To clarify...(I know you said to ignore, but anything that helps to clarify is a plus)

The passwords are being saved. However, I have to login to google almost every time I open a new instance of Firefox. Since I have a modified google homepage, this gets to be a nuisance.

Can you still reproduce it ?
If yes, it would useful if you did a search for "google" in the cookies manager to check the expiration date of these cookies.
