I logged off my machine without closing firefox. Then shutdown the computer. I restarted the computer and opened firefox. The extension asked me if I wanted to recover lost pages, I said yes. Hey presto, my gmail account opens and logs in without asking me to authenticate. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Start -> Shutdown without closing firefox 2. Reboot 3. Open firefox Actual Results: GMail logs in. I have not tried this with over webmail accounts Expected Results: Gmail logs in without asking for password.

Seems to be a dupe of Bug# 358042

works for me with Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.2; en-US; rv:1.9a8pre) Gecko/2007082705 Minefield/3.0a8pre ID:2007082705 - Hugh, is this still a problem with a recent Firefox Release like Firefox 2.0.0.6 ?
