Passwords [button] -> Show Passowrds [button] in Firefox on Linux?

If not do it today and see what happens!

Here are screenshots for you to figure out what I am talking about.

After you click Security Tab



After you click Saved Passwords

After you click Show Passwords. Your list may be different from mine:)

Protecting the passwords list

You may protect the list by setting a master password so that you enter the master password in order to get to the list. In the following interface, you just click "Use a master password" check box. Then you will be prompted to enter the master password. That is it.
