Cursor sometimes jumps back to username box while typing password in Yahoo. Prior to Ver 4, used to be able to go to TOOLS tab for a tab to delete all entries in past hour, thereby deleting those visible elements of the password in the username box.

Click the orange fire fox button, then select the History menu, the option to clear recent history is there.

If you want, you can access the old style menus by pressing either Alt or F10.

Your problem can be caused by an extension that isn't working properly.

Start Firefox in Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot Mode to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).

If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.

  • Use "Disable all add-ons" on the Safe mode start window to disable all extensions.
  • Close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")
