I currently have 59 different passwords (you’ll learn how I know this in a moment), and that doesn’t include the financial accounts I’m too paranoid to save. It’s clearly the only presently viable solution for account protection, but let’s face it, this solution sucks.
Of course, it’s impossible to remember all of these passwords, and accordingly I make regular use of Firefox’s password caching feature. But did you ever forget a saved password, or want to remove one or all of them from Firefox? You can, using what I’d venture is a little known Firefox feature.
To view all of your saved logins, open Firefox and navigate to Tools -> Options and click on the Privacy tab. Then click on the Passwords tab, and finally click on the “View Saved Passwords” button. A list of all of your saved accounts will appear, but with the passwords not displayed for security reasons. You can click on the “Show Passwords” button to view the passwords. To remove an account you can highlight an account and click the “Remove” button, or remove all accounts by clicking the “Remove All” button.
