Patti, you need to click the start menu and click the arrow (right after the shut down button, but don't click shut down), then click log off. Your new user account will be one of those profiles. Firefox has nothing to do with user accounts, it is a program on each of the user accounts.
Also, A likely place that the trouble is coming from is within control panel. Uninstall everything that says yahoo in control panel - uninstall programs. Let me know if you want me to post a picture.
These problems are probably the same going on in this thread (click to be linked to it) anyway, and it may help to have everything together so we know all of what is going on. | My System Specs | | Computer type PC/Desktop System Manufacturer/Model Number Dell Inspiron M5040 OS Windows 8 Pro with Media Center x64 CPU AMD E-450 APU 1.65 GHz Memory 4GB Graphics Card Built-in Radeon HD 6320 Graphics Screen Resolution 1366 x 768 Mouse Microsoft Wireless Mobile Mouse 3500 Cooling fan Hard Drives 500GB Internet Speed 2.86Mbps Download Speed, 2.85Mbps Upload Speed & 26ms Ping Antivirus Defender Browser IE10 |

All I did was go to the start menu, click of change user, and when it came up everything was gone!! All my desktop items, I didn't really want to go any further. But now I know what you mean about what changing users does. So I am back at my original user/ | My System Specs | | System Manufacturer/Model Number Vostro 220 Mini Tower Desktop Details | Dell OS Windows 7 Home Premium SP 1, 32-bit CPU Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Duo CPU E7400 @ 2.80GHz Motherboard Dell Inc. 0P301D Memory 3.00 GB Graphics Card (1) Intel(R) G45/G43 Express Chipset (2) Intel(R) G45/G43 Sound Card (1) High Definition Audio Device (2) High Definition Audio Monitor(s) Displays Dell 22" wide E228WFP Analog flat panelq Mouse Dell optical usb mouse vostro Other Info OPTICAL READER, MOUSE,SPEAKERS, MONITOR, MODEM |

Patti,
yes, everything is different in it. It is like a new banking account, you will not have money in it from another account, because it is different, just as an example.
What we were wondering is if you could find firefox, probably by typing it in the start search, and see if you are still having problems. Unlike my analogy, Firefox should be somewhere and useable in the new account (Like free cash for signing up!)
Basically the two accounts are completely seperate accounts. Most setting changes don't effect the other account, so you will always have your desktop icons in the other one, etc.
Let us know how it goes | My System Specs | | Computer type PC/Desktop System Manufacturer/Model Number Dell Inspiron M5040 OS Windows 8 Pro with Media Center x64 CPU AMD E-450 APU 1.65 GHz Memory 4GB Graphics Card Built-in Radeon HD 6320 Graphics Screen Resolution 1366 x 768 Mouse Microsoft Wireless Mobile Mouse 3500 Cooling fan Hard Drives 500GB Internet Speed 2.86Mbps Download Speed, 2.85Mbps Upload Speed & 26ms Ping Antivirus Defender Browser IE10 |

Patti: its not a problem, all your things are safe in your actual user. the new user we asked you to create is just to see how your firefox performs. you could call it a TEST USER ACCOUNT. after we get the results of your firefox, you can remove it | My System Specs | | Computer type PC/Desktop OS Windows® 7 Home Premium SP-1 CPU Intel Pentium(R) E5200 @ 2.50GHz Motherboard Intel Corporation DG41WV (PROCESSOR) Memory 4096 MBytes Dual-Channel DDR3 @ 398MHz Graphics Card ATI Radeon HD 5450 (ASUStek Computer Inc) Sound Card Realtek High Definition Audio Monitor(s) Displays DELL E170S on ATI Radeon HD 5450 Screen Resolution 1280x1024 pixels Keyboard Logitech PS/2 Keyboard Mouse A4 Tech Co Ltd/Logitech PSU 400W Case Nothing Fancy Cooling Fans Hard Drives 466GB Western Digital WDC Internet Speed 512 Kbps Antivirus Microsoft Security Essentials & Malwarebytes Browser Chrome & Internet Explorer 9 Other Info Imation 8 GB USB, 6 GB Seagate External Hard drive, ASUS DVD-E818A7T ATA Device |
