When I log out of my bank account, it says to close the browser. Does that mean I need to close every tab that is open? Thanks!

When using Firefox on my desktop computer, I usually have 3-4 tabs open. Whenever I log out of my banking website, it reminds me to close my browser for security reasons. Does this mean I need to close every tab when I log out of a secure site? Thanks. I'm using Windows 7 and the latest version of Firefox.

It depends on how paranoid you are.

There is a theoretical risk that a site in another tab or window could read through the history of your banking session and extract information, but that probably is very rare.

You definitely want to close the browser before leaving the PC available to another person.

Well, your answer kind of makes me a little paranoid, but it is very much appreciated. Thanks!

You may want to clear the cache as well because Firefox 4 and later also cache pages from a secure connection (browser.cache.disk_cache_ssl is true).
