Make Firefox auto-login and remember Steam Store & Community passwords

Closed

So I'm not trying to just promote my blog, but I've already typed up the steps there for myself, and some other guy from the official Steam forums. I thought some of you guys here might want the instructions as well.

Basically I got sick and tired of having to hit "login" and type my whole username/password into the box just to log and and see what my friends are buying/playing etc.., so here's my fix!

Lastpass does the same thing.

I hate lastpass, it's terrible... not to mention their user data was recently compromised.

Thanks for the suggestion, truly. I just can't give them my information after the compromised data :(

Not really - you can't do much with that "data" unless you know the passwords for every single account. Considering you have a strong password (8+ chars, as you should with anything that involves cryptography), you are just fine.

This is what I'm talking about though. I used their service in the past, but I just can't bring myself to do it after this happened. I never found a super-good use for it either, Firefox remembers my passwords just fine, and I use KeePass as an ecrypted PW DB.

I always assumed it always logs you in automatically, I never have to re-login on my Firefox.

Edit: Oooooh, the Steam store. I thought you were talking about this site.

Yeah sorry, every now and then this site logs me out but that isn't a big deal to just click the "sign in thru steam" button :P.
