Hello :)
I am using Firefox 9.0.1, “nsLoginManager.js” is not in the mentioned directory, you may find it here:1) go to “C:Program FilesMozilla Firefox”2) unzip the file “omni.jar” (I used winrar to do this), and I think it is recommended to extract it to “omni” as folder so you don’t replace any of your files.3) go to “C:Program FilesMozilla Firefoxomnicomponents” then look at “nsLoginManager.js”.4) compress the content of “omni” folder as a jar file5) rename it to “omni.jar”6) replace the old “omni.jar” with the new one.done :)

Can u pls tell me nw exactly from which line to which line i have to delete from the followingif (notifyBox) this._showSaveLoginNotification(notifyBox, aLogin); else this._showSaveLoginDialog(aLogin); }, /* * _showLoginNotification * * Displays a notification bar. * */ _showLoginNotification : function (aNotifyBox, aName, aText, aButtons) { var oldBar = aNotifyBox.getNotificationWithValue(aName); const priority = aNotifyBox.PRIORITY_INFO_MEDIUM; this.log(“Adding new ” + aName + ” notification bar”); var newBar = aNotifyBox.appendNotification( aText, aName, “chrome://mozapps/skin/passwordmgr/key.png”, priority, aButtons); // The page we’re going to hasn’t loaded yet, so we want to persist // across the first location change. newBar.persistence++; // Sites like Gmail perform a funky redirect dance before you end up // at the post-authentication page. I don’t see a good way to // heuristically determine when to ignore such location changes, so // we’ll try ignoring location changes based on a time interval. newBar.timeout = Date.now() + 20000; // 20 seconds if (oldBar) { this.log(“(…and removing old ” + aName + ” notification bar)”); aNotifyBox.removeNotification(oldBar); } }, /* * _showSaveLoginNotification * * Displays a notification bar (rather than a popup), to allow the user to * save the specified login. This allows the user to see the results of * their login, and only save a login which they know worked. * */ _showSaveLoginNotification : function (aNotifyBox, aLogin) {
