This issue involves accessing an errant Comcast email address through Comcast home page - Comcast records do not show this username exists anywhere within their system, and said it is a firefox issue. The unwanted name only appears when using firefox to access Comcast home page, and the drop sign-in window. When you click on the bad username, the message states the address is not recognized. The bad username does not show when the Comcast home page is brought up using chrome, or internet explorer. Would appreciate advice on how to delete this unwanted username that seems to be hiding somewhere within firefox system. Grateful to all who would attempt to help.
