Bug Description

allowed all the updates after the initial install .
fire up Firefox and when in yahoo mail , and new message opened focus goes back to main inbox .
don't recall this "feature"before , cannot read mail or even select options tab as focus is also lost.
any clues - is this just in the beta 2 release , or is there an option i'm missing - i have reset back to default as well.
i have tried changing all the tab features but same thing happens

I have the same problem too.

The bug started to appear to me after the system asked me "Do you want to install the yahoo mail whatever in order to have better and faster access to your email" After that thing everything starting to collapse. Because I installed the 13.04 in another computer with no problems and after I said yes to the message that appeared after I used firefox and yahoo mail then yahoo mail started to do the same things as it does in the other computer.

So how I unistall the yahoo mail thing?

So a temporary fix was to uninstall the Firefox which had installed the yahoo thing and the install it again.
And it works fine again.
