When I'm signing in, Yahoo!Mail remenbers the user names (Yahoo!IDs) that I previously entered. It must be a cookie since this behavior differs from computer to computer that I work on. How can I identify/delete/block it? I don't want this feature to be enabled.

in the top menu: tools > options > privacy tab > Show Cookies

Then find the cookies with 'yahoo' in their name, and remove them

Alternatively, you can just clear out all of your cookies.

Another way to see the cookies from the current page:

  • Open the Yahoo website via the location bar or a bookmark.
  • Click the website favicon (How do I tell if my connection to a website is secure?) on the left end of the location bar.
  • Click the "More Information" button to open the "Page Info" window with the Security tab selected (also accessible via "Tools > Page Info").
  • Click the "View Cookies" button in that pane to open the Cookies Manager and see all Yahoo cookies.
