Firefox Password Problems

I've been trying FF the past few days after using Mozilla. I imported the
saved password info from Mozilla and 80% of them do not work in FF.


In FF sometime IDs and passwords get saved and sometimes not.
I'm use the "remember password" applet.

On the AT&T long distance site (https://www.customerservice.att.com/where)
only the last four digits of my telephone number (User ID) are saved. Only
the last four digits are recorded in the password manager list. The
password is inserted correctly.

On the Medco
(http://www.medco.com/medco/corporate...kmedcoredirect)
site the ID shows as <> in the password manager list instead of the Username
I entered.

I had none of these problems with Mozilla.

BTW, I've cleared all the password info from FF password manager and started
trying to enter new information where the above problems are occurring.

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks....

In Moz, the password file is an 8 digit file that ends in an S, eg:
12345678.s. Copy that and the file key3.db over to your Firefox
profile. Then rename password file to signons.txt.

Your suggestion did not work.

I uninstalled/installed FF and all seems to be well now except for the Medco
sight. User ID still listed as <> in the password manager list.

Thanks for you time/help.
