You can set parameters from tools/options/ privacy to clear whatever you
want when turning Firefox off. For instance I clear everything but saved
passwords. When you do that you need to set cookie exceptions for
cookies that you need to run certain software. You can also see when a
site is trying to set a cookie and decide weather or not you want to
allow it. Beware of tracking cookies from sites like coremetrics that
try to hitch a ride.
Thats all for now.

Wally,
Originally this message was intended to go out on email only but
apparently I messed up and sent it to rec.boats too. No harm done. You
guys have got me interested in learning about password managers,
although I don't see, right now, what advantage they offer over the way
Firefox manages passwords and user names.
Thanks,
Jim
