I used to be auto logged in when I went to DU from bookmarks

but now I need to log in on the DU page. I have Last Pass running and set to auto fill but it is not working. I recently upgraded my Firefox.
Is there a fix?

When you log in, did you click the checkbox that says... Skinner Feb 2013 #1

Double check to make sure FF isn't deleting cookies when it closes. ( n/t ) Make7 Feb 2013 #2

"Remain logged in at this computer?"

That should keep you logged in.

Yes I have the remain on this computer checked and FF does not delete cookies on closing. Once I log on to the site I can come back during the session but if I close my browser I need to log back on. Other sites are also behaving in this manner.
Could FF be having issues with LastPass?

I guess the easy way to test if LastPass is the issue would be to disable it (as long as you know the passwords to some sites) and see if you remain logged on after closing FF and restarting it.

It's not unheard of for FF upgrades to cause issues with add-ons, but they usually get sorted out fairly quickly.
