Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Go to www.hotmail.com 2. Enter username and password 3. Select "remember me on this computer" and "remember my password" boxes 4. Press enter to login 5. Logout. 6. Shutdown computer 7. Start up computer 8. Open firefox 9. Go to www.hotmail.com Actual Results: 10. Username and password are not populated Expected Results: 10. Username and password should be populated Show my username and password as it does in Windows.
Tell Microsoft. The page specifically tells Firefox not to remember the password via autocomplete="off" in the page source.

Strange thing is that Firefox on Windows is OK (username and password is remembered).
There are check boxes remember me/password, those use cookies not Firefox's password manager.
