The user certificate works fine, but it's FRICKING INFURIATING that Firefox just keeps on asking for the certificate. The first time I go to a site that requires logging in using a user certificate, it pops up the same dialog 4 times in a row. Then if I switch to another tab and spend a couple of minutes there, restart Firefox or reload the tab that I logged in, it now asks for the certificate all over again!

How can I just god damn make Firefox remember what certificate I want it to use without it always asking for it? No, "Remember this decision" does not do that.

Since nothing was posted to what certificate or where it's resides no one is going to know what is happening and if your security software is clearing forms out that isn't the fault of Firefox doing.

A user authentication certificate that have been imported into Firefox for logging on to an online service. No, not a server certificate. No, no security software is clearing out any forms.

Then you need to contact the site issuing it as to why it's clearing out.

No, the site isn't doing that, either. It is Firefox that is doing it. You are free to Google around and see that there are plenty of people with the same issue and it's not limited to any single, specific service.

And that does what? Firefox doesn't issue that certificate it's the site your using that does that.

No one said anything about issuing a certificate! I am logging in with the certificate! The certificate has already been issued and imported into Firefox, it's not changing nor am I constantly re-issuing a new one.
