    Guys.. if you use Firefox, do this

    Well... I was bored so looking through Firefox's options I came upon something quite disturbing.

    Go to Tools -> Options -> Security
    Then click "Show Passwords" then "Show Passwords".


    Yup, that's right... anyone with access to your computer can have a look at any passwords for sites that you've told Firefox to remember the password for.


    Thankfully, there's a way to get rid of what, in my opinion, is a huge security flaw: Just tick the "Use master password" button, and then you can put in a password that must be entered to view this list.

      3:Shadowmere> i.d., Wax breaks keyboards playing SubSpace. Best not ask him what anything is.
      3:Wax> Tummy sticks is the situation, commonly referred to as a game, in which two erect men cuddle closely and face-to-face causing their two erect penises, or sticks, to push upwards between their stomachs, or tummys.
      3:Wax> Sticks combine with tummys, hence the name "tummy sticks."
      3:Shadowmere> LOL
      3:i.d.> Oddly, that's close to what I thought it was...

              Download free music, using an internet browser.

              Method 1: Google
              1. Go to www.google.com
              2. Type the following code in the search engine.
              -inurlhtm|html|php) intitle:index of +last modified +parent directory +description +size +(wma|mp3|ogg|m4a|aac) ####
              3. Replace #### with the name of the band, or song.
              4. Click "Search"
              5. Choose a link and look for the song you want to download. (If you can't find it, choose another link)
              6. Right click on the song title, and choose "Save link as"
              7. Give it a nice title and click okay.
              8. Cheers you are done.

              Method 2: Firefox + Download helper. (If you already have firefox go to step 2)
              1. Download and install firefox.
              Firefox
              2. Open Firefox, download and install Download Helper.
              Download Helper
              3. Go to a site that lets you stream music, such as myspace.
              4. When you find the song play it, and while its playing you should see tree colorful circles rotating.
              5. Click the rotating circles and choose the file you want to download. (The files will have weird names).
              6. Choose a name for the song and save it as a .mp3 file
              For example you could name it Ballin.mp3
              7. Click save and the file should start downloading.
              8. Cheers you are successful, this method also works with youtube,and hundreds of other sites.

                  This is old..

                  I am the only one using this computer, but I assumed Firefox kept it separated from different accounts on your computer.

                      Yeah it does, but I occasionally let my housemates use my PC and vice-versa. It's not that I don't trust them with stuff like banking passwords. But I don't really trust what they'd do when drunk if they knew my Facebook password or something.

                          THIS is why there's a warning not to save form information on COMPUTERS THAT OTHER PEOPLE USE. Get it?
