GMAIL Notifier is not part of Windows. Ask in a GMAIL notifier newsgroup,

or, if it's a Firefox addin, ask in the appropriate forum.

Check Firefox's Preferences/Settings under Security, see if "Remember

Passwords" in checked. You may have to look. The exact location varies

between Firefox versions and which OS they run on, and I don't have

access to XP right now, so I can't check.

Thanks yes that is set to remember passwords.

I am using the same mail notifier on my other p c and every thing seems

to be set the same.

I did do a Google and it seems others are having the same problem but

have no answers to solve it.

guess i will just need to sign in every time i reboot

Strange.

Works on all my Yahoo and GMail accounts. (Firefox 3.5.9 64-bit running

on Fedora 12 Linux 64-bit) In Preferences, check 'Exceptions' and 'Saved

Passwords' and see if anything is there. You may have inadvertently set

some accounts as exceptioned for remembering. Be sure to quit/restart

Firefox after making Preferences changes to load the new settings.



Personally, for security, I never have passwords "remembered" on any of

my systems, Linux or Windows.

Try going to Options -> Security -> Saved Passwords and clearing any entry

for google.com thenrestart firefox and try again.
