[Simply Computers] Re: Firefox issues

 

I have no idea why you have a login issue but that "input.mozilla" link is not the one to use for Firefox support. So, just forget about your login issues at that site. Perhaps the problem is with the site and not one that you can correct.

You should find assistance here:
http://forums.mozillazine.org/viewforum.php?f=38

At that site, register and then present any issue that you are now having in a detailed, but concise manner. At this time, don't even bother posting to them about the login problem at that input.mozilla site. Just address your primary issue, which if I read correctly is about updating Firefox.
