+In recent FF versions the nsLoginManager.js file is located in the "omni.jar" file (or "omni.ja" since FF 10).
+You'd have to open omni.jar with an unarchiver tool and look for your file in the "components" folder.
+After the modification select all files/folders within the omni folder, re-compress them and rename the resultant archive file to omni.jar

 Firefox insists on doing huge amounts of I/O when closing, as well as act slow when using the awesomebar, try the following (close down Firefox completely first):
 <code>

+#!/bin/bash
+killall firefox
+killall thunderbird
+du -hs ~/.mozilla/firefox
