Every time I go to click on Firefox it defaults to this location. My machine won't update adobe or the flash player to the newest version. Why did this start just 2 days ago? I have Firefox clicked not to update. I have gone to the info bar on about:config and made sure it was false. Nothing works.

One year ago there was already a discussion about: Why are my webpages transferring data from www.chaosserver.com? The Chosen Solution was: Chaosserver.com is part of this company: http://www.chaossoftware.com/ Does that ring any bells?

I'm sorry, but that rings no bell with me. So I have to ask again: Firefox is endlessly transferring data from www.chaosserver.com. How can I stop it?

The Plug-in check page has been appearing every time I start Firefox for the last couple of weeks. I'm in a corporate environment and have no rights to download any software. Yes, our versions of software are old. No, I can't do anything about it. Just get out of my face, please... Too much to ask?

- And by the way, I don't like the hoops you make me jump through before I can ask this question, or the unhelpful replies that are all that is offered for the question about the Plug-in Check screen.

My kids were messing with my computer and must have pushed something and everything disappeared. I need to know how to put an address bar (back button, refresh, ect) back up into the top of my window. Part of the problem is that my computer screen is cracked and I can't see anything in my menu easily. A command that would restore the address bar would help. Thanks.

I need to apologize for an intemperate name-calling earlier this evening. Every time I loaded more than one tab FF crashed and because I am using an old version and was told that FF would eventually disable it I assumed that is what happened. Each time it crashed it sent a report. Once I added my poor comment. Turns out it was my modem acting up. I am using an old version because I use Google Autofill regularly. Newer versions do not support Autofill. (Or the other way around.) Every day I am bugged to upgrade. Sorry for assuming the problem was caused by FF.

finally mite update frm FF 3.6 to 14 for the html5 (on last update frm 3 to 5 google's services dint work). will history, bookmarks, site prefs etc be retained? active logins probably wont. plugin & extension compatibility not really important.

also, if i simply hit update and get it done, will that opera-like 'Firefox' menu show up or will i have to do a clean install to get that?

For whatever reason, Plugincontainer.exe is not starting up at all. Why is it not showing up? I'm pretty sure that my build of Firefox should have it, since it's been a feature for a good while. This is getting annoying because without it, my browser crashes far more often.

Any action with FF13 takes for ever.

I updated to FF13 and everything takes several minutes to do anything. Sometimes many minutes and I just give up. I revert back to FF 3.6 and everything works fine.

I have tried, unsuccessfully, to upgrade from 3.6.28 but have been unable to do so. A pop up shows up telling me that I should and offers a line to click on to go ahead and do it. I followed all the instructions and after dragging the Firefox logo to the applications box a window pops up saying there is a version already in the applications folder and do I want to replace it. I clicked on replace and thought I was good to go. When I clicked on the Firefox logo I get the original window telling me I need to update. I clicked on the "About this Firefox and find that I'm still running 3.6.28. HOW DO I UPGRADE? I'm very concerned about losing all my bookmarks so please help!

Have had to stick with FF3 as everytime I try to new updated version the ALPS touchpad scrolling function doesn't work on my Acer 5738Z. I have made sure drivers are all up to date and everything else is in order but no luck. Have tried many different methods posted on the forums but still no luck.

Now all of a sudden FF3 now keeps crashing every 10 minutes or so.

I do prefer FF but this inconvenience is getting way to much and am going to have to you IE for the time being until someone can tell me a solution. Below is just a few of the crash IDs Ive been having of late.
