Hi

I am having problem with FIREFOX. When I try to download something, a download dialog box SHOWS up but when I click to save file, the dialog box become disabled. If I press Ctrl+Esc it can be ENABLED again.

Also, when my windows 7 starts up, the start menu button will not be clickable, after I press Ctrl+Esc then it will work.

All of these problems still HAPPEN even after fresh installation of windows 7.

What can be the problem ?

thanksDid you install any other programs after Windows 7 clean build before installing Firefox? Where is this Win 7 from ? ?To: DaveLembke

I installed Realtek Ethernet CONTROLLER Driver before installing Firefox.

I bought a recovery disk from online and use my product key that came with PC on it.Does it say Microsoft on the disk ? ?...if not return it.To: Patio

It does not say "Microsoft" on the disk but the web says the disk has Microsoft Windows 7 backup system image which fully complies with Microsoft's policy.
Suit yourself...

It may be an image for a different PC which would likely explain your issues...To: Patio

But before I bought the windows 7 recovery, I also downloaded another iso image of windows 7 (I do not think this iso is modified) from a web site and problem still the same.

Does my problems sound like a corrupted windows 7 or is there anything that I can do to fix it ?

thanksDownloaded ISO of Windows 7 was likely an illegal download. You really need to buy an original Microsoft Created and Issued Windows 7 Disc with License or contact your computer manufacturer for their specific system recovery media set which is cheaper and both are legal vs illegal. To: DaveLembke

The web I downloaded windows 7 said it is a legal copy because they do not provide product key. I use the product key that came with my PC. I went to Microsoft website to look for windows 7 iso and they have it but it gives me error when download it.

Where do you think I can get a genuine windows 7 from Microsoft ?

thanks
What error from the MS site ? ?If you still have the copy of windows DVD disk then you can find it on card inside or if you purchase your window on Microsoft website. You can find it on the email that you use when you buy windows online.To: bailey

My PC came with already installed Windows 7. I do not have any physical copy of Windows 7 DVD disk.

It has never been this bad before.
Weeks ago the audio delay on streaming videos was barely noticeable. Now on Netfix is comes to almost 2 seconds from lips to ear. Very annoying. Sometimes you can not tell who is talking.
I get this both on Firefox and Chrome. Bother are very recent versions.
Ant ideas?
I am using XP on my old machine. Worked fine a few weeks ago. no BIG changes to speak about. (Will try Windows 7 to see if it matters.)
Any ideas?
So I booted up Windows 7 and went to Netflix and started off whee I was watching the third episode of Jersey Girl. And it works just fine.
So Why? What is it about XP? Why does XP mess up the audio?

Wait..... Just now I tried and now it works!

I give up.
I can not understand the Internet.


I have doubts that its internet related. Depending on the hardware specs it might be just the Windows XP systems hardware is an old dog running a marathon to try to keep up with new tricks. Was your system doing anything in the background that might have made the system busy other than streaming?

I had a HTPC that was a Pentium 4 2.8Ghz with 1GB RAM running Windows XP and it had a EVGA Geforce 6200 256MB video card 8x AGP in it with S-Video a few years ago and I had similar problems to what you have with offsets between audio and video when the daily antivirus would kick in for a quick 10+/- minute scan.

It seems that the GPU not hindered by a virus scan was able to process the video with no problems, but the conversion process for the audio from packets to an audio output required a good DEAL of CPU time and when antivirus was running the audio would lag.

Its nice that a small power efficient Roku replaced a Pentium 4 system saving about 120 watts of power and my HTPC I had a wireless keyboard and mouse with my own custom HTML with hyperlinks to navigate to online streaming networks etc, and the roku I have no menu to have to manage. Additionally the video quality of the RCA connection to TV vs S-Video is far better. The S-video had blur when there was any text on the screen and picture was not the sharpest, but the roku with RCA audio video is pretty sharp when a stream has a good connection and it can sync at the better quality stream.How much free HDD space is there on the XP rig ? ?The XP is on C: with 50 GB free nd bout 45 GB used.
I have yet to find a pattern, Sometimes doing a reset and starting over solves the problem. I think maybe a virus scan in the background might be the thing.
It also could point to a connection issue on the XP rig...
Just sayin...Well... maybe I will only watch using windows 7.
Hard to understand, working good a few weeks ago. whats hardware specs of the xp system?
My desktop is:
Dell Optiplex 530 with Windows XP, 7 + 10
(triple boot)
RAM is 2 GB
All OS are 32 bit and legal.
Video is the built-in Dell video.
Network is normally running at or over 5 Mbps.
Firefox has Silver light.
AV is Avast free version.

As mentioned, works good on Windows 7.
The behavior on XP started recently. I can only assume there is some kind of background. After a reboot and fresh start, the problem goes away.
I have not seen this on Amazon. Only Netflix.
Right now I am watching it in a new wined while I type this . But it does not affect the sound or video In fact, the video and audio is very smooth. Can't be the full moon, that was two days ago.

Hi,

From Firefox, when I open some web pages, I found a small picture is ADDED at the top-left corner of pictures. If I right click the small picture and select "Copy Link Location", I can GET "javascript:void(0);".

My question is how to REMOVE that small picture?

Thanks a lot for your help!

[attachment DELETED by admin to conserve space]I believe that icon shows on images that are not SHOWN full size, when you click on that icon (or perhaps the picture itself) is the image shown enlarged? If I'm right, the icon won't be displayed on the enlarged image.

Thank you.
That icon (the small picture) shows on image is on it's full size. When I click on that icon, the whole image haven't enlarged. And you can see the options for me to select.


[attachment deleted by admin to conserve space]Hello,

I realised that icon can not be removed! That is inserted onto pictures by the sebsite!

Thank you.

I USE XP and firefox 29 and I get the following box need i do any thing is this common legit or not?

[attachment deleted by admin to CONSERVE space]Not legit...i'd IGNORE it.Classic scam... note the poor GRAMMAR.

I have a LENOVO Laptop Win 8.

My laptop crashes or froze everytime I am watching a video online and only when I don't have my power cord connected. Could this just be some kind of plug-in issue or windows issue, or browser issue?How old is the battery ? ?...any ERROR messages ? ?I don't know how old is the battery. But the battery is fine I think. It only happens when I don't have my power cord connected and only when I am watching videos, like it happens when I'm on Facebook too, and site that has videos. There are no error message. It just froze. I can't do ctl+atl+delete. All I can do is SHUT down manually.If the battery was fine it would stand to reason that the crashes wouldn't only happen on battery power...just sayin.Quote from: PATIO on January 30, 2016, 02:57:39 PM

Hello,

I have a problem setting the default program for PDFs via REGISTRY for IE11.

With the key:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\FileExts\.pdf\UserChoice

I am ABLE to set the default program for PDFs on the Desktop / Windows Explorer - unfortunatly this doesnt effect the IE Settings.
In IE11 always the latest installed / updated PDF program is set as default program to display PDFs.

I would like to be able to set / switch between Adobe Acrobat Reader DC und dem PDFXChange Editor as default program for IE11 via registry settings for all of the computers in our domain.

OS is Windows 7 Pro 64bit and the latest version of IE as well as both PDF programs.

Does anyone have an idea?

ADDITIONAL information:
Wenn I use the option "Open with..." to set the PDF default program, this doesnt effect the IE setting - but when using the builtin function in both PDF programs to set as default, then it does work for the IE as well.

Thanks for any help in advance!

Best,
SASCHA

I am trying to use xmeye.net I have keep trying to log into website and it prompts me to download active X which I have DONE multiply times. I later found out that active x is only supported by IE, (WITHOUT needing extensions) so I decided to try and view website through IE, but STILL not working. I also don't know what IE version I am using, since I can not access the file menu in my IE. (Alt and f11 not working either) I think my IE is out of date or corrupted, if I any one has a LINK so I can update IE, I would appreciate it. I am running windows 10. You already have a post on this issue...

Hi
I have been trying to change my browser LOCATION on my WIN7 pc, i live in Québec City, but it thinks im in Montreal, so i i want to use services that detect my location, it always wrong, any help?Doesn't matter where you live...it's picking up your ISP's location...not yours.ok and do you know a chrome plugin tha makes the browser think im in québec city from an actual postal address or something?
I know you can fake other countries but what i am trying to achieve is more specificThe browser gets location information via your IP Address. Oftentimes it doesn't work.

I'm on the West Coast on Vancouver Island and oftentimes sites appear to think I'm in Toronto, for example.yes for me it picks up I'm about 8-12 hour drive away from where I am... I am near Seattle Washington and when I need a phone number or store hours from a local store it always tells me the closest store is in Idaho.... I know there are stores closer to me! so it's where your isp is located.... Quote from: BC_Programmer on February 15, 2016, 10:57:54 PM

While reading, I saw thus LITTLE thing pop up and block part of my view. It said I COULD send this page to a mobile device. I did not try it.
My question is: Does this work good? Is it worth the effort of signing in for yet another service? Maybe I ALREADY have something like this. Google? Yahoo? Outlook?

Please let me know if it works for you. I've also wondered about the Pocket but have not USED it yet. When I read your post, I searched and found https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/save-web-pages-later-pocket-firefox. Looks like a cool feature. I think I want to try it.

I have noticed Edge being sluggish and more demanding of CPU resources than Firefox. Today, for example, I had 5 or 6 tabs open in Edge, with it being the only browser I had open, and the computer I'm using had some noticeable sluggishness in browsing and when opening other apps such as WPS Writer and WPS Spreadsheets. Granted, I had 2 tabs open for Kelley Blue Book (kbb.com) and it is a heavily tasking website. But, with Edge closed and Firefox open with 25 tabs and then opening kbb.com and obtaining a price quote on a CAR, I did not experience the negative impact I noticed with Edge.

I have drifted away from Firefox for periods of time but I have enjoyed using it with Windows 10. I have the latest version of Firefox, which is 42.0 at this time. During the months I've used it with Windows 10, it has consistently performed well with many tabs open and/or viewing complex web pages. One feature I like very much is being able to right click and get a popup panel with Forward and Back buttons for NAVIGATING pages. With Edge, moving the mouse pointer up to the upper left corner of the window to click the Back or Forward button is REQUIRED. soybean

Just came across your post so I thought I'd put Edge through its paces a bit. As I post this I've got Netflix streaming on it and have had no problems in the past. This may be a dumb question and forgive me for asking, have you rebooted your pc lately?Yep, I always shutdown at night and start it the next day. I don't use Netflix but I THINK you need to have multiple tabs open and displaying numerous websites to encounter the sluggishness I mentioned. If I only have one website open in Edge, I think I might not notice it being any slower than other browsers. I am not a big fan of edge, on my basic work laptop (Asus 4gb ram, 1.9ghz) edge is noticeably slower with only one window compared to CHROME. I am not a fan of Edge. Microsoft has to know that it just isn't reliable and they don't seem to be fixing it. Edge opens for a brief amount of time and closes on its own. In Windows 10 some apps won't open at all and others do the same as Edge. They open briefly and then close on their own. Hello Microsft, have you created another browser that js going to end up being just as disliked as Windows 8/8.1??

I have Win10 on this laptop only, and I have Win7 on everything else I have. They are both 64 bit. I am able to sign into Chrome on all of my Win7 machines, but I have tried every trick I know, incl. the exact instructions that Google offered. Let me say here the Google CEO should be shot for the ultra crappy support they offer, and for making FREE volunteers to do all of their dirty Cust. Svc. There, it's out of my system.

The way I fixed the PROBLEM in Win7 was adding another Chrome user. I signed OUT of Chrome on Win7, then created a 2nd user, using the same email, and it worked. However, the same approach just won't WORK with Win10. I've tried creating a local Admin account in Win10, and signing in with that, but still no success. I've tried using the 32Bit, and 64Bit Chrome versions. I've posted on Win10 Forum, as well as the Chrome Product forum. Again, those guys are pathetic, I've been better at finding solutions than they have. The guys at Win10 Forum were great at least at offering VIABLE solutions, but they can't figure it out either, and they ARE NOT having issues. BTW, before you ask I just had to buy an entirely new HDD on this laptop, and install Windows all over again, and it STILL doesn't work.

Any suggestions? I'd suggest doing away with Chrome and using Firefox or another unless you need chrome for chromecast etc. Im not impressed with chrome myself. Some people like it but I avoid it.

from the windows 10 system can you log onto your gmail account WITHOUT use of chrome, which I am guessing your loging in as for chrome with edge or another browser to know that the problem with that computer is specifically chrome and not an issue with authentication as a whole with googles servers to gmail etc?Logging into google...and/or Gmail is not browser specific...You've said that signing into Chrome on Win10 doesn't work.

Do you receive any error messages? What happens when you try to sign into Chrome on Win10?

What is the purpose of "signing into Chrome"?

I hope I'm posting this in the right area of the forum - I apologize in advance if I have.

This website was perfect and then a couple of HOURS later it looked like this photo attached -- no matter what browser I use it looks like this. Is there something at my end of that caused this or is it just the website? If my end, how can I correct it?

Thanks in advance!

[attachment deleted by admin to conserve space]Probably the website. You are just getting the plain text. I have seen this quite often. Sometimes the full version comes up after a delay, or it's OK after a while if you go back. It looks like this to me now:


Probably their site, but I have also gotten partial page loads like this before when on wireless with sketchy signal. Part of page loads and browser thinks its fully loaded and you end up with a very lacking version of the website displayed. If its wireless caused it should be corrected by moving to an area where wifi strength is stronger.

For the fact that its just this one site and not others... Its more than likely the site. But just throwing out there the other causes of this sort of problem, and wireless NETWORK weakness caused.Thanks for the help. I wasn't sure if there was something on my end I could do to fix this or if not. I've cleared cookies, CACHE, etc...
I just did a system recovery thinking this would resolve the issue (and fix another unrelated issue). Website still looks like text to me after the system recovery. lol.

I am hooked up via Ethernet instead of wireless to a HP ENVY DESKTOP (Windows 10).

Is there a cookie setting or something else I can change on my computer that will keep the bold font listing of a thread title bold after I have viewed that thread. ALTERNATIVELY, an my real question is 'on my other computer, why would thread titles not change to non-bold after I have viewed that thread'?
I know I'm not explaining myself very good so attached is an example of a message board on which I have VISITED the thread titled "402 Stroker" (circled in red). The thread title is no longer bold because there have been no new post to that thread SINCE my LAST visit to it.
Is there a setting that would cause this to not happen, where the thread title stays bold whether I have visited it or not.
If so what setting would this be?

[attachment deleted by admin to conserve space]On all Forums if that option is available to change it'll be listed in your profile under appearance and settings...
Optionally you could PM the WEBMASTER and ask them...

Recently I go a Neutab G7 Android 5.1 tablet. In my frustration, I removed the CHROME bower. Now I want it back. But the Google Play Store says I already have it. So what do I do now? How do you install a program you removed?
Please? I'll assume it works the same as an android phone. Go to the play store and tap on the three horizontal bars in the upper left. Select "my apps", SCROLL down to Chrome and tap on INSTALLThanks Allen, Got it!
Yes, it is just like the phone. My Google account shows I have several installs. I had to select the one for my Neutab and tab on it and found a new windows with the install option.

What was CONFUSING is that the Play Store said it was already installed. Which it was, for other devices. So there is a drop down menu. After doing a DOUBLE tap on Neutab G7, it showed another install window.

Your suggestion made me look again in the play store.

Glad you got it sorted out.I still think CH needs a action on Mobile devices.

No I did not use EITHER of those on mobile or desktop computer.It WOULD be best to contact True key support and they would take the remote of your computer and check the issue.

I do not think this is a OS issue. Maybe not even a browser issue.

Whenever I go to gmail to check my mail, I have to adjust the font size by using the ctl+ combination to zoom in. (Like other seniors, I have the low vision problem.) Yes, I l could use the magnifier, and sometimes I do. Brut it is more convenient to just user the zoom feature fouled in modern browsers.

Look at this:

(To conserve bandwidth I reduced the size of the image.)

Thee is no horizontal scroll bar, so I can not slide over to see the right side of the screen. But if I zoom out, the font is much too small for me to read. For some reason gmail thinks I would rather see the left sidebar instead of the text of the messages. Is this not a flaw in gmail? What can I do to make reading gmail easier.

Am I the only PERSON that has this problem with gmail?
Any help welcome.
This is an issue with G-mail that has been reported QUITE frequently on their issues pages. Often in different contexts. The usual reply is to blame the user for having the audacity to want to use their software in a particular way. "Reduce the size of your fonts" is not a solution, despite their repeated claims that it is. They should be fixing their software, not working up new ways to blame the user.

you might try the "basic" mode. It doesn't use any AJAX or javascript so it shouldn't be disabling the scrollbar. Browsers display the scrollbar when content is beyond the viewable area:

EDIT: Basic mode link:
http://mail.google.com/mail?ui=html

That said, the page might be explicitly disabling scrollbars. You would think browsers would have options to prevent this to workaround web designs created by egocentric companies who can't accept that their software might have issues, but I can't seem to find any.

In Chrome there is an extension to make the Gmail left sidebar resizeable, but you still won't get a horizontal scroll bar when zoomed so far that message text flows off the right side. Still you will see a bit more before that happens. see here:

After I did this in Firefox I could zoom a message in Gmail and see a horizontal scroll bar up to 200% zoom, but it vanishes at the next zoom level (240%).

Dear Experts,

! C:\Documents and Settings\Touraj\Desktop\clip 1.part2.rar: CRC failed in the encrypted file CD1.iso (wrong password ?)


Password is correct i get this error in 32% if somebody knows how to fix this problem, tell me

Thank you so much!
With that error CODE it's most likely the source file...The problem is that you have a bad archive. WinRAR runs from one file to another adding to the full archive. In this case something called CD1.ISO

Like patio said it looks like you have a bad source file. Do you have a bunch of files? Something like this...

file.rar
file1.001
file2.002
etc...

It seems like one of the files is corrupted. You can TRY to run the repair but I have had no luck with that. Your best bet it to download the archive again.

I have a mini laptop that I am trying to set up for my Dad. It had Internet Explorer on it but somehow the program has been damaged and I cannot connect to the internet. I would like to download Mozilla FIREFOX to a usb THUMB drive from my desktop then install it on the mini laptop but when I ask it to download it installs it to the desktop and doesn't give me the option to change to the thumb drive. Can anyone advise me on how to do this? Or suggest an easier way? Any advice is greatly appreciated. Thank youFirst of all, IE cannot be damaged as such. If you are having problems with it, post the problems and we'll try to help.

Second, download Firefox from here: https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all/#en-US And if you are gonna run it from a thumb drive get it from Here...

I READ your Post too QUICKLY...before you DLoad change your browser DLoad destination to the thumb drive before DLoading in Tools/Options...Desktop is probably the default DLoad directory.And it's okay to download it to the computer and then transfer it to your usb drive. That way you'll have a copy of the file in both locations.

This morning I tried to sign in on my Home Page to my AOL mail and got the message that it couldn't find the SERVER. I then put aol.com into the browser and got the AOL home page, but it refused to let me GET to my email page. Tried my yahoo email and that would work EITHER. It would let me connect to NOAA (weather), CH, a photog website, and ebay. I figured it might be a PROBLEM with my browser, Firefox, so I switched to Microsoft Edge and that did exactly the same thing. Some sites would come up and many would not. I have Kaspersky Total Security and updated Firefox LAST evening before signing off. I have no idea if it has something to do with Kaspersky or settings somewhere that I know nothing about. Has anyone else had this problem. I am running Windows 10 and my internet is through Hughesnet which I've had a problem with lately. Keep getting DNS server messages. Have no idea what that means. If anyone has had this problem and/or knows how to rectify it, please let me know. I will just have to keep checking back for answers as I can't get to my email to check for notices of answers. Thank you.

I get the following message when trying to post to a user group:

The IP (number scrambled) is my router. Spamhause is of no help. neither are any of the other address block removal sites. This problem only happens with one group (I can post to all others). I contacted that group and they tell me "they have no record of my the address being blocked on their site".

Does anyone have any ideas what might cause this?
Thanks. Jim B.Only thing you can do is contact the site...
Blacklisting USUALLY happens for a reason.

P.S. if they say they have no record of it they haven't looked hard enuff...I did a Google on:

Forgive me if this post is in the wrong place, I couldn't think of a better one. Yesterday I got on my pc and an error showed up saying "A network-related or instance specific error occurred while establishing a connection to SQL server" "(provider: Named Pipes Provider, error 40 - Could not open a connection to SQL Server)." Along with other things but I think that is the most important part. I had never heard of these SQL servers but after doing some research the most common thing people would say is to make sure my SQL browser servers were running and to go through some steps to turn them one, one of which was through the command prompt which didn't work. Another was to just find it in my program files but the only things in there were 2 folders 1 TITLED "Microsoft SQL Server" and one titled "Microsoft SQL Server Compact Edition" and I couldn't find anything useful in there. I'm thinking somehow something got deleted on my computer so I don't have the SQL server browser anymore but I'm not sure. If anyone knows about the SQL servers and could maybe help that would be greatly appreciated. I should also add that my computer does say I am connected to my Internet and I am even able to open Steam and chat with friends but not able to open the steam store, and also I'm on Windows 10 and have been for a while now.Have you run an extensive VIRUS scan with an up to date ANTIVIRUS and ran the free or paid for malwarebytes to ensure your system didnt get hit with anything? Are you able to use a restore POINT to go back to a time when your system didnt have this issue?

It sounds like corruption or infection in your system with the browser. Steam CLIENT works because its working through its own services that are not browser dependent.

I own a blog link removed by allan I am a web designer and I use for firefox as my main browser to make updates to my website, because as we know firefox has awesome plugins.

Before 3 days firefox suddenly returns to me a blank page when I call the adress when all the other browsers DISPLAY my blog just fine. What happened? And why only happens to my blog? I went to other PCs with firefox installed and my blog was displaying just fine. I never had a problem like this using firefox. Any IDEAS?

[attachment deleted by admin to conserve space]Works fine here...
Double check the site address in Firefox...

Or are you just seeking page hits ? ?

Haha, page hits on a computer forum. What is the point they are so many SOCIAL networks to find page hits.

Yeah I know that works fine to other computers. Why not to work fine on mine? Something is happening to my computer after re install apache for editing locally my blog. Anyway, is very weird problem I never faced before, I will use Chrome until the time that I will FORMAT the computer. Thanks anyway for the help. Then i think you should again check your BOOKMARKS shortcuts...it ain't Firefox....i suspect your linked to your edit page.

When I start my PC, I can sometimes use access sites on my browsers (Chrome/Mozilla/IE) for a short time, a SHORTER time, or I can't at all. In the end it seems LIKE I'm not connected to the INTERNET regardless, but this is apparently only HAPPENING with the browsers. Also, I just ran Tor, which I never use, and it updated and worked normally. And when I boot in Safe Mode I can use all of the browsers normally. I also noticed that when I boot my PC in normal mode, and for the short time that I can (sometimes) use my browsers, when I go to Google, it looks like 2007-something Google, really archaic. In Tor and in any other browser in Safe Mode it looks normal. I have no clue what's happening or what's causing it. Please HELP, and thank you.

Google chrome is on of the best browser for to hack password. In this method is so simple.
First go to chrome and OPEN it go to settings.
In settings click on show password then save it.

Hi,

I have a PC at work with Windows 2000. I cant use Internet Explorer Mozilla or Firefox. I went to Network Connections and it says connected. I RAN IPconfig/all and the IP address is 0.0.0.0. The error I get in IE is can't find server or dns error. I was able to use IE by creating a dialup connection for a couple minutes only. I ran nesth,interface reset all, routing reset all,routing,dump,bye & exit. I ran IPconfig & there was a valid address but still coulnd't use IE. After a while, the IP address went BACK to to 0.0.0.0. I tried to Ping another PC(I can use IE on this one) and I got an error about host not recognized. I already went to IPsec & TCP/IP filtering. I went to regedt32 ad checked HKey_local_machine\system\controlset001\services\dhcp. TCP/IP is set to automaticall detect IP adress. The DHCP client services is set to automatic. Device Manager says that adapter is working. The adapter is Intel Pro/100 VM. I tried to update the driver. Windows said that it found an driver that was more compatible to the adapter. I tried to install the driver but then it asked me to specify a location. I dont have CD or floppy drive with Windows 2000. Under Network adapters in Device Manager: There are 3 ITEMS that have an x. One is Wan Miniport (IPX) #2. And the other 2 is for Wireless. Also I have yahoo and google toolbar for IE. I ran Malwarebytes before I left. When I go to work I will see if the PC found anything. Also this PC doesnt have any Anti virus software. Any IDEAS?

Avast antivirus still supports Win2k. I use it on my old laptop running Win2k. All versions of Firefox work with Win2k.OK Thanks.Quote from: Computer_Commando on June 25, 2012, 04:28:26 PM

All versions of Firefox work with Win2k.

A few days ago I noticed that when I played videos online, there was an odd echo, and at times, when I turned the audio up, I'd get feedback through the speakers. I determined that the microphone had somehow got turned on, and was playing through the speakers. After doing some troubleshooting (which included comparing processes RUNNING during normal operation and during the malfunction) I've come to the conclusion that it's the Flash Player Plug-in that's causing this to happen because the problem goes away if I go into the Task Manager and shut down the "Process Tree" related to the Flash Player Plug-in.

I can tell when the mic's on by tapping next to it and seeing if the sound comes out the speakers. The odd thing is that this also happens when the computer first boots up, before a user is chosen.

Is this a common problem? Do I need to worry about my video camera being on too? I don't THINK I've done anything to warrant the NSA's attention but...

I'm running Windows 7 Home Premium Service Pack 1, Firefox version 23.0.2, and Shockwave Flash 11.7.700.224 and would appreciate any help I could get. Thanks for your time!

-HWWhile a mic being enabled like this does RAISE suspicion, I would try the following. Uninstall Firefox completely. REBOOT computer, and reinstall Firefox. Be sure the plugin you are getting is from Adobe and EVERYTHING should be good. I am not aware of any poisoned versions of Flash Plug ins that have wrongful INTENT embedded in them to listen in on you. To me it sounds like some really odd corruption, which may be resolved by a reinstall of the browser clean and flash plugin. I would also make sure you have the latest audio drivers as for it may be a bug that has a fix.

And I would also make sure that antivirus is up to date and run a full scan just to be sure its not some sort of a hijacker. I am unaware of amny malware that enables microphones. There have been hackers out there enabling webcams, cameras embedded or attached to computers to snoop etc, but I havent heard anything about a MIC hack yet.

BTW if this reinstall doesnt fix the problem and system comes up clean of any problems, what is the hardware info for this computer to look at chipsets and drivers. If its a store bought computer please specify make/model, and if its a home made build please include all specs.

Well, I'm looking at different browsers for vending on Steam, and a couple Internet Explorer based browsers don't function properly, meaning they won't let me purchase goods off of the market.

Since I'm vending, I'm looking for the fastest BROWSER I can get that runs the scripts on the site. The one I found most efficient was Crazy Browser; albeit the last update was 2 years ago.

The problem occurs when purchasing anything I see that I can afford, I get the following message:

"There was a problem purchasing your item. The listing may have been removed. Refresh the page and try again."

Now I've done a lot of checking out with different browsers, Google Chrome, Internet Explorer itself, and a few others that have engines based of IE that work no problem, except they're slow. Upgrading internet isn't an option, and wouldn't be too efficient if there was a faster browser that I could use if it worked, right?

My computer specs:
Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit, 8GB Ram, AMD Phenom x4 Processor, and an NVIDIA GTX 560 GPU. All of my Adobe applications are up to DATE, and I'm pretty sure about Java as well. I'm running 64-bit on those as well.
If Steam is the Valve Steam Gaming/Software site, I had an issue recently myself where I had to uninstall it and reinstall it. But issues I was getting were that I was able to access my software library, but it said I was offline, yet I was able to search online at titles. The problem I faced was when downloading a free game or demo to try out it wouldnt download and complained I was offline even though I was online, tried to select to switch to offline MODE and then online mode to force it to go online and it still stated offline. Uninstalling Steam and Reinstalling the Steam Client Fixed this and I was able to purchase a $2.49 game which was 75% off the $9.99 original price tag with no problems. I use Firefox 99.9% of the time and IE .1% of the time when software that requests to register etc pull up IE instead of FF by a direct IE "url" call.

BTW even though you do not WANT to upgrade your internet, what do you have for internet connection? And what do you have for bandwidth at www.speedtest.net for download and upload speed?

For the last few days when I click on the Internet Explorer icon the browser won't open at all. TODAY I've managed eventually to open it twice but as its loading a box pops up saying Internet Explorer has a problem and needs to close and it SHUTS down. Chrome browser opens ok. Anyone know how to sort it out.If this is a recent issue, have you tried using an earlier restore point to get it working?

or perform the following process at this LINK: http://www.wikihow.com/Repair-Internet-ExplorerHi, thanks for replying. I'm going to try your first suggestion but I think trying to find System Restore on Windows 8 is like trying to find a needle in a haystack but I'll try that first.
If I follow your 2ND suggestion and uninstall Internet Explorer, where do I have to go to find it to reinstall it again.

Hi & THANKS for TAKING a look at my question.

This is not a problem, but, I sometimes add things to Ebay for my friend on his account. So log into his account on my computer and do the deed. When I log on to his account I choose not to remember the password in Firefox.

Later, when I log onto my account I get my details and account so on, but if I do a browse of some things to look at and add to the WATCHLIST, suddenly I find HIS NAME, but with my watchlist and active listings.

So how does the cookie (?) become so confused and change the name details?

Is it Ebay or is it my computer?

Thanks for any suggestions. ImnoGuru.Well other than deleting all the COOKIES via, History, Clear all Recent, I went through the ones that I THOUGHT were from the time frame & deleted the ones I believed were causing the problem.

So far it seems to be OK.

Hmmm was it really that easy?Actually NO it is NOT that easy.

I just got bombed with the same problem.

I'm not sure if this is the right subforum for my QUESTION. When I used the home button (google.com (I'm sure)) on my browser today, it redirected me to google.comebay.com twice and then it just started going to normal google.com. The site that showed up on google.comebay.com looked EXACTLY like google, but I didn't USE it for obvious reasons. Do you think I have a browser hijack or something? I checked all my addons and everything seems fine. Should I just ignore this? Maybe it was just something weird with the DNS?It sounds like it could be a Google Redirect Virus, and if it is, it could be serious. You need to CHECK if it is and then remove it asap. If you google "Google Redirect Virus" you'll probably find a STEP by step guide which will explain it. Good luck!

Hi, I know this isn't probably the best place to put this, but I'm new I really don't know where to post it.

Ok so Ive LOOKED up what is a good internet speed, some say 15mbps, some say your fine if you have at least over 8. Some say 4. But Ive been experiencing internet problems all the TIME, and my friends have a better internet than me and never encounter problems. My AVERAGE Download speed, TESTED with speedtest.net, is 3.81 mbps, is that... good? I am using Clear Wireless Internet, my friends USE road runner, is road runner better than Clear, if any one has any knowledge about the two services please comment.

Thanks, reply soon.Quote

I have been on a social networking internet site for over 6 years (MeetMe.com)... yesterday *poof* I couldn't access it. When I try to access it, nothing happens (I just stay on my home page) OR it will load, after about 10-15 minutes, but the login page is not correct... just a list versus pictures and correctly formatted. If it does load (incorrectly) when I try to enter my login information it just goes right back to the offkilter login screen (in other words... will not log me in). I can't access the site from my laptop or my Android device. My son is on the same site and he can login just fine (on his netbook) AND he can also access my profile from his netbook as well! A sidenote I was on the site with both my Android AND laptop at the same time before the problem occurred.

I have tried:
clearing my cookies, history, etc.
putting the site on my trusted sites
making sure the site was not down for everyone (it is/was not)
accessing the site from Facebook and e-mail (from the notification e-mails I am inundated with from MeetMe)
pinging the site from the command prompt (but I realllllly don't understand what information that provided me)
contacting the site administrator who said it was a problem with my computer communicating with the site
turning off my firewall and lowering my antivirus protection (just to see if I could access the site)
tried accessing it under compatibility view and control F5 to fully reboot the site

Meetme has always been rife with problems but this seems to be a problem with my computer and the site.

Soooo... I just need some HELP to ascertain if somewhere between my computer and the site there is a problem!

I have Google Chrome and Internet Explorer 8/Windows Vista

And it is worth noting that I have no issues at all with accessing any other website...

I am not a beginner with computers but definitely not an expert!



Since you went ahead and pinged the website, were you able to get a response?

Also try changing your dns servers

Right click your LAN or WLAN (depending if you are wireless or WIRED)
Click properties
Highlight internet protocol Version 4 (TCP/IP)
Select properties
At the bottom click where it says "Use the following DNS server addresses"
Prefered dns 8.8.8.8
Alternate dns 8.8.4.4

Post results. The above is a good idea, also just checking have you tried both Chrome and IE (you mention both) with the same result?
How about your Android, same problem? Is it connected via wifi or mobile data? If it's on wifi, the suggestion above should fix it - if you're having the same problem with two separate devices it pretty much has to be an ISP issue, and DNS is what I would suspect.Another thing. Some local service providers block or blacklist some specific sites with no explanation. But in some cases the block is not by them. Instead, the site you want is blocking you, b recuse they don't like you.

In either of the a above, one can try using a proxy. There are many.
Just one of many.
http://www.canadaproxy.org/
Do not pay for a proxy. Don't download software they offer.
Here is one I have used.
http://www.freeproxy.ca/
Hope this is of some help.
-------------
Also, ASK your ISP to change you IP.
@Yasjalnadie
I went to my LAN, Internet Protocol Version 4 (properties) changed it from 'obtain DNS server address automatically' to 'use the following...' using the 8.8.8.8/8.8.4.4 then Ok. I restarted my computer and I didn't see any change. Exact same problem. Did I misunderstand or miss a direction you gave me?

@Calum

I tried both Chrome and Explorer. The only difference I have seen is that Chrome goes to the list, on the site, versus the correct format, much quicker.
The Android device is the same. I CAN log in occasionally but everything looks really strange and I can’t use it.
I have a wireless router that I access the internet through… on all of my devices/computers/etc.

@Geek-9am

Here is something interesting. I tried it (pretty cool~there is so much to learn about computers!!!) using a proxy server. I CAN log into the site, using my laptop, but I can’t access any of the components. As in if I click on my profile, click on anything for that matter, I go back to the proxy website. I can’t see any of the ‘postings’ but the website LOOK as it should and I could log in. Which is a big leap in the right direction!


Soooo… what would the fact that I can log into the website with a proxy (but can’t use the site) be indicative of?

I really appreciate the help of all 3 of you, immensely! I just want to know what the problem is on sheer principle. I couldn’t even sleep last night TRYING to figure this out! Some proxy sites may have more tools for you. The site is using a secure connection and the proxy can not work around hurdles.

You are being blocked. But who? hard to day.

If you use another service, the problem with go away. Go to a neighbors''s house and use their Wi-F ™ and see.

Were you kicked from this site at any time ? ?Quote

My son is on the same site and he can login just fine (on his netbook) AND he can also access my profile from his netbook as well!

Hi

I got a present of Acer C7 Chromebook (IM totally CLUELESS). My old laptop used Windows & I usually PLAYED movie torrents using VLC. I've no problem downloading torrents on the new Chromebook with uTorrent but I cant seem to find a media player that plays all different files. Every time I download a media player a message pops up saying "This file TYPE is not supported. Please visit the Chrome Web Store to find an app that can open this type of file". I also tried downloading VLC plug ins but the same message above keeps coming up

Any ideas??

Please & Thank you

Lost my FLASH player after removing FIRE fox now the new version does not WORK with firefox 3.6.3 what version with XP and fire fox 3.6.3 should I USE Non-IE or IE and what number?

JohnI'm merely going to SHOW you this and let you figure it out: http://www.google.com/search?client=opera&q=flash+player+for+firefox+3.6+download&sourceid=opera&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&channel=suggest

Short and sweet, I can surf ok but frequently will get messages in the lower LEFT hand corner of Firefox (ver 22) about waiting for a site(s): PF hub, google-analytics, ip addresses, cd.doubleverify.com, a4.live.liverail, pagefair, vac.advertising, r.openx.net, flash.quantserve, lots of them. See the same thing in IE.

I use SANDBOXIE (w/Firefox) and have not had any issues since USING it. But also still have my AVAST. Occasionally run Avast scans. Never finds anything. I could download Malwarebytes but I don't trust cnet, softpedia and other sites any longer. Anyone know an absolutely clean site that I can get MWbytes from?

Importantly, I don't think it's a virus, I think it's something like cookies. It's not that I don't get to my destination, but I know the browser is exchanging info w/these sites and I don't know how to stop that so as to surf faster. Doesn't happen all the time.

I'd like to know what causes this and how I can speed up FF getting to my destination. It's highly probable I don't have a virus. Could someone explain what these messages are? Something w/ proxies?
Often pages CONTAIN items served up from other sites; Firefox is merely reporting that.

Thank you. I was running across cookies, proxies, viruses...

Hi. So recently my computer was infected with spy/adware..such as that *CENSORED* Babylon toolbar, FunMoods, IMtoolbar and some Turbo thing. I ran a SpyHunt scan with the free scanner and it found several threats, however, as I don't have the money right now it of course told me to buy the program to get rid of it. I just clicked on the threats ad REMOVED them myself.. Now, ONE of the threats was in the C:/Users/Vaio/AppData/Roaming/Mozilla/Profiles folder and stupidly, desperately wanting to get these annoying things outta my system deleted the folder. I then got then a message saying it cannot be loaded, so I deleted the profiles.ini file to create a new profile..Great, now my Mozilla WORKS..my bookmarks re however, GONE.. I am devastated. I had several bookmarks in there. I then installed "Recuva" to attempt to get the deleted folders from the recycle bin back..however, of course that particular one won't show. Please, please dear god let me be able to get my bookmarks back. I am going to pull out all of my hair..Please, tell me there is SOMETHING I can do?! I feel like an idiot right now. Thank you... I have faith I can return them. Heeellp!!!!Sorry, your faith is not well founded.

For what it is worth, before making any important changes to your system, you must have a backup plan already in place. Have you ever made any BACKUPS? If so, an older copy of your bookmarks is there.

Have you ever let IE import settings from FireFox? There would be another copy of your older bookmarks.

Mozilla has tools that let you import and import settings. Both between browsers and machines. And between Users.
Sorry, that is the best I can do.

Too late now. This is for future reference.

Hello, just found this forum, hope you can help.

I want to buy from http://www.customleavershoodies.co.uk/airedaledodgers

I usually only enter my payment card details if the webpage (or frame within a page) is an https: address.

On this site both the main page and the frame show as unsecured in my browser. However when I "view source" for the frame I notice it is running a script which comes from a secure page https://www.formstack.com.

Does this mean it is safe to enter my card details?

If so, how could the average internet user ever hope to figure this out?!

Thanks for some help, Dave.
As a general rule of thumb davenine, entering credit card details on any website can leave you exposed to credit card fraud.
You should email them for an alternative method of payment in my opinion. Check also that they have an actual address and phone number and an alternative communication method.

Just how much do you know about this commercial enterprise?

I suggest that you get a second card with a small limit on it, say $1000, to use for such transactions. That way you are limiting your exposure.

Even you card provider may ignore your tale should a sudden transaction max out your card without you knowing.

It could be up to 55 days before you become aware of such an event, in which case the perpetrator is long gone.

But then again I am paranoid about credit cards on the net. Try paypal or some other method of payment.You can ask for a cash on delivery option or other secured payment like paypalQuote from: davenine on June 17, 2013, 03:55:01 PM

then you should probably should not have a credit card since using a credit card on such sites is no riskier than using a credit card in a restaurant or retail store.

American Express
If you have an American Express card you are already covered by their consumer protection plan at no extra cost to you. Their Identity Theft Assistance program gives you access to operators around the clock who can take action at once. Unlike other cards where you may be responsible for the first $50 of fraud, American Express has you covered.
Equifax
Along with Trans Union and Experian, Equifax is one of the three credit reporting bureaus that monitor your credit. When you enroll in their ID Patrol plan, Equifax will keep tabs on all three of your credit reports and provide alerts to you in the event key changes are made to your credit. You also gain access to credit repair specialists and have a $1 million theft insurance policy to back you up.
Visa
Similar to American Express, Visa offers a consumer protection plan to cardholders in their NETWORK for no extra charge. Cardholders have all of their expenses covered by Visa and have access to a panel of trained volunteers who can help you in the event of identity theft.

you should probably should not have a credit card since using a credit card on such sites is no riskier than using a credit card in a restaurant or retail store.

With a retail location, you merely have to assume that the retail outlet and all the framework between it taking your data and using that data to actually charge you is secure- there is no guarantee. You don't get a "lock icon" basically- you have no idea if it's actually secure or if anybody can stick a flash drive in the office PC and steal all the credit card numbers and other information they want.

Apparently credit card fraud is a big criminal activity. Limiting your loss is a good idea. But why let a criminal have even $38 of your money.

There's nothing wrong with a strong level of paranoia or skepticism for that matter soybean.

For some reason I've lost the tabs page in IE9. This started about a week ago. When I click the NEW Tab button it just PULLS up my HOME page. What am I missing? Any IDEAS?
Go to Tools - Internet Options - click Tabs - there's a dropdown box for which page to show when you open a new tab.Thanks, that what I was missing.No problem, glad to help

Mozilla Firefox 23.0 released.
6th August 2013

Check out "What’s New" and "Known Issues" for this version of Firefox:
http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/23.0/releasenotes/

Download Firefox in your language:
http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all/ Thanks for heads up... going to update when i get home from work.

One odd thing that I have noticed with 22 is that if I have the browser open for a while 5 or 6 hours of surfing etc, my system memory shows more and more used over time to around 1.4GB even if browser tabs have been closed etc. If I close FF and re-open it, it goes back to Windows 7 32-bit running on 750MB idle and 850MB of 3GB RAM with browser open clean to home page of google. Not sure if the memory consumption is a leak or a temp cache in RAM that gets dumped when the browser is closed and reopened.

But looking here: https://www.mozilla.org/security/known-vulnerabilities/firefox.html

At the bottom of the list for many versions is "Miscellaneous memory safety hazards" with versions appended to them and it appears that even in FF 23 there are some still outstanding to be LABELED as critical.One of the controversial changes to this version is the removal of the option to disable Javascript, which is now enabled by default and provides no option to disable it, WITHOUT using about:config. I THINK I wrote a mention of this back when the change was first made public in some early alphas for version 23.
