When I start to login to Mvelopes I see 2 user names, mine and one that showed up as an error. I tried deleting the cookies for the site but that didn't get rid of the error. I don't have that error if I login from Internet Explorer, so I assume it is a Firefox problem. See snapshot

You can use these steps to remove saved items from an autocomplete drop-down list.

  1. click the (empty) input field on the web page to open the drop-down list
  2. highlight an entry in the drop-down list with cursor Down key
    do not click the mouse or press the Enter key
  3. press the Delete key (on Mac: Shift+Delete) to delete the highlighted entry

Note that hovering with the mouse no longer works.

That would be the form filler built into Firefox. Click in the field and enter a character or two and STOP ! Using the arrow keys, highlight an unwanted entry. Then press Delete (Mac=Shift Delete). Repeat as needed.
