I have been assigned some work to help the office "catch up" and this is not my normal assignment.  Can someone help me with ventilator terminology??  I may be far off, but here is what I think I am hearing.

Must be a Firefox glitch - or you need to revise your security settings sm
Subject: Must be a Firefox glitch - or you need to revise your security settings sm

I had Firefox for a while, and it was okay, but I am so accustomed to IE that I went back to it. So I don't remember how similar or different the security options are. But you can try designating MT Stars as a "safe" site, or a site where you "allow cookies"....if you poke around in the Tools/Options settings, you should find something that will alleviate the problem.


Good luck!
