How to View Stored Passwords in Firefox (Viewing someone account password on Firefox)

In Firefox you can view someone/friend/own Facebook, Twitter, Yahoo, Gmail Account or any website  password,  you can view it or delete it.
 
Firefox allows you to securely store usernames and passwords for websites in its Password Manager. When you visit one of the websites again, Firefox automatically fills in the username and password to log you in.
 
If you need to find out what your password is for a specific website such as Facebook, Yahoo, Twitter, Gmail etc. for which you saved your logon information, you can easily do so. To view your saved passwords in Firefox, select Options from the Firefox menu.
 
NOTE: You can open the Options dialog box by selecting Options on the main Firefox menu or on the submenu.

If you’re going to use the Firefox Password Manager, we highly recommend that you apply a master password to your stored usernames and passwords. Without a master password, if someone gains access to your account, they can easily open the Password Manager and view your passwords. To add a master password, open the Options dialog box again and select the Use a master password check box.

The Change Master Password dialog box opens. Enter a master password in the Enter new password edit box and again in the Re-enter password edit box. Click OK.

Click OK to close the message telling you that your master password has been successfully changed.

If you want to change your master password in the future, click Change Master Password on the Security screen on the Options dialog box. To close the Options dialog box and save your changes, click OK.

Now, when you click Saved Passwords on the Options dialog box to view your passwords, you must enter your master password first.

Some websites do not allow the saving of usernames and passwords, therefore, the Firefox Password Manager will not work with those sites. Also, some websites provide a option, in the form of a check box, that allows you to stay logged in on that website. This is an independent function of the website and works whether or not you have saved your login information for that website in Firefox.
