This privacy flaw has caused my fiancé and I to break-up after having dated for
5 years.

Basically, we share one computer but under separate Windows XP user accounts.
We both use Mozilla Firefox -- well, he used to use it more than I do but now
we don't really use it.  The privacy flaw is this: when he went to log-in under
his dating sites (jdate.com, swinglifestyle.com, adultfriendfinder.com, etc.),
Mozilla promptly asks whether or not he'd like Firefox to save the passwords
for him.  He chose never, obviously.  However, when he logged off his user
account, and I logged onto my Windows XP account X amount of days later, I
decided to use Firefox because hey -- it loaded everything much more
efficiently, was better to work on with website designs and is a lot more
stable than IE7beta2.

Firefox prompted whether or not I'd like it to save my password for logging
into my website.  I chose never and changed my mind.  I went into the Password
Manager to change the saved password option from Never to Always and that's
when I saw all these other sites that had been selected as "Never Save
Password."  Of course, those were sites I had never visited or could ever dream
of visiting.

Then I realized who, how and what...  and sh*t hit the fan.  Your browser does
not efficiently respect the privacy of different users for one system.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create 2 unique user accounts (for steps sake, let's call the two accounts
Joe and Mary) in Windows XP Home.
2. Logout and sign-in under Joe.
3. Open Firefox and go to an e-mail site or to jdate.com or wherever.
4. Attempt to log-in to the site so that Firefox will ask whether or not you
want your password saved.
5. Choose not to save the password.
6. After successfully logging in and having selected the "never save password"
option, logout.
7. Log-in as Mary and open Firefox.
8. Browse, browse, browse... but you don't really have to.  Just go to "View
Saved Passwords," click on the tab that will show you sites to never save
passwords for, and you'll see whatever painful site Joe denied to save a
password for.
9. Break-up with fiancé.

Firefox should be respecting every single area of privacy per user on one
system.  It's not doing that...  I'm going to submit this as Major because not
everyone shares one computer, but it should really be considered Critical.

Yeah, that's always embarrassing.  Like your wife finding your collection of Japanese women eating each other out.

So I'm told.

Might not want to let your SO run the adaware clean ups either; stuff tends to turn up in the temp folders even for accounts they didn't have any idea existed and sometimes with pretty incriminating file names.

I'm more amazed that the woman posting that seemed more upset at the fact that FF didn't keep user accounts separate than the fact her SO was looking at whatever sites were inappropriate.  So she's not mad that a glitch/feature/whateveritwas let her find out the SO wasn't exactly being faithful/honest with her? 

Solution is to each have your own computer, then he can browse his hentai tentacle rape porn in peace, and she can browse her erotic fanfic poetry sites in peace, and never the discussion happen about lack of honesty in a relationship.

Yaoi is all the rage.  And yaoi fanfic.

Dare I even ask what yaoi is?  Probably not, nor do I think google would be my friend here.

I learned it isnt after I wikipedia'd lemonparty.

Wow, maybe it's just me because I'm not in the adult world or whatever...

...But I've been with my girlfriend for over three years now, and I couldn't imagine considering myself "serious" with anyone (much less engaged/married) where we didn't know every single last detail of each other's private info/lives, particularly sexually. I'm all for privacy between couples, but that's a privacy based on trust and fully knowing one another, not a privacy based on hiding things.

A good relationship is one where your partner already knows everything about you they might be disgusted/horrified/amused/tempted to ridicule/angered/upset/enraged by, and they don't particularly care.

To make a relationship work for 3 years at my age (High school and then in college), with a little over 1 of it thus far being long distance, takes an exceptionally strong bond - and I've long believed that the key to such a bond is communication. 

No, it doesn't.  I did the same thing.  And then we broke up.

Making a relationship in college only takes two people who are away from their familial bonds for the first time clinging to each other desperately for support against the horrid loneliness of the world.

Also, Sexxor.

Not bashing you - But you have a lot to learn.

See my previous statement (maybe it was here, maybe it was someone else, but it was definitely on a different thread) about how it helps when your SO is your harshest critic.

Man, you totally went for your mom, didn't you ?  Does she spit on the corner of a hanky and wipe round your mouth ?

Seriously, this is a strange discussion but here's the deal :  Come back to me after 10 years and we'll chat about women, you and I.  Hell, by that time, you can even join me prowling the streets of Glasgow at 3am looking for women to cut.

LOL, no worries. I fully accept that at 20, I've not got a lot figured out yet. Maybe there's a cultural difference in slang here, but are you proposing something GTA-ish? ;)

....

I just assumed he was referring to his Jack the Ripper alter ego.

I'm convinced that no women have ever had sex with any of you on purpose.

With Mary Jane ?

Also, if we're booking up fiictional comic characters, I'm bagsying Scarlett and The Baroness pls.

At the same time, I hope.

That, and maybe it's just a generational thing, but I have a hard time believing there are many girls would be worked up in this day and age that their partner has a porn collection (The grievance of the original bug report, of course, is 100% valid).

There's always the question of whether to bring up the merits of bukkake (Since someone on this thread had never heard of yaoi, I feel I should caveat that by saying 'wikipedia it, don't google image search it') on the second date or the third - but a girl who can hold her own in such a conversation is definitely a keeper.

This is the beginning of a sort of apotheosis, where Mediocrity sheds this pathetic mortal form and ascends to his true position as the new SirBruce.

Cringe-inducing and vomitous do not mean the same as interesting.

Don't make me bust out the Parappa the Rappa Cosplay Fellatio story again.
