you have to be logged in the new user account to browse. just like you are in your current one.

If I just log out of ff and log back in it doesn't say anything about user accounts, I have no idea which one I am in now?
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.
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/
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
Dust sailor, when I switched to my new name, I had firefox and trash can, no toolbars. Aren't my system specs already on here?
If I go into my new user account, there is nothing there but trash can and IE and firefox, I don't want that
your actual user is alright don't worry we just want you to test how the mozilla ff works there
