K-Meleon Web Browser Forum
Does anyone know why the browser will not "remember" Yahoo Mail's passwords? I have a similar problem with Opera - no, a worse problem - as that browser will not even acess Yahoo Mail.
It's because yahoo uses a special script or code to prevent browsers from remembering your password, part of their overportective security crap. (A site should never force you to sign in again, if someone's too stupid to log out when they know they're on a public computer, that's their problem. The rest of us shouldn't have toi suffer for their stupidity.) To get around it, you need to use a bookmarklet. Go here: http://www.squarefree.com/bookmarklets/forms.html#remember_password and add the bookmarklet to your bookmarks. Now go to yahoo, log out, go to the log in page, go to the bookmarklet (at this point it should say something like "do not remember has been removed from X forms"), now log in & it should prompt you to save the password. You only need to do this once, from then on the browser will automatically fill in the password.

K-Meleon in Spanish
I Use Roboform to access my yahoo- mail account with my K-meleon browser- part of the Roboform package is a passwordgenerator. An Roboform 4 SeaMonkey Adapter adapted for K-Meleon 1.1 till1.1.3 is at the K-Meleon extensions page. Versions for other browsers exist. The basic Roboform package is at roboform.com. Their supported browser list needs to be updated, since it does not include k-meleon. IMHO Roboform should be able to work with any Gecko browser.

Does the above described by Drahken still work? I am unable to get it to do so.
I think I am doing as it says on https://www.squarefree.com/bookmarklets/forms.html#remember_password
Help would be most usfuleful. Thanks
