Everytime I enter a user ID for a website, there is a list of USER IDs that pop up for other websites as well. How do i delete them and not have them pop up everytime i log onto a website?

I go to firefox settings and go to the password section and nothing is listed there.

That aren't saved logins because logins have a key icon in front and that only leaves saved form data.

Did you try to use the cursor down key to highlight an entry and press Shift+Delete ?

You can use these steps to remove saved items from an autocomplete drop-down list.

  1. click the (empty) input field on the web page to open the drop-down list
  2. highlight an entry in the drop-down list with cursor Down key
    do not click the mouse or press the Enter key
  3. press Shift+Delete (68+) or Delete to delete the highlighted entry

Note that hovering with the mouse doesn't work.
