Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Click firefox icon on desktop 2. Master Password dialog box pops up 3. Leave password box blank (no entry) 4. Press "Cancel" Actual Results: Browser opens anyway Expected Results: Same Blocked access to browser
This is expected -- the master password only protects stored passwords. Bug 280662 is the RFE for having the master password encrypt more things in the profile.
