Why must I type my full user name and password every time for Ebay access?
Using Windows 10, Adobe Flash 25 NPAPI v 25.0.0.148, Firefox 52.0.2 & 52.1.0, (Do I need both?), Mozilla Maintenance Service 25.1.0.6316, Shockwave Flash 25.0 r0 plugin, Silverlight 5.1.50906.0 plugin.
I am unable to save my user name and password for Ebay's website. No problems saving for other sites.

Password/logon data are stored in special cookies that the website stores on your computer.
Profile data can be removed or not recorded several ways;
- 1) Running Firefox in Private Mode (nothing is recorded)
- 2) Privacy settings; (In the address bar, type about:preferences#privacy<enter>)
- 3) Many disk cleaners and anti-virus type programs can remove data from browsers. Open their settings and have them leave the browsers alone.
- 4) Mal-ware.

You can use these steps to make a website recognize and remember you:
- You can create a cookie "Allow" exception to keep specific cookies, especially in case of secure websites and when cookies expire when Firefox is closed.
- Options/Preferences -> Privacy -> "Use custom settings for history" -> Cookies: Exceptions
Let the cookies expire when Firefox is closed to make them session cookies instead of using "Clear history when Firefox closes" to clear the cookies. .
- Firefox/Options/Preferences -> Privacy -> "Use custom settings for history" -> Cookies: Keep until: "I close Firefox"
You can create a cookie "Allow" exception to keep specific cookies.
- clearing "Site Preferences" clears exceptions for cookies, images, pop-up windows, and software installation and exception for password and other website specific data
- clearing cookies will remove all selected cookies including cookies with an "Allow" exception you may want to keep
