I upgraded ?to3.6 a few days ago and everything seemed OK

Today I tried out the private browsing function and now all the saved passwords are gone.

Is there a way to restore it?

SuSE-brand :openSUSE ? VERSION = 11.1

I killed all firefox processes running and the passwords came back.

Or.... you could have simply stopped the private browsing function.

I had stopped the private browsing, and was back browsing at the previously opened tabs. When I tried to load another bookmark that required a login I noticed the saved passwords were missing.

You need to enter the master password again. Didn't Firefox ask you for it? Perhaps the window was hidden somewhere?
