I have a gmail address as my main e-mail address. Using Firefox I recently set up an e-mail for my wife on my computer when using the Firefox browser. I now get her e-mail coming up automatically when I access gmail from my computer while using Firefox and cannot access my gmail account at all. I can only access the gmail account using Internet explorer. Presumably there is some "cookie" on Firefox which sends me to my wife's acccount. I need to "switch" this off
