I need to speak to a Firefox representative about a major security flaw in this web browser, that I've been happily using for the past 10 years, up until now...
I would like a rep to phone me please. If you write to say that you will phone me, then I'll email my phone number to you. My MAJOR CONCERN, which I just discovered, is that anyone can sit down at my computer and if Firefox is open as my browser, which it IS ALWAYS open 100% of the time, they can go into Tools, Options, Security, Saved Logins and then reveal EVERY SINGLE SAVED PASSWORD that I use!!!! I just discovered this defect now, and I'm appalled! What kind of abysmal security is THAT???!!???
Every other programme, e-mail programme, Facebook, etc, has a way higher "bar" than that! What the devil is wrong with your programmers that they would leave that information so vulnerable???
Please reply to this, I am really mad about this issue..... I can't believe I'm going to have to change browsers now.

I can see someone else may already be answering this but I will add a brief comment.
There is a master password option available you should use that.
You may note Google Chrome, an alternative bowser does not even have a master password. I think they reason you should just lockdown the computer more effectively. Outside the scope of this forum but consider having Operating System "Windows" accounts for named users, that lock when unattended and require a password to unlock. Additionally consider locking from the Computer BIOS.

No one else has added to this yet so I better explain that we do not provide telephone or live chat support.
I hope my last answer helped you.

When you leave the computer, lock the keyboard. Only someone with a password will be able to access it.
Edited: I misunderstood the question.
