wife and i use same computer which is being treated as "public" forcing us to sign on repeatedl..this was not rue before a recent update! help?y
after a recent update - for security? - my wife and i have been forced to sign in on our regularly used pages/sites whereas before we were able to check the "keep me signed in" box and go back and forth without the tedious procedure of having to identify ourselves as though we were using a public computer...how can we get out of this without changing to another browser? we like firefox...

Are you both using the same user account or do you have different user accounts?
