Firefox Support Forum

I have posted this question and it was removed from the forum.

When I remove the Firefox 40 profile, sha512 84228c5e70b0ca4b3a8444007691a06cac1ecb6d81995d11a225e6e29dac6799267ebfe60488d0934e32567599c6a4ef0f849dfddbbfd3abdf0b0282599f10c3

information  is still maintained. As an example In Canada ther is a coffee shop called tim hortons and when I log into the free Wifi after removing Firefox it still displays my log on name.

Why is their no uninstall application for Firefox?

I not keep down menus open long enough to select favorites, get to options or to print etc. The menu and the favorites open but won't let me scroll down to select. They close before I click on anything. In Favorites I have various folder but can not get them to click on the site I want because the drop down disappears. The same thing happens with the favorites menu bar list that extend beyond the the bar at the top of the browser.

Every time I go to open a new page using Firefox browser it automatically opens to a yahoo page, every time I reset search engine to Google it resets to Yahoo. Is Yahoo now just a slimy virus company?

For two weeks now Firefox has been locking my computer. NOT on start but maybe 5 to 10 minutes after. I've followed the above troubleshooting/corrective actions and still have the problem. The computer does NOT lock up using Google Chrome. I prefer using Firefox, however. I have a Dell Inspiron 1545 laptop, using Windows Vista 64 bit I am going to try creating a new profile and see if that works. If it doesn't, what would I need to do? Well it didn't. Any other suggestions. OR am I just going to have to us Google Chrome?

When I download a file it shows up in my download folder as "document.pdf". If I have more than one, the is a number after document. I then have to open each one to see what it is. Windows 10 64-bit

I want to watch Netflix and refuse to use a different Brwoser than Firefox. So Here's the problem: After correctly uninstalling silverlight and reinstalling it again, Netflix keeps giving me the notification that silverlight needs to be installed, although it is. I have uninstalled Firefox clean and installed it again. I went in the internet up and down and did everything, like the microsoft fixing tool, I checked if everything is up to date, I literally did everything! When I keep browsing for solution, I see that on some websites it advices me to check my addons -> Plugins and select silverlight. Now, I do remember seeing Silverlight there plenty times, but it isn't there anymore at all, it's completely missing! Please help me!

Older versions of Mozilla Firefox allowed for Internet Download Manager add-on and I used it frequently, but with the latest update I can no longer use it. When will this be remedied?

Thanks!

I was in the middle of some downloads from the Internet and all of a sudden I got some Russian looking boxes that popped in and it basically looks like I loaded a Russian program called Yandex. It appears to be a browser. I got rid of everything that was visible in my programs with uninstall commands. However, when I am in Firefox and want to add a new tab, it automatically opens this Yandex browser. It doesn't appear to be doing anything bad to my system, but i still want to get rid of it. I've deleted cookies and everything else i can think of. The only evidence that tells me that it's still in my computer is a search that reveals it's a shortcut to the browser. But why it activates when I try to open a new tab in Firefox, and why i can't get rid of it is a mystery.

I hope something can help me, because I don’t’ know what to do.

I check my hotmail account with Firefox, never had any trouble. But, after UI changed with hotmail account a month or two back, I’ve been having trouble signing it with Firefox, sometimes it worked and sometimes it didn’t. During this time, sometimes it would let me in and sometimes it won’t let me check at all.

I just keep getting this error: "Something went wrong and we can't sign you in right now. Please try again later."

• BTW: Server status for hotmail is always 'green, no problems detected' when I get this error, so that makes me more confused on what's going on.*

That’s in Firefox, I then tried Firefox in safe mode (add-ons disabled) still same error.

I then tried restarting my PC, clearing catch/cookies, nothing seamed to matter and I have latest version of Firefox.

But, oddly (or not) when I try to sign in with IE, it logs me in just fine.

• I also tried Chrome, I can log into my hotmail account just fine also.*

Anyone else having trouble with there hotmail account + Firefox?

I haven’t added/removed any programs for a while, just updated flash player/adobe/etc, you know, the usual stuff.

All screenshots I took are attached, details of when are in file name.

• add images feature on creating page, is not working for me, had to do this way, sorry*

I'm using latest version of Firefox v40.03 on my Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit OS, no other sites I have this trouble, can someone please help me?

I did send a question to the tech people at Microsoft, but only got 3 replies from them: 1 - ‘Thank you for contacting us', 2 - ‘Can you install/run this program FiddlerCap and send us the results?’ 3 - ‘We are going to send you over to this other department instead, you’ll hear from them soon…'

That was ~5 days ago. Nothing so far from them.

• I don’t’ know what FiddlerCap was, I think it’s something to test the https or something, but got these odd errors when running it*

I really love Firefox have been a fan since v3 (I think, long ago), if anyone has any idea please tell me, if you need any info or something , ask and I will get it!

I don’t know if it’s related but I also got once or twice, an odd secure connection error, but I only got it a few times, so I don’t know if it’s related to this or not.

Error I got: “…Secure Connection Failed

An error occurred during a connection to sc.imp.live.com. Cannot communicate securely with peer: no common encryption algorithm(s). (Error code: ssl_error_no_cypher_overlap)

The page you are trying to view cannot be shown because the authenticity of the received data could not be verified. Please contact the website owners to inform them of this problem…”

I tried changing the line “security.tls.version.fallback-limit” to 1 (originally was 3) instead, but restart PC/clear cookies, restart Firefox, nothing, no error, but still no hotmail access with Firefox.

I have windows 7. A couple of days ago i went to play youtube videos and they all are shaking from left to right and going at different speeds(very herky-jerky). This happens ONLY with youtube(HTML5) videos. When i play other videos(non-HTML5), they play fine. Also, the sound on the youtube videos are fine, only they don't match the mouth(s) of the people talking. The mouths are moving faster. I've checked all of my plug-ins and everything is up to date. My firefox browser is also the latest version. I ran a malwarebytes scan and it came up with nothing. All of the settings on the youtube videos are also where they should be. This has been going on for about 5 days. Can anyone help me?

I was using the Hola! Unblocker forever for sites like Netflix, MTV, ABC, NBC, Hulu, basically any American network that doesn't stream its content to Canada and it was great. Now suddenly Hola! is gone and everytime I try and install, Firefox won't let me.
