My homepage is set as my personal my yahoo page. Never had a problem with it until the firefox 13 update. Now when i open firefox it goes to the basic my yahoo homepage and says that i must have signed in somewhere else and will need to re-sign in to get my personal page and to have my personal toolbar load.
