In Firefox, even if you have the option “Security Remember passwords for sites” checked in Tools > Options,the browser will still display a notification bar at the top that asks “Do you want Firefox to remember the password for “Username” on website.com?” with three buttons “Remember”, “Never for This Site” and “Not Now”.

There is a easy way to remove this pop-up tool bar. Just do the following:

1. Close Firefox
2. Edit nsLoginManagerPrompter.js with notepad which is normally located in C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\components\
3. Replace everything comng in between

 _showSaveLoginNotification : function (aNotifyBox, aLogin) { 

 and

   /*
    
* _removeSaveLoginNotification
     *
     */
    _removeSaveLoginNotification : function (aNotifyBox) {

with

var pwmgr = this._pwmgr;
pwmgr.addLogin(aLogin);

4. Save the file.

Now whenever you login to any website, Firefox will auto save the site, username and password to the login manager WITHOUT showing the notification bar. You can access the saved password area by going to Tools > Options > Security and click the Saved Passwords button. There is one possible bug which is even when a user entered the wrong username or password, it will still be saved.

Now enjoy firefox with automatic password saving without showing notification.
