Someone asked if I could help with this problem they are having with Firefox with Windows XP.

There are a couple things going on that may or may not be related.

Firstly the Yahoo toolbar was installed in Firefox. I assume this was bundled with another program or update.

Also, if you try to print a webpage from within Firefox you are prompted to save the file first. I tried printing a page from Firefox on my computer (Firefox 30 Mozilla Firefox for Linux Mint - 1.0) and was not prompted to save the file first.

I'm assuming that this issue is related to the Yahoo toolbar.

Any ideas on how to fix this?

Hi muttleytm, The official download is not bundled with the toolbar. https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/new/

Reset the printing settings/preferences with this :Fix printing problems in Firefox ]

And you can try to disable the toolbar temporarily or try safe mode if there are other add ons installed: Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot Mode
