How do I stop Firefox from automatically filling in the spaces for my username and password on one of my password protected websites?

Firefox is automatically entering my username and password on my Sacramento State University secure password site. I am trying to get that function stopped. I do not want my username and password automatically entered in the spaces provided for log in. I want to manually enter that information myself each time I log in to that particular secure password protected site.

So far...I can not find a way to do that. All I find is a way to change my password. I do not wish to change my password. I just do not want it automatically entered for me.

Remove that password / username from the Saved Passwords window in Options > Security, and say Never if Firefox asks if you want to save it in the future.

You may need to clear the cookies from that website as well.

Thanks guys...I did as you suggested and it worked! Thanks!

However...just want you all to know...a computer illiterate like myself had trouble finding which function on the menu bar to click on to find the options and security settings to "unclick." Eventually...I found the correct window.

Thanks again...your advice worked!
