In private browsing not working in Firefox 3.6.12 If I open yahoomail one session for one account and if I open other session for yahoomail, it automatically opens the earlier mail account. But if I want to use more than one yahoomail accounts, in private browsing is not working. Please suggest.

That problem isn't related to Private Browsing specifically, that's how Firefox works with regards to multiple "sessions" with the same server - only one logon is allowed at any time. Try using one of these extensions to be able to run multiple session cookies.
