...man, do I hate the thought of that working - and I know it
does...especially since we're talking about a business here.
Scary...
Why? To change the master password to nothing, you need to know the old
master password. You can't just cancel it like that. And business or
not, if someone doesn't want to use a master password, that's the only
way to do it.
Either you use it or you don't. You can't have it both ways.

I use a master password all the time in all the Browsers I have that use
such.
Although I am the only person in my household that even knows how to
turn a computer on. On occasion (rare) I travel. and also I live in a
rather run down neighborhood and a community that is losing jobs left
and right. If someone breaks into my Home and steals my computers(s) I
don't want to make it easy to get in and steal my information. Anyone
that doesn't use a Master Password is playing with fire.
I don't have to worry about other people in my household, but I DO worry
about hackers, and about losing my laptop someplace - even though I use
a Mac, I'm not convinced about any sort of "immunity" because of it.
I always use a Master, and it's been one of my secondary - if not
primary - reasons for using first Netscape and now SeaMonkey. Strong
passwords are employed where they are for a reason...and having all your
passwords in such a convenient location and NOT using a strong Master is
just begging for trouble.
