Use RoboForm with Mozilla or Netscape?
Infopackets Reader Peg M. asks:
" Dear Dennis,
Yesterday, I read your article on RoboForm. I use the Mozilla Firebird browser and was wondering: how can I install RoboForm installed on Firebird instead of Internet Explorer (which is used by default)? "
My Response:
For those of you who are just tuning in: RoboForm is a free web Browser 'plug-in' replacement for Internet Explorer's AutoComplete form feature. Some features of the free version include: Save / auto fill password info from login form, Automatic login to online accounts, Fill long online forms from Identities, and more. For a full list of details, read this article on RoboForm:
I did some digging through the FAQ (frequently asked questions) on the RoboForm web site and found that RoboForm will work with Mozilla 1.4+ and Netscape 7+. Because Mozilla Firebird is a derivation of Mozilla, it may not work -- but you can try.
Here's part of the FAQ from the RoboForm web site:
" Question: The AutoFill (AutoSave) dialog does not come up when I expect it to. Why? Answer: Either you are using a browser in which RoboForm does not work (RoboForm won't work with Netscape 4, Opera, and Compuserve 7), or you are using Netscape 7 or Mozilla and you did not install RoboForm Adapter for these browsers.
