These two websites open on re-boot, or when I'm idle on firefox.

How do I fix this issue?

My virgin e-mail only shows on half a page and I want to get rid of space aboove so it will show more. How can I do this. Found one possible way by using Adblock plus? Can you advise what steps I need to do to help solve issue?

I'm not able to pick an item from a 'dropdown' list of choices. The list flashes on and off so quickly that it doesn't pause long enough to make a selection or it doesn't show the dropdown list at all. This was not an issue for me before FF 19.

I'm running Windows 8.

Hi, I have just brought a new laptop running windows 8 and have installed Firefox. My old laptop was running XP and I didn't have a problem running Firefox on it. I am trying to install Kindle for PC on my new laptop but I keep getting the message "this link needs to be opened with an application". I've never seen this message before on any web browser that I have used. I have "googled" the question and some suggestions are: > reloading Firefox-no point I've just loaded it > downloading through Internet Explorer-which I don't want to do as I want Firefox my browser of choice > Some talk of changing profiles-which I haven't a clue about.

Any help in plain and simple English and assuming I have no prior knowledge (I'm a car driver rather than a mechanic) will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance

I was able to access this website prior to 2 weeks ago. I can access this website on other computers without issues, and I can also access all other websites on this computer.

The following is what is listed in the navigation bar when I get the error message.

http://iphantom.com/wisd/restricted.html?fn=Default&FP=l&ip=10.201.5157&ibip=66.206.97.9&ldu=l&re=0&bu=wps.prenhall.com

I noticed it says wisd/restricted, but I can log on to this website using my wisd computer without issue, and I get the same error message at my home/other locations. So I know that it is not restricted. I have used all the other suggestions "no proxy", shut down firewalls, but nothing has worked.

Any help with this matter will be greatly appreciated.

Thank you,

Cody

I got the visualbee tool bar from downloading slender onto my computer and now my homepage is http://www.searchnu.com/406 I have tried to drag the google icon to the homepage button but that has not worked. PLEASE HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I keep clicking no thanks and every time I start Firefox it pops up again. It is starting to irritate me enough that I will uninstall Firefox if I can't get it to stop - Why have a no thanks button if you are going to constantly irritate people by asking every time you open the program

I have a program named "Häradskartan" and first i have to install a plug "DjVu" ver. 4.1 from Lizardtech. And Firefox dos not run with it. Its a blank space. How to do. Stig Göransson

Problem: There is 1 website which I had downloaded a pdf from in the past, now this download window continues to popup every couple minutes with a window for me to download again. When this download windows opens I have to click "cancel" repeatedly to get it to close.

I use to have this issue about a year ago, but I found the problem with a program and uninstalled it. But I am not finding anything like that this time.

Here are the crash reports http://crash-stats.mozilla.com/report/index/bp-48b4dcc8-8154-4101-808a-cd23e2130327 http://crash-stats.mozilla.com/report/index/bp-11e5c45f-90b8-43d9-8d10-9a9c5213032 http://crash-stats.mozilla.com/report/index/bp-6b2c81b9-d7a2-461c-bb77-9eb0f2130327

After I open Firefox and conduct a search for information, I click on a website which comes up but then the browser hangs, mouse functions cease to work and I cannot back up. Onlyu wat out is to use the Task Mgr. and close Firefox entirely. Any ideas?

Firefox Aurora 21.0a2 running on Windows 8 Pro x64.

Extensions & Addons installed: Adblock Edge 2.0.3 App Button Remove 1.0 Cleanest Addon Manager 7.0 Greasemonkey 1.8

Greasemonkey script installed: Youtube Center 1.31.3

Problem: Whenever I watch Youtube videos there is a chance that the videos will be cut short for seemingly no reason. I originally thought that the fault was with the addon Tweak Network which I removed. After doing some testing I believed this to have solved the problem but alas, it still remains although not to the same degree as before. I've tried to disable each addon one after another and none seems to solve the problem. FWIW my internet has been acting dodgy as of late but I haven't really lost the connection or experienced anything wrong except 50% slower speed than usual.

Hi guys,

I have enabled directwrite for my Firefox however I realised that the fonts that it is showing is different from those in IE10.

Is this due to a setting in Firefox? Is it possible to achieve the kind of directwrite rendering that IE10 is providing?

I know this is weird but I do like the blurry fonts in IE10.

Heres a screenshot comparison: http://i.imgur.com/L5Of59z.png

When is Firefox metro going to come to 32 bit windows 8 and can you improve flash and html 5 performance it cant play 1080p videos smoothly I love Firefox but I'm using IE 10 for browsing and video, then Firefox for developing but want to use it for everything!

Firefox has changed my eBay page. It no longer offers me a sold button. When I go in with IE or chrome the sold button is still there. How do I get it back on Firefox? I prefer Firefox because of the security and really do not want to use the others, but I need that button. Help, please! Thank you for your time, I really hope you have a fix for this! I thought it was an eBay thing but their help desk and several others I have spoken to still have the sold button. eBay told me to try using IE and there it was. So I went in with chrome and it was there. I uninstalled Firefox and reinstalled and went back in and the button is missing. Then I tried re-setting Firefox to the default and went back in and it still is not there. I had been using Firefox since early Feb. and just last night discovered the sold button is gone. I use it often in research, several times a day!
