Doesn't the fact that many of your posts have been questioned by a number of members give you a HINT? Wanting to join a forum like this and help is great, and you're to be commended for it. But when the advice you give is questionable you need to expect to be challenged. Don't be defensive, instead try to learn from it.Broni thanks for those posts, I CHECKED the registry entries and they are set to yes.

Azzaboi, I followed your post and deleted all the sites I was having trouble with as per your instructions. Closed it all down and restarted the computer (just as a matter of course) and restarted the computer.

That seems to have cured the password save problem with them. (so far at least).
I dont use IE hardly at all and dont remember having gone to other sites with it, so it was an incredibly SHORT list.
I tested if IE was going to behave for me, by going to some other sites that need password entries, then closed and opened them again.

Success.

My biggest problem has been that I dont know anything of IE at all.

Imtired now I will thank the others tommorrow, when I can get my head around what they are saying.
Thanks ImnoGuruImnoGuru: Glad I was wrong and Azzaboi and soybean were correct and your problem appears to be solved.Allan thank you too, I see what you are saying here.

Quote from: Allan on February 28, 2010, 08:42:44 AM

No. The OP says IE will not save passwords on ANY site, not just one.

Right, and Azzaboi's procedure would affect/reset IE's behavior with all websites, not just one.

the instructions Azzaboi gave me, did the job, others of his instructions would have deleted ALL the passwords in all browsers, the 3rd option given.

I have a feeling this is a easy fix, I hope. But I'm RUNNING Mozilla Firfox, and when I try to watch videos ONLINE they only play while I'm moving the MOUSE. I tried to uninstall Adobe flash PLAYER and reinstall, but it still doing the same thing. If someone could help it would be much appreciated.

For a while, the new favorites I ADD don't show up at all in my favorites dropdown thing. I still have old Favorites, but any new ones simply don't appear. When I try to add another Favorite with the same NAME as an invisible one, it SAYS it already exists and asks me if I want to overwrite. It doesn't matter what I choose. It's not there. I'm running Internet Explorer 8 on Windows XP Home Edition. Help please! I'll be happy to provide any information you need to fix this glitch.

EDIT: I did a search for *.URL in My Computer. It found all my favorites, showing and invisible, in the same folder. But I'm still missing all my recent ones in Internet Explorer. This is very odd.

I believe in F-Fox the PLACE between history and extra is called;Hotlist in English.(I don`t know for sure,I`m Dutch).If I WANT to Delete something out of this list it shows(with r-click) the delete function but when I try it doesn`t delete.How do I get around this? Is it something I did wrong

Please HELP...Greetings;Eric.Hello Eric1611, I had a LOOK at your question but think you might have to explain a little bit more.
Allowing for the translation difficulty, the item after "History" on the bar is "BOOKMARKS".

From what you say, you want to delete something (a website address?) from the BOOKMARKS List?

Your process should be correct.

However if it does not work for you, you might try going to the "BOOKMARKS" name tag.
Left click to open it and the (4) fourth item down is "ORGANIZE BOOKMARKS".

Left click "Organize Bookmarks" and it will bring up another screen with all the items listed.
In the new window, the left hand screen is your main folders.

The right hand screen shows the pages saved in each of those folders.

You can select the item you want to delete in there and right click, GO to "Delete" and click "Delete"

I hope I have read your question correctly and this helps with your problem.
If not please make another post and explain a bit more.

Thank you ImnoGuruTHANKS !!! It worked like a dream.
Greetings from Holland;Eric.Thats great Eric1611.
Anytime you need a hand, send in a post and SOMEONE will be able to help in some way.

Best downloader that can DOWNLOAD any TYPE of streaming video? exept real player?

I am using real player for downloading all type of streaming video

But i can not RESUME the paused downloads whenever I restarts the system.

Could you suggest best downloader as per the above REQUIREMENTS?
If you want to rip videos off Youtube and such, I recommend this Firefox Addon:
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/3006Try OrbitDownloader. Its really good for downloading videos from sites. It has a grab++ option, which CATCHES videos on sites, and you can download them.

So if nothing happens then we know its one of the PROBLEMS with themes and add ons or extensions?
How about the speed in which the firefox opens? It seem to open faster in safe mode.Quote

Hello there

I saw this on a web site and decided to try it out

One more way to fine tune Internet. Explorer load time
If you do this little trick, application load time may improve significantly. Right Click on shortcut to Internet. Explorer in taskbar ( If you do not see it right click on taskbar,click toolbar and select quicklaunch) , click on properties and under shortcut tab look for Target field. It should say some thing like "C:\Program Files\Internet. Explorer\IEXPLORE.EXE". This is typical default. I am suggesting you to put " -nohome" without quotes at the end of this string with one space in between. It should read like this "C:\Program Files\Internet. Explorer\IEXPLORE.EXE" -nohome. Doing this would help load the application quickly as time would not be wasted in connecting to home page again and again. This is good for normal use as well.

I tryed this out but i kept getting "invalid path" can this be done, or is there a mistake is this path.

This is from a site called xptune up, so it is for xp.... but maybe not for xp pro

Any ideas

Have you done this?

Right Click Desktop --> Create New Shortcut.

Target (exactly as follows):
Code: [Select]C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\IEXPLORE.EXE

OK
Ok again




Try opening the shortcut. What happens?

You could set your homepage to about:blank in the IE options.

Nope... uninstalled and restarted, still doesn't work.What browser, version is it?Well I am using Mozilla FIREFOX and Internet 6.0.

I've tried on both of them and neither of them work. Its nothing with their website because I access it from work, I just can't access it from my house.Norton.

As a first hand observer i can state that the triple shooter fece attack is far more effective than any Tusk attack on record...
That being said the main issue is that all 3 attackers will at ONE time or another feed on grain ALTHOUGH walruses are less prone to do so if there are SWARMS of sardines nearby.

One thing that has been overlooked in the ranking #'s is that belugas although possessing magic can be particularily ineffective as they will flee upon sighting the head gardener from a nunnery...this flaw was exposed in the epic battle Isle of Dongle vs. Quinn's Pub regulars.

At any rate all of these petty details should become quite clear in Spring when they fire up the Hadron Collider for a 2nd time.
Indeed- I forgot about a belugas tendency to flee when sighting the head gardener from a nunnery. In their defense, It was a Nun who wielded the beluga smashing hammer in a previous battle, so their fear is justified.

So it is settled- the pidgeons would definitely win- NOTWITHSTANDING that the Belugas have a Rock CANDY, which is unlikely.



If you don't have Isle of Dongle vs. Quinn's Pub regulars on DVD send me a PM and we'll make arrangements...

Lately, when I'm on a .com website and click the "contact us" button for more information, and it happens to be a link to a hidden email address, I get a blank blue screen pop up. I can close the screen by right clicking the blank button on the bottom--then close--and it goes away.

After that, if I right click the "contact us" box in the web site and click "copy" then it puts the hidden email address on the CLIPBOARD and I can manually paste it in my email.

Is there a WAY I can go back to the way it used to be?

Edit---Now that I've SEEN some SAMPLE medium-blue screens in a SEARCH, the blue screen I get is lighter and more blue/green if that helps.What does the blue screen say?
What browser, version?Happens with I.E and Firefox in Hotmail, Verizon and Gmail

Hi guys,
I have just finished up-grading my SYSTEM to a P4V533-MX motherboard with XP Home, 40G and 10G HDs and 500Mg RAM (not the best system but way better than my old PIII with W98) I am using Opera 9.62 as my Browser - I am limited to Dial Up and find Opera roughly twice as fast as IE7 or Firefox.
The problems I am having is that TRYING to view my bills on Canada E-Post, everything seems to work except that the final "view bill" page opens with all the headings and options but no bill in the body of the page I've tried Mastercard and my tel bill with the same result.
I have also found that trying to list an add on Kijjiji that pictures will not upload - the PICTURE upload icon just keeps running indefinitely.
I'm pretty sure this is not firewall or security settings and both these FEATURES work on IE 7 although very slowly!
Opera's website is no help and I'm hoping their be a patch out there for one or both of these problems - any suggestions appreciated.

1.Is it POSSIBLE to get infected with a virus by just entering a site /w firefox browser

2.how do you REMOVE those message box pop ups that seize ur whole browser untill you click yes or no

And are those dangerous when ever i click yes or no or the X on the top right its just explodes in other pop ups

3. How come the firefox pop up blocker hardly blocks any pop ups id say 1/2 the pop up that pop up don't get blockedTry AdBlock...a FireFox extension.
You may ALREADY be infected THOUGH...to be on the safe side visit our Virus and Spyware section and follow the INSTRUCTIONS at the top of the page for posting your logs.

Hey everyone

I built a website in the tripod FREE website building program and when I go to edit text boxes in the site in firefox, the box is kinda greyed out. I can only edit text on my website in internet explorer. Anyone else have this problem?Quote

Anyone else have this problem?

If I save a long book , say a couple hundred pages, does that slow computer's internet use? That would mean I should only save url and hope document isn't taken down. Or I could and should save to a CD instead? Any large download could produce some general system slowing and so reduce browsing speed - but VARIOUS factors will come into play. Speed of connection is one and if slow then probably browser might BEHAVE slower during download period - you haven't supplied any info on that.

Then your system - how much speed, caching, RAM etc ... all factors affecting how much spare PROCESSING ability you have when busy. I wouldn't expect to see too much CPU use needed during this kinda thing but for sure your internet connection will have QUITE some influence.

If you want an e-book - and say it's 3Mb PDF - probably best to initiate the download and leave it be for the duration - then resume browsing. Save/burn to a CD will be best done secondary to download IMO.When you are saving tons of files in your computer, your HDD memory will be getting low. When it comes to the point that your HDD drive reaches its maximum capacity it will make your computer run slower than usual. TWO notes:
1. You should always have at least 15% free space on your computer.
2. Filling up your computer's free space doesn't reduce your internet speed.3. Disk space is not "memory".

The address bar has a small arrow at the far right. When I click on this arrow, it DISPLAYS possibly the browswer history, or it recommends bookmarks or something. I cleared the history, ran crap cleaner nothing is changing this list. This problem all started when I updated to the lastest firefox. In the least I wish to CLEAR the list, ideally if that arrow and any drop down list would disappear, I would be very happy. If it is any help there are gold stars on the far right of the history listAre you talking about the RSS feeds? is it an orange button with three curved LINES going through it?

FBtoothless,

What you are seeing are your bookmarks. Firefox added this little feature in 3.0.

you can REMOVE this IMO intolerable ADDITION, just google it.what exactly should I google? Fireballs - now that you mention it that rss feed can go as well. All I really want is for the things on my computer to stay familair. I have neither the time nor the will to invest in learning something new. If anyone of great importance is listening- please, stop changing things, we do not like unfamilair.Talking about this?

Just today on YouTube I am getting these strange queares where words should me.
I am stuck in my youtube web page and can't close it out.

I am using windows internet explorer 7
hp PAVILION XP
ram 387

[Saving space - attachment deleted by admin]You are at a youtube location that is in a foreign language...post the link.I believe and I am sure that my problem was my IE7. I downloaded it again and it is FIXED. I had IE8 which I THOUGHT was good but it was giving me trouble so I uninstalled it and the computer went back to IE7.

thefonzThe lesson: never install beta program on your main computer!

Is there a genious out there?

I am running IE8 on Windows XP service pack 2 and I cannot log in to secure pages, EVERYTHING works fine on all sites except when I TRY to log in with a user name and password, the page hangs and I get the page cannot be displayed message.

I have

Loaded Firefox and Chrome still the same thing
Run Spy Bot Search and Destroy the same thing
Reset the Belkin wireless router to factory settings several times same thing
Reconfigured internet security settings in many DIFFERENT ways .......
Disabled Firewalls .......
Removed Norton.......
Removed all Anti Virus......

If any one has an idea I will be eternally grateful!

When did this problem start happening?It started ages ago and I didnt really bother for a long time. It must be approaching a year.Not sure what the problem may be...

Try this.
Download and Install
CCleaner.

When it is installed, run it and make sure the following checkboxes are checked.
Internet Explorer --> Temporary Files
Internet Explorer --> Cookies (optional)
Mozilla Firefox --> Internet Cache
Mozilla Firefox --> Cookies (optional)
System --> Temporary Files
System --> Empty Recycling Bin (optional but recommended if low on disk space)
You can CHECK whatever else you want but you should know that whatever you check will be unrecoverable.
When you are done, Run the Cleaner.


If that doesn't work, I found this:
http://www.helpwithwindows.com/WindowsXP/troub-10.html1. Click Start, and then click Run.

2. In the Open box, type one of the following
commands, and then click OK (copy and paste is your
best friend):

regsvr32 softpub.dll
regsvr32 wintrust.dll
regsvr32 initpki.dll
regsvr32 dssenh.dll
regsvr32 rsaenh.dll
regsvr32 gpkcsp.dll
regsvr32 sccbase.dll
regsvr32 slbcsp.dll
regsvr32 cryptdlg.dll

4. Click OK when you receive the message that says
DllRegisterServer in FileName succeeded.

5. Repeat for each command line listed aboveThe mystery is solved. APPARENTLY the router needed to be set at 1400 MTU not the 1431 that talktalk told me to set it at.All right then, good job.

Clearing your temporary files wouldn't hurt though. It may benefit your computer a lot.Interesting solution. Bookmarked.

For about a month or so I've had the problem that when i'm typing, every once in awhile it will just stop typing like it froze. My mouse will still work but nothing will type for a couple of seconds. Then it will go back to normal. I have XP professional SP2. 2 gigs of ram. I've just started using firefox and I have not had the problem. I just don't know too much about firefox and I had everything set up the way I liked it in IE 7 so I would like to keep that working.

Thanks for the help, I hope you understand.

NathanClose IE.
Go Start>All Programs>Accessories>System Tools, and click on Internet Explorer (no add-ons). Same thing?well when I go to system tools, I don't have that option. I tried to look for that option from system tools too but couldn't find it!

TRY this till Broni comes,



1)Open Internet Explorer 7.


2)Choose Tools from the menu.


3)From the resulting drop-down menu, choose Manage Add-ons, followed by Enable or Disable Add-ons....


4)In the Manage Add-ons window, choose Add-ons that have been used by Internet Explorer from the Show: drop-down box.

5)The resulting list will show every add-on that Internet Explorer 7 has ever used. If an add-on is causing the problem you're troubleshooting, it will be one of the add-ons listed here.


6)Select the first add-on listed, then select the Disabled radio button in the Settings area at the bottom of the window, and click OK.


7)Click OK if prompted with a "For changes to take effect, you might need to restart Internet Explorer" message.


8)Close and then reopen Internet Explorer 7.


9)Test whatever activities in Internet Explorer were causing the problem you're troubleshooting here.

If the problem is not resolved, repeat STEPS 1 through 7, disabling one more add-on at a time until your problem is resolved.Quote

well when I go to system tools, I don't have that option

Sorry if this question has been ASKED before, I did read through some of the posts, but couldn't find my problem.

I downloaded Firefox a few months ago, but it will not let me perform SOFTWARE updates. Does anybody know why? I have a Mac and I'm sure I download the Firefox version for Mac.

Are you doing anything else while you are software updating?
When you are running software updates, or installing new security patches, you shouldn't do anything with your Mac while it's running through the last "Optimizing System Performance" phase of a software update.It will not let me perform updates! It says updates completed, but I can see the last update was from the spring. So something is wrong I just can't figure it out.What exactly are you trying to update?You could always do a backup of your Profile and DLoad and INSTALL the latest MAC version and Import the Profile...Firefox has got to be the best browser. how can anyone think IE is great with all the current problems it is always having come on.
Even chrome is better than ie and it runs much smoother. I haven't changed over yet my love for firefox is too real.
Peace out mate Quote

So how would I go about configuring the firewall to actually make my site "work"?

i installed updates one of them was ie8 beta and now i can not connect. i can connect using chrome, i have made an exception for ie in firewall,still nothing. i have xps3. any suggestions? thank you for your TIME problem SOLVED, i needed to check automatically detect connectionIE8 is in beta stage, and it shouldn't be installed on main computer!!
If it came through WINDOWS updates, I assume, you had beta1 installed before.
Do you have SP3 installed? If so, and it was installed after IE8 beta 1, you're stuck. There is no way to uninstall it.system restore?system restore worked thank god, that beta was crapy.. if anything says beta does that mean its in testing stage? thanks"alpha" is when a company test a program internally
"Beta" is released to POTENTIAL customers of the release version for bug reports on a larger scale then the Alpha test stage.

so- yes, Beta is SOFTWARE in the testing stage.

It is.I come here for my daily dose of warm and fuzzy! I did some MALWARE cleaning and a defrag yesturday and still not much of a difference. But what I have just noticed is that the system is no longer REGISTERING one of the STICKS of ram. I noticed this in the BIOS. I replaced the stick with another stick out of an identicle MACHINE and sure enough it picked it up. No more vram messages on my screen do your browsers still crash? Or is all well for you then?No crashes since. Strange I have never had a stick that died usually they are just DOA or good to go. Good to hear you fixed it! Although I imagine we were more of a hinderance then a help in this instance.

Is there a way to add a second SEARCH bar in Firefox? I find it annoying having to switch between GOOGLE and WIKIPEDIA constantly.You can USE address bar as one search window, and "Search" bar as a second one.You can also add Wikipedia search results to Google search results, by using "Customize Google" add-on, or some of GreaseMonkey scripts.you can SCOUR search bar to your firefox or IE browser.

My computer had VIRUSES and a friend fixed it and now my msgs are all gone from the Outlook Express and is there any WAY to get them back?Exactly how did he fix it, may I ask?Hi, thanks for responding. He said he had to erase the hard drive. I think the mgs were on the hard drive. But I didn't know that when I let him take the computer to fix it. I don't know a lot about computers. I wish I had known. I wonder if there is still a way to get them back.If he erased the hard drive, your MESSAGES are gone.

Ask him if he backed ANYTHING up.you can get back the data back from the hard drive, you need to use data RECOVERY softwar to get the data

This is a youtube ad for DanierLeather. I can go to you tube and WATCH it there but can't get the video portion of the upload to play from my email attachment
Sent uploadThis is upload link
http://www.uploadbigfiles.net/download.php?file=915GirlInABar.wmvIt plays fine here, but you didn't answer all my questions.
Can you play regular video, like video DVD, not video on the internet?
Is the above video, the only video, which doesn't play?
If more, than ONE, all from one sender?
The video, you uploaded...is this the very same video, which you received as an attachment, and it doesn't play on your computer?I can play dvds and CD. I am only having trouble with the video I receive by email. Any source I receive it from, I can only get audio not video.
It is the same one I received and won't show audio on my computer.
If I get a you tube video I can go to you tube and watch it. Its just when I receive it as an attachment and have to download it that I can't view the video.This is very interesting issue.
Did you notice, if all those attached VIDEOS are in .wmv format?Yes
I also notice when I take a pic with my vid cam and try to view it,it loads thru Nero and it won't complete the download. It is a jpg file and nero states it can't download itVLC has all codecs included, so it should play any video, but....get K-Lite Codec Pack STANDARD: http://www.free-codecs.com/download/K_Lite_Codec_Pack.htm
Restart computer, and try to play the video in WMP, and VLC.I'll give it a shot

I am trying to get onto a site " my service Canada Account" and every time I click on the link, IE7 shuts down and DISPLAYS an 'sysFader: 1explore.exe Application error' message reads: the instruction at "0x7c90100b' referenced memery at "0x000000lc" The MEMORY could not be "read" Click ok to terminate program. I am tired of trying to figure this out myself, can anyone HELP I NEED to ACCESS the info on this site.Well - I have come to conclusion that occasionally IE7 just seems to hate certain code content.

In this situation I'd have as first choice a try with FIREFOX ... in the hopes that it would manage where IE cannot.
