I tried to fix a problem with 'verification' icon(s) in surf sites not loading all the way, so I searched & found a place to click 'run as administrator'...Clicked it, and now, every time I start FoxFire, I have to click 'yes' on 'do you want program to be allowed to make changes' before I can actually get into FoxFire. Where do I go to unclick this?

Check that Firefox isn't set to run as Administrator.

Right-click the Firefox desktop shortcut and choose "Properties".

Make sure that all items are deselected in the "Compatibility" tab of the Properties window.

  • Privilege Level: "Run this program as Administrator" should not be selected
  • "Run this program in compatibility mode for:" should not be selected

Also check the Properties of the firefox.exe program in the Firefox program folder (C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\).
