Since updating to Firefox 10.0, a couple of things are happening 1. when I minimize the window (to work on documents on my hard drive) most times I am getting booted off the net. 2. when I connect to net, websites that I had logged out of and closed hours before are automatically opening with me still logged-in

Any suggestions? Thanks !

Hi,

Please check if this happens in Safe Mode

Uninstalling Add-ons

Uninstalling Toolbars

You can try setting the Firefox option to either Never remember history or Use custom settings for history with Always use Private Browsing mode in Tools (Alt + T) > Options > Privacy. Even otherwise, if Settings is active, you have to make sure that Cookies and Active Logins are not selected. Options > Privacy
