How do I clear the cache from my Firefox Browser?
I've gone to settings on Firefox and cleared the cache under private data. I still can't my Ipsy account password. Somebody from Ipsy said to clear my cache bc it won't take the numbers and letters they are sending me. How can I tell if it's cleared? Maybe it's something else.

Can't what? Are you looking for the Password Manager?
Type about:preferences#security<enter> in the address bar. Look under Logins,
Note: For Firefox 56+ its; about:preferences#privacy Look under Forms & Passwords +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Turn on Remember Logins. To check the passwords you have listed, press Saved Logins.
Press the Exceptions button and see what's inside.
Is that from your ISP or what is that?
