Hmmmm .... this is just dumb, ofcourse Firefox ( or any other programs ) must save somewhere it's preferences. This is what this is, it's not a privacy issue.
Somehow, I think there a much deeper reason for the breakup.
As someone posted there, the solution is clear: Never share your computer with your girlfriend. ;^)
Honey, take me back!
She should be thanking Firefox for alerting her to the possibility of being married to a jerk...........
The privacy flaw is this: when he went to log-in under his dating sites (jdate.com, swinglifestyle.com, adultfriendfinder.com, etc.),
lol!
Hey it could have been worse, your fiance' could have been visiting sites like "hotguys.com", "hotgayandproud.com", etc. and then you would have even more to worry about, depending upon the intimacy of your previous relationship. ;)
Thanks to Firefox this couple won't be visiting Dear Abby, a Psychologist/Psychiatrist, or divorce (defense?) attorneys. I think I'll stick with Firefox.
Engaged for five years? Just how long were you going to "try it"?
Just as well you broke up. Neither one of you is very good at decision making.
You can simply delete them.
Don't write it down if you don't want it published. Don't throw rocks when you live in a glass house. A man and his perversions are soon outed. Those rules have applied since cave drawings. Seems like good solid advice.
A little more light under the rocks please. Then we can really evaluate the quality of those news sources.
Fixed it.
Your biggest mistake occurred when you wrote the above sentence. Anyone who paid the least bit of attention in grade school would know that the correct grammatical form is "...caused my fiancé and me to break up."
The verb here is "caused" and "my fiancé and me" are objects of the verb. The correct form for I/me when used as the object of a verb is obviously "me."
You would automatically say, "Caused me to break up...." Just because there are now two objects (or, if you prefer, a compound object), there is no reason to switch from the object form ("me") to the subject form ("I.")
I guess she owes Firefox a letter of thanks...
Otherwise, I would consider this to be a privacy bug.
One user should not have access to the preferences of another.
This could also be facilitated by an XP permissions failure.
I know that on Linux systems, the situation described is not possible because you don't have read access to the /home/$user/.mozilla directory.
Perhaps a change in operating systems is in order. ;-)
Good thing you got rid of that bum...
What makes you think the next one will be any better...
You will probably just keep going through them till you get to the point..where you will settle...but in your mind...you will make yourself believe that the 'golden one' is 'perfect for you...
Good luck...but remember when fishing in cess ponds...don't be too surprised when you end up with a few turds on your hook...
Doo-oh
Total BS.
I just tested it by logging off of my XP account and logging in to my wife's XP account, opening Firefox and checking the Password Manager.
The first two sites listed in my list are for juno.com and computing.net...along with many, many more. This includes the "Saved" and "Never saved" tabs.
Those two sites do not appear anywhere in Password Manager under my wife's XP/Firefox account. In fact, there are only 4 sites listed in hers as she is an infrequent browser.
The only explanation is that they were using the same Firefox account somehow.
