Until you changed my home page, I had set it to go directly to my mail. I now have to use a magnifying glass and go through additional pages to get there.. My sight is very limited and it is hard enough to use my computer without changes being made by you.

Not Happy!

This proved impossible and as my sight isvery poor, the process of finding my e-mails is now tortuous and I will almost certainly change my provider. Everything was fine with my mail page coming up on using a desktop short cut until 2 days ago and now I have to log in each time and find my mail.

Sorry to hear you still have problems.

Unfortunately we do not know exactly what initial changes or further changes have been made. We may often ask for screen shots and/or additional information but that may not be very easy for you to do. We dono

Sorry for the shouting, but I realise that with partial sight you may easily miss the subtleties of links being a different colour.
The site accessfirefox says "we provide: Accessibility tools and resources for Firefox end users with disabilities (primarily visual impairments) "

Perhaps you know someone with full sight who may be able to help you answer our questions, post screenshots, and look at the suggested links. You will probably find many older school age children are a dab hand at sorting out this sort of thing, otherwise do you know anyone else who works with or is interested in computers.
