Whenever I go onto Firefox, it will not let me log into some sites, notably email.
I'll fill in user name and password, and when I hit enter it takes me back to the homepage of the website.

Then, when I shut off Firefox, it always asks me to clear private data, which is becmoing increasingly annoying.
Any help, please.  :'(

You probably did something that doesn't let it run scripts?
I dunno...

Instead of hitting enter, press accept, or OK or login or whatever the button says. Probably won't work, but worth a try.

but then it fixed itself, I think.... where do I to to fix that? >_>

That's all I can recommend.

Also, under privacy, turn off "clear data on close" or something like that.

I use "Clear Data on Close".  It has nothing to do with the problem, it just gets rid of your cookies/cache files whenever you close Mozilla Firefox (I always have it ask though just in case there is something I want to keep.)  It helps keep your computer fast =]
