I can't get Firefox to take my AOL password. Just started all the sudden. I can get Safari to work but not Firefox.

Last week for no reason AOL asked me for my password. It wouldn't take it and said to change. I did change it... 7 or 8 times... it would never go through. Just kept asking me to change my password. Then I went to Safari. It took my password. No problems. I want to go back to Firefox for my server. What can I do.

Yesterday I got on and tried again. AOL had a live chat. I went on it and they said they were addressing an issue with Firefox. They would reset my password. They would put in the password and then send to me. I told them I didn't feel comfortable someone knowing my password and it wouldn't be secure. The person said... I would get sued if I got into your email. He kept pushing... But they needed the last 4 digits of my social security. At that point I disconnected. I don't know if it was a scam but they came on this chat and said that Firefox was having major issues. Just and FYI.
