I give up. Too much to read and too small. Zooming just makes it worse. I suspect I will be totally blind or everything will be screwed up before too very long. (sigh!) Someone needs to do an app that uses a white cane to navigate the net. Eyes and fingers just don't cut it any more. Everything

Always remember, when in doubt, don't pause for thought, or accept responsibility for one's own actions, just blame Microsoft as an instinctive, knee-jerk reaction. However, despite my urge to do that, everything with Mozilla seems very straightforward indeed: http://support.mozilla.org/en-U

Hi Colin, Sorry, I did finally locate the pop-up, but it only offers Bing as an option. Part of this may have to do with my having increased the size of the Cursor with viewing Zoomed in quite a bit. But it's pretty obvious there is something rotten in FireFox. (smile) Thanks, Joe Wilkins _
