That would defeat the point of a master [b241548b715]password[/b241548b715].

This of course coming from a contributor.

See Help for information on changing it

That's about as good as you'll get out of me.

yes but what if you never put one in... and you were the only one in your family who used firefox??

this is my case. I'm the only one who uses firefox (everyone else uses Netscape 7.2) and I NEVER set a master password.. i dont like master passwords -(

so yea i can't even save passwords which sucks. and there has to be SOMETHIGN that will reset it.
