Some websites don't remember my login details.
Some websites (Unity Answers - http://answers.unity3d.com/index.html, NGUI Support forum - http://www.tasharen.com/forum/index.php?board=1.0) keep forgetting my login details, so I cannot stay logged in, even between visits. This makes some internet use very frustrating, such as searching for a Unity development answer and then not being able to see it until I log into Unity Answers yet again and again.
It's only on a few websites though. Most details are remembered. I don't know how long this has been happening.

Hi !
First of all : would you please disable Kaspersky Protection and see if that makes a difference ?
If not, would you take a good look at the article :
Fix login issues on websites that require username and password
Note that a feature like a website remembering you (log you in automatically) is stored in a cookie.
Is this only happening with a website that you open via an open HTTP connection?
I think that something has changed in Firefox and that it is no longer possible to use this feature for HTTP websites. It should work for a secure connection. This could be related to the way that insecure website are considered as unsafe in current releases. You would also get a warning in the case of an HTTP connection when you type in the login field.
Clearing cookies seems to have worked with NGUI support forum but not Unity Answers. Neither use HTTP.
As this only happens on a few websites, have you tried this :
Click on the 'i' icon (on the left end of the address bar), than click on the little black arrow. Click on 'More Information' => Persmissions Then scroll down to 'Set Cookies' and allow them for that site.
