When I am writing an email, and am typing in name of addressee, program will NOT INSERT THE EMAIL ADDRESS of the addressee. Where do I change that ?
This browser was installed 2-3 days ago, and was working fine, then my husband got on the computer, and now it will not automatically feed in the email address when I am composing email. Help!

Is this in Yahoo! mail? Is the problem that Yahoo!'s autocomplete feature (looking up matches in your Yahoo! address book) is not working correctly?
Unless this has an obvious on/off switch in Yahoo! settings, you might try this general advice:
When you have a problem with one particular site, a good "first thing to try" is clearing your Firefox cache and deleting your saved cookies for the site.
(1) Bypass Firefox's Cache
Use Ctrl+Shift+r to reload the page fresh from the server.
Alternately, you also can clear Firefox's cache completely using:
orange Firefox button (or Tools menu) > Options > Advanced
On the Network mini-tab > Cached Web Content : "Clear Now"
If you have a large hard drive, this might take a few minutes.
(2) Remove the site's cookies (save any pending work first). While viewing a page on the site:
- right-click and choose View Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
- Alt+t (open the classic Tools menu) > Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
In the dialog that opens, you can remove your individual Yahoo! cookies.
Then try reloading the page and logging in again. Does that help?
