When I installed Firefox on my new computer, it came with a new thing called incredimail and My Start. It screwed up everything, making it impossible to restore my settings. I deleted Incredimail using the Control Panel but My Start continues to upload everytime I open Firefox. I can't find it in my list of programs or in my program file on my C drive. How do I get rid of the damn thing? Jim MacNeill

After uninstalling Incredimail (free) on my laptop, I also couldn't get rid of the MyStart search option. Waste many hours. Easy answer... Firefox home page... Firefox drop down menu on upper left... select help... select troubleshooting information... click on Reset Firefox! Voila! Problem gone!
