I expect more information is required.

What sort of group or message are you talking about? IE and Firefox are
web browsers, so it can't be newsgroups.

Thanks Dan but I don't see a "link colors" Underline yes & thats
checked. What am I missing.? Maybe a better explanation would help. Using
IE, yahoo main page, yahoo groups. When looking at a message within any
yahoo group it turns a color so you know you have looked at that one as well
as letting you know where you left off if you leave & then come back later.
Thats what I was looking to duplicate in firefox. Thanks gimpy..

what version of FF are you using. If its 2.x, then there are
two sections. One is called Text and Background, and the
other is Link Colors. Under Link Colors it contains
Unvisited Links, and Visited Links.
