I tried both actions but nothing was listed in either option. Thanks anyway. The only other thing I can think of is that in order to use Mozilla it must transfer data from my Yahoo.com account. Could this be the problem? Otherwise, I will simply Close the window each time I log out of my bank. Thanks
