I have a bookmark for:
http://kopfj%40worldnet.att.net:<PASSWORD>@members.spamcop.net/
where <PASSWORD> is the actual passsword used to log onto that site.

Every time I run FIrefox anew and select this URL, Firefox bitches about it and
tells me that 'you are about to log into the site "members.spamcop.net" with...'

I KNOW.  THAT'S WHAT I WANT TO DO.  Add an option toe tell Firefox to shut up
and not bother me with what I already know!

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Creat a logon bookmark (of form: http://<USER>:<PW>@<SITE> )
2. reboot and use it to access <SITE> - Firefox will bitch every time.
3.

Actual Results:  
After the first instance, this becomes a nuisance.

Expected Results:  
Asked if this is OK (i.e., what I intended for this site); if so, not ask about
that particular logon again.

Add a check-box on the error-message window to select this option.

I have a 9.09 Kb screen-capture jpg of the actual message window presented, if
that's any use...contact me at kopfj@att.net and I'll forward it as an attachment.
