i just bought a new computer, downloaded the latest firefox (did not import any info from my old computer's firefox yet), and though i saw the expected prompt to save a password when entering one on a site once (i did not save it at the time), the prompt no longer appears. the same thing occurs for any site, it never asks me if i want to save a password. i've rechecked my settings, and i have it set correctly to ask for it (the box IS clicked to 'remember passwords for sites', don't have it in 'private browsing' mode either (the option is grayed oust), have disabled any add-ons that i had (i only have AdBlock and McAfee as add-ons), have restarted Firefox multiple times, and still no luck, it never asks me if i want to save a password for any logons on any sites. i'm running Windows 7, and using Firefox 3.6.11. HELP! thanks.

This happens only when I use a shortcut to invoke Firefox. I am running Windows 7 professional. The Firefox window opens after the error message occurs, so I would classify this as an annoyance. Several help postings mention removing "ddeexec" from Firefox registry entries. This worked for a while (it seems to be related to Firefox updates) but now no longer works: ddeexec is removed but the error message still occurs.

when i start to use firefox on facebook it works ok for a bit and then it starts not responding or is really slow. i never had any problems with firefox till these latest updates. what could the problem be. it's very frustrating and i have always liked using this until now.

i have deleted program and reloaded it and have same thing

In the past couple of days I lost all my online audio on FF. Is there a switch or something I may have disabled that can cause this or was it the latest upgrade????

As I said it just happened in the last few days........

It has been a nightmare the past week. www.pogo.com games are not working and java is installed. Something is wrong with java and I haven not been able to play any games for 8 days now. I am so sick and angry I can spit blood.

I am already emailing another tech support at www.liveperson.com and I can't get a definite answer. I need help badly. Is there anybody I can call to have this worked out????

When I close Firefox, the windows closes normally, but firefox.exe still appears in Processes in Task Manager. I have to End Process to open Firefox again, and it goes to Restore Last Session page.

Quando eu fecho o Firefox, a janela fecha normalmente, mas o firefox.exe ainda aparece no Processos do Gerenciador de Tarefas. Eu tenho que Finalizar Tarefa pra abrir o Firefox de novo, e quando abre vai para a página de Restaurar Última Sessão.

firefox updated itself, evidently with the version with Yahoo Search. I think Yahoo Search is inferior to my old favorite good one and have not been able to rid myself of the Yahoo search.....

All search engines have been eliminated except for my old favorite good one.....still yahoo

Reinstalled firefox from download several months old....all search engines eliminated except my old favorite good one. .... still yahoo.

Wrote hate mail to Yahoo called them everything but white, they reckoned they'd won and thought I should start with firefox after all it's their browser.

How does one go about getting rid of Yahoo Search? tnx 73's p

I click the Update Flash Player button on the Firefox Updated web page which takes me to the Adobe Flash Player download page. Clicking the download now button takes me to an instruction page displaying screen shots to expect during the process. The information bar at the top of the page says there's a missing plug in but clicking the "install missing plug in" button results in "no plug in found". There is no other button or active link on the Adobe page which allows me to move forward with the process. This same thing has happened the last several times Firefox has updated. Flash Player has not been updated for a long time.

Each time there has been an update for Java I have downloaded it. I now observe that in the Firefox Plugins I have three versions of Java Console. I know I can disable the two earlier updates. How do I delete these from appearing in the Plugins.? Please. I don't want to end up with a string of Java updates appearing!!

I begin uploading video to Facebook and a small window opens to show the progress bar but, the video stops uploading about every 5% when a notification comes from the top bar stating: "Firefox prevented the page from reloading" with an Allow button on the right. Regardless of clicking the allow button and putting Facebook in every exception list Firefox options seems to have or even turning pop up blockers off, that dam button keeps coming! How do I prevent or disable this? I am running windows XP media center edition SP2, and have Firefox v3.6.11

Suddenly I try to post a link on Facebook and I get a pop-up headed "Sorry! Post Blocked to Prevent Spam" followed by "You appear to be using a browser plug-in that attaches spam to your Facebook posts. To complete this post, please remove this browser plug-in or use a different computer." I have not installed any new add-ons, have disabled or uninstalled anything I thought might remotely be questionable, but I am stymied.

when given the option after update completed, to try new persona I choose an autumn scene. However, it is so dark that I am hardly able to see my toolbars/menus. I want to UNDO but am unable to locate the option in Mozilla

When Firefox 3.6.11 came out I wanted to update. I clicked "Apply Downloaded Update Now..." and then just restarted without updating. I went to the download page, downloaded the installer and upgraded that way. It worked, but now it still says"Apply Downloaded Update Now..." in the Help menu. Why is it doing this and how can I fix it without losing my bookmarks and settings?

I downloaded myheritage.com software which automatically and without my consent changed my default browser from firefox to it's own. I changed the default back but I still can not connect to internet with firefox. The openning tab is labelled (Untitled) and clicking on further tabs produces the same. Also, none of the features - search etc work, all lead to same blank, contentless (Untitled) tab Updating firefox has had no effect

I installed a new, second printer and made it the default printer. I'm also using the old printer. Firefox doesn't recognize the new default printer and only works with the old one. How can I get Firefox to work with the new printer? I'm using the latest version of FF. Thanks.

The update to version 3.6.11 seems to have broken my location bar. My history and bookmarks are still intact, but the location bar doesn't offer suggestions. I've already checked the "When using the location bar, suggest..." setting, so I don't think that could be the problem. Any advice to fix this?

I live in the Uae. I chose to download firefox in British English and Arabic text is also coming up on on the pages. This means I can't understand what some of the options are. How do I lose the arabic and make it pure english? Can I lose the arabic? Or do I need to choose a different search engine?
