Firefox Support Forum

Firefox has arbitrarily disabled IDMcc even though I have been using it multiple times a day for months with no problems. I wish to reinstall IDM and use it. If I can't I will stop using Firefox and go back to IE. I would prefer to stay with Firefox but I will not use a browser that won't let me use IDM which was working just fine.

== I reloaded Firefox I told IDM had been disabled

After doing a search, I will click on suggested websites. It will start to load, then will redirect me to another site that generally has nothing to do with the original search.

Getting annoyed with "Your Firefox Browser is out of date" notification that hijacks the browser page every time I open Firefox. If I wanted to update I would! I do not want to update. I want to remain on the version I have so HOW DO I STOP the annoying notification alert every time I open a browser window ...to which I have been selecting. "No thanks, I will risk it". I do not want this box popping up anymore. It seems like a bullying form of forcing something on someone.

Thanks

I have tried all of the suggestions given by FF in order to remove Bing from my computer but nothing seems to work. I would appreciate some advise. For instance when I go to add and remove programs I can't even find Bing listed. Looking forward to your suggestions. Thanks.

I have created a folder in my bookmark tab, and moved bookmarks into it. When I bookmark a site that I want to have in that folder, I have to create it, then manually move it into the folder since none of my "custom" folders appear when I create the bookmark.

I cannot find how to set Firefox 3.6.6 to ask what I want to happen to cookies when any site tries to give me one. Have I simply forgotten where this setting is?

A few weeks ago my computer crashed and I had to reinstall all the programs. In the new Firefox I downloaded, the Navigation Bar (not the Address Bar) is very long and I tried to resize it (using Customise Option) to the look I am used to but it does not let me. Is there a way around it?

When I run Firefox I find that the "plugin-container.exe *32" is a drain on resources for my computer. Is there a way to disable this? I understand that its purpose is to help if Firefox crashes but because my Firefox hardly ever crashes I just feel it's a drain on my system resources (11,820K of RAM).

== Firefox was updated to 3.6.6

Since the most recent Firefox update (3.6.6), I cannot access my personal blog because when I click to it, I get a redirect to b.scorecardresearch.com which proceeds to freeze. I also suspect that it is the culprit for causing op up windows in my editing software to hang. I have tried blocking the cookie. I have tried opting out at the particular website. I have run ad-aware and spybot as well as my Norton anti-virus software. The website is fine in IE and Google Chrome. I have found out today that others are also having the same difficulty accessing my blog. How do I remove this pesky critter?

Where do I find the Security Tab to uncheck "Block reported attack sites". I never got this message before and I have always visited Virginia Tech's website for sports (Hokiesports.com) and I know it is not an attack site. Is this a new feature? I want to be able to visit the website.
