The box has two buttons. One says 'save to my Yahoo!ID' the other says 'no thanks, just save to this computer'. I can press each button but nothing seems to happen. The only way to get rid of the box is to close firefox. I am using an HP s5713w-b and windows-7. I downloaded the firefox with the Yahoo enhancements.

Start Firefox in Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot Mode to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).


In Firefox 4 you can use one of these to start in Safe mode:

  • Help > Restart with Add-ons Disabled
  • Hold down the Shift key while double clicking the Firefox desktop shortcut (Windows)
