I'm not, I'm trying to be sarcastic
I'm just taking what is said by some posters on the thread (and from the Pidgin FAQ) and applying it to the fact that Firefox does save passwords locally. With Firefox it actually does save the passwords locally and encrypts them and it recommends the user to use a master password to ensure at least the passwords are not easily grabbed between sessions.
