I'm using Firefox 1.5.0.10. For most sites, Firefox remembers passwords if I told it to do so. My Earthlink WebMail account is one of the sites for which I had used that feature and it consistently worked right until I changed passwords. Now, Firefox will not remember that username and password. I went into Tools, Options, Privacy, View Saved Passwords, found the Earthlink WebMail account and removed it. I then opened Firefox, went to the URL for WebMail, and entered the username and password. Firefox asked me whether I want it to remember the password. I clicked Remember. But, the boxes for username and password continue to be blank when I go to the logon page.
Any suggestions from you Firefox users?

How odd.
I've never used the password feature of Firefox so I'm not too sure on that.
When you save the password again, does it show up in the saved passwords or not?

I too use 1.5.0.10, but I don't use the password feature.
If no one here has the answer for you soon, don't forget the highly active forums at http://forums.mozillazine.org

This doesn't mean much, but - I just enabled it.
Logged off this site.
Logged back on, got the pop-up and told Firefox to remember the password for this site.
Logged off again.
Clicked to log in again, and Firefox popped username and password right in there. Worked fine.
Maybe Earthlink's site is doing something funny? trying to protect you, maybe? .... just guessing....

Try logging on with javascript temporarily disabled, soybean.
