How do I disable auto-detect browser settings?

For some websites with sensitive content it is very annoying that it is possible in firefox to restore the previous sessions after firefox crashes.
The default-setting for this firefox-feature in about:config and then browser.sessionstore.resume_from_crash is true.
This can cause a security break when a user log into a website with sensitive content and then firefox crashes and the user leave the pc. If then an other user starts firefox again on this pc firefox will aks if he want to restore the previous sessions. When this other user click "restore the previous sessions" he will have the authorized session of this website with sensitive content of the first user!
=> So the question is if there is a possibility to override the firefox-setting "Restore previous session" on the server side.
How to get Firefox to follow an anchor fragment in XSLT stylesheet generated HTML

I have an XML file that is being transformed to HTML at load time by the browser via an XSLT stylesheet - something like this:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<?xml-stylesheet href="transform.xsl" title="example" type="text/xsl"/>
<foo>
<bar baz="1">Hello</bar>
<bar baz="2">my name is</bar>
<bar baz="3">Inigo Montoya</bar>
</foo>
The XML gets converted into HTML via the stylesheet, something like this:
<html>
<head/>
<body>
<div class="bar" id="1">Hello</div>
<div class="bar" id="2">my name is</div>
<div class="bar" id="3">Inigo Montoya</div>
</body>
</html>
The transform runs just fine, the HTML generates and is displayed, BUT: If I give the browser a url like:
file:///tmp/foo.xml#2
while the browser renders the file fine, it does NOT move the viewport to the selected div (assuming the generated HTML is larger than a screenfull, naturally). I've also tried adding <a name="2"/> and <a id="2"/> elements to the generated HTML as well, with no observed change.

I used browserspy(http://browserspy.dk/os.php) to see my OS detected via JavaScript (OS CPU detected via JavaScript:Windows NT 6.1; WOW66 ).
I don't need to change User Agent. I managed this with add-on. I used this add-on also to change User Agent for JavaScript : https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/user-agent-js-fixer/
It is working i checked on browserspy.dk
But i have problem with operating system. If i change my User Agent to Windows NT 6.2, there will be still Windows NT 6.1; WOW66 detected via JavaScript. The User Agent detected via Java Script will be the right one. So the problem is Operating System.
Can you help me with this one? Can i change it somehow?

This morning I noticed that on Firefox 17 if I open the Add-Ons tab to see my add-ons and extensions. All I get is a blank page. I also noticed that on the "About" page the "checking for updates" simply kept spinning and never finished.
I was sure I had Ad-Block installed, but when trying to install again it completed the download, but stalled at that point, waiting to ultimately finish.
I had to leave for work, so could not look at it further.

Our Intranet uses file:// links to show pictures from UNC paths. The pictures show in IE but not Firefox. I have tried file:///// links too.

We are using SharePoint with a web part from another vendor that is used to display people's pictures. The web part takes in the paths we provide as UNC paths (i.e. \\servername\folder\picture.jpg\) and then when we open the page the links are displayed as file://servername/folder/picture.jpg. It works fine in Internet Explorer.
In Firefox 10 ESR, we do not see any pictures at all. There is not even an X where the picture is supposed to be.
I have tried changing the path so that the link is showing up as file:///// instead of file:// but the pictures are still not being displayed.
I have tried setting user.js as described here but that doesn't seem to work either. http://kb.mozillazine.org/Links_to_local_pages_don%27t_work

I entered an admission in my computer, and when I closed the visit and syncronized the visit, the admission for my patient disappeared---forever!! I did this twice and then did the admission on my husband's PC. When admission was completed, I closed the visit and syncronized the visit. I was able to view the admission on my husband's PC, and my coworkers were able to view the admission on their computers. I, however, was NOT able to view the admission on my laptop. When I bring up the patient's name I see a chart with nothing in it. I also show another visit for that patient that is opened with nothing in it. On my husband's computer I have no additional opened visit. I can chart on admissions already in the computer with no problem. I MUST use my laptop because I am a hospice nurse and I am on the road all day. MUMMS can be entered offline and then syncronized later. I called the teacher for MUMMS and she said this is a technical issue and thought that you might be able to connect into my computer to see what is going on. I do not want to post this question, it is too complicated and important. Thank you, Vicki Asaro

Yeah, I've recently updated from Firefox version like 2.something to 10.0.2. My god, why don't I learn? Why don't I just follow what I know is true rather than listening to everystupidbody else, who are always wrong? You see, Mozilla. THIS is why I keep sometimes a DECADE-old version of software and update ONLY with the greatest of caution, and often not even then. The newer versions ALWAYS and I mean EVERY DAMN TIME work WORSE. All the bells and whistles and ‘new and improved’ (read: retarded) ‘innovations’ (read: flaws) bring the whole thing crashing down. Why the hell do developers constantly think they have to fidget with something until they break it? Better question: Why do software developers ALWAYS refuse to take responsibility for a terrible design flaw and just undo it already - instead blaming everyone else? God, I am SO TIRED of the questions: “What firewalls are you running” (Answer: NONE) and “Did you update it?” (Answer: you can’t be frickin serious at this point - you’re just screwing with me, aren’t you?). While I’m getting such brilliant troubleshooting suggestions, why don’t I just turn it off and on again? Can you come and set the time on my computer for me too? I don’t understand these confounded smoke-containing magic boxes yet. Firefox used to be like the perfect browser. I loved it when I first discovered it. I couldn't believe how neat it was. The features were so practical and useful! They MADE SENSE. I actually had trouble believing what I was experiencing, since software is so regularly programmed by, what appear to be, escaped mental patients who hate Humanity. Now it hogs resources like they're going out of style and that godawful plugin container, I believe, is attempting to set a new high score daily on how many times it can crash. Oh and I love the 'solution' on your help. "Simply reload the page to restart the plugin and show the video (or game, animation, etc.) again." HAHAHAHA. You mean AFTER the three minutes it's frozen my computer up? You mean during which, I can't even bring up the FRICKIN TASK MANAGER to FORCE the process to end??!?! I mean, I’ll admit, I am using XP here, but I’m sure not everyone having this problem is. So basically, my question is: Mozilla, you gonna fix this problem, or do I basically have to shitcan Firefox (and by extension all of your products and your reputation with me and everyone I know) and download a different browser? I mean, I like Chrome less, but I don’t hear about as many problems with it. Oh, I also love how Firefox version 3.something would CUT OFF MY INTERNET FOR SEVERAL MINUTES!! Even with other browsers. I don’t even remember how it managed that, but I was impressed, I gotta say. But, listen, Edited by a moderator due to language. See the Rules & Guidelines .

Hi,
When I zoom (using Ctrl and +/- or the mouse) while being on Facebook, it does increase the font size, but the white margins on the left and right side of the page seem locked, therefore the text overlaps when zooming. In other words, it is as if the text is trapped in an invisible box that will not expand when zooming.
This is happening only when on Facebook, other websites' sizes expand normally when zooming.
Anyone has had this issue?
Thank you.
