continuao 2 step verification
I use Firefox as my browser. My bank and Gmail both require 2 step verification. I complete this step and check off box on browser not to ask again in future but it doesn't work. My bank thinks it has something with Firefox security settings causing to ignore my request. What should I do with my security settings short of changing browser. I do not have this problem when I sign in using Microsoft browser.
