Click on the orange button in the top left hand corner of your screen, then click options. Then enter the security tab and click the button that says saved passwords. When you have done this, find the username and password you wish to delete, single click on it and click the remove button.

Thanks for your help. I'll let you know if I am successful. I have asked several computer "expert" and none could give me the information you have given me. Thanks again! Anna
