    I have 2 questions for those who use firefox browser.

    1) how do I set the text size so I don't have to keep changing it all the time? I is so big.

    2) is there a way to put an icon for my email on the toobar, so I don't have to go to start and then click email?

    New to firefox. Thanks ya'll

    is your email webmail? if so and you want to bookmark the page...
    go to the page
    click bookmarks at the top left of firefox
    choose 'bookmark this page'
    a box pops up, choose folder - a drop down appears, choose
    "bookmark toolbar"
    then click done
    you can shorten the 'name' to 'mail' so it doesn't take up the whole toolbar

    for the the font
    go to tools
    options
    content
    then fonts and colors

    Hope this helps with the text size.

    As for the email icon. You can drag your icon from your desktop or wherever it is and place it in your taskbar.
