Firefox doesn't remember Yahoo password!?

How do I manually enter passwords to be remembered in Firefox? When I visit Yahoo, I don't get the popup to remember password.

It does work for other sites, though.

Update:

Thanks. I do a have a free gadget - Bizform Bar - that remembers ALL passwords, even Yahoo, but it only works with IE.

I detest having to do passwords and forms.

Is there anyone who solved this in Firefox?

    I've been using firefox and yahoo for quite some time. I used to be able to have firefox remember, but within the last several months, yahoo has tightened security and typing the password manually is necessary.

    I E doesn't remember it either or offer to do so. Probably because the sign in screen comes directly from yahoo and they do not think that is a good idea.

    When I enter my password and clicked "Sign In", and I enable same my passwords, no pop-up. I think Yahoo! disable this feature.

    click tools and then clear private data! uncheck all the options except: saved passwords and authenticating sessions! check those two!
