FYI: Per reply from Roboform Support, Autofill from Identities is not supported by Firefox anymore. Fill forms button still works but that requires an extra step for every entry and takes longer. It appeared to work in IE last night when I was testing it, had to import my bookmarks from Firefox. I am going to try using IE today for all of my entries to see how it works.

Please notice AutoFill from identities has been dropped in Firefox recently, sorry.
As the result, AutoFill Without Asking will not work, either.
It is promised to be redesigned completely that will take time. Please bear with us.
 
Several days ago (week?) I got a pop up from Firefox saying that Roboform was causing security or stability issues and to disable the ad-on. I clicked ok and the robo header disappeared from the top of my Firefox Browser. I went to Add-ons in the Firefox directory and re-enabled the add-on and Robo has worked fine ever since, including 100 sweepstakes entries this morning at another sweep site. While typing this, I went to a third site I use and did a test - Robo works fine there also.

About 9 Mos. ago I moved all my sweeps from SA 'cause it was bogging down and freezing both in IE and Firefox. In IE I'd get a notice from IE that SA wasn't responding. I had to close IE and re-open in order to continue. Firefox would freeze and I had to open the Task Manager and click on end task to solve the problem. It was taking way too much time, so I just moved all my sweeps and I have zero problems with the other sites. I continue to visit SA as I have been a member here for so long and I like the site. I just don't use SA to enter sweeps any more.

If Robo is disabled, click on the 3 horizontal bars at the top right of your Browser. Click on add-ons (the jigsaw puzzle piece). Click on "enable" far right after Roboform on the next page. I never went to The Password Manager for Robo, as enabling Robo solved the problem for me. Can you return to the older version of Password Manager?

I understand that Robo now works with the Opera Browser. You'd need to uninstall Robo and then re-install Robo after down loading Opera. Here's a tutorial on getting Robo to work with different Browsers - - Why RoboForm Toolbar Doesn't Appear? Resolved.
