i used to use hola to watch big brother australia, canada and britan. no i cannot find it in my computer, i have microsoft xp i did have it tuned up a year or so ago. where is it? pam

I'm using windows 7 on my hp laptop. When I try updating i get a message saying I need to have at least windows XP. Is there something else blocking my update? I've tried both updating an downloading the latest version. My current firefox is 13.0.1

I have tried twice to upgrade my firefox to the most current (as of 7/18/10). When I did that I was unable to get anywhere on the internet. The message said the proxy settings from my server would not allow it and to make changes. I am using a home computer with Windows 2000. It hooks straight up to the DSL, there is no Server in my house. I am not too computer savvy but tried using the tools info but that just assumes I already know about proxies, servers, etc. I was able to delete the new version and load an older one stored on my computer and have no problems with getting on the net. What is the fix that I can do? What steps do I take. I am not going to hire a guy to do what should be a simple task.

I have just downloaded UK version from http://www.mozilla-europe.org/en/firefox/ . My homepage shows Japanese text only - I am currently in Japan so I assume Firefox shows Japanese by default - but I want English. How to make it default to English? Homepage address is http://www.google.co.jp/firefox?client=firefox-a&rls=org.mozilla:en-GB:official

This happened

Every time Firefox opened

== From installation

Latest FF and XP Pro. 2.4 Ghz Celeron, 1 gig RAM. FF will work for a while, then it will stop loading pages and say "Stopped" in the lower left corner of screen. Sometimes I can refresh and the page will load, but 95 out of 100 times I can keep refreshing and it will say "Stopped". Or, the page will partially load and then quit and say "Stopped". I have disabled IPv6 and DNS Prefetching and it is still doing it. IE is doing about the same thing. VERY frustrated. My last PC started doing this and I finally upgraded to a newer one and it was fine for a couple months, but started doing the same recently. Arghhh ... Thanks!

How can b/w wasting video streaming adds be blocked (running 3.5.9 on Win2K)?

Thanks

== General with sites that have video adds (not sure if it's all)

In the upper left hand corner is the word File; when I click on it and instead of opening my files it goes back to the screen saver where I have to click Mozilla to start all over again. This is a recent problem.

I hope this is the correct place to post this question.. I have a word press website that has been showing just fine for quite some time.

A few days ago, I noticed that the top right header was missing as well as a Clickbank box on the right column in my FireFox browser view.

I looked at a few other sites (not mine, but same basic format and template had been used) and I saw them with the same parts missing also. In IE, however the views were fine.

I checked on www.browsershots.com to see if it was a browser or a computer issue. The views are fine on that site. It appears the issue is in my settings somehow - but I have no idea what happened or how to change them. I updated Firefox to the latest edition (today 9/30) but there was no change in view.

Thanks for any help or direction you can provide.

Whenever someone sends me an attachment and I save it, Firefox truncates the file name if the file name contains blank spaces. I am running 3.6.12 under Windows 2000 SP4 right now. But this behavior has persisted for a long time, with earlier versions of Firefox and under Windows XP. Unfortunately, I cannot control the names of attachments people send me. As an example, if someone sends me a file named "file name.doc" (without quotes, of course), Firefox either displays it (via Micro$oft Word) or saves it as "file.doc". If I receive "filename.doc", that's how it gets saved.

My current version of Firefox has become corrupt. When I try to download a new version with Internet Explorer or my current version of firefox it goes to 53% unpacked and then it comes up with file corrupt. I have had the same issue before and have solved it by using a linux CD to download a windows version and it unpacks and installs great. I now cannot find a place where I can specify which version I want and it insists on using the download for Linux which is useless for me.

Mozilla upgraded to 3.6 and now when it launches it will only launch to the the welcome page thanking me for upgrading. I didn't ask it to upgrade it did it automatically. I go in and set my home page and it will not keep it. I relaunch and it comes up again to the welcome page.

What do I do to fix this?

The top left of previous Firefox versions had the left arrow key to go back to the previous web page and a button that would list all the previous web pages so that I could select, say, the 5th previous page. I can't find this button on Firefox 4. Is there a way to do this?

I need to set up the browser for people who don't know anything about computers other then you click this and things happen. I have the browsers set to automatically update, and every time it does, I get a help desk call to their station with "The browser just did something strange."

Get tired of that, I only want to be bothered with real help calls you know.
