Firefox Support Forum

I would like Firefox to simply quit when I shut down the machine. I don't much care whether it saves my context or not, I just don't want it to generate a prompt that delays the shut down. I saw the settings that are required for the prompt to appear, and I don't want to change them just to make the prompt not appear.

I just installed Mozilla Firefox and am going through a tutorial that states that one of the nice features is the + button in the tab bar. I don't have a plus button and cannot figure out how to make that happen. I can add a new tab, but it still doesn't give me the plus button, which I would like to have.

== I downloaded firefox

I'm using swfobject to display alternate html content on a Flash site. In FireFox only it loads the site's swf twice. It does not happen with any other browser. You can view the site I'm testing at http://www.turntwomedia.com/index-altContent.html

Not sure how often

== I was testing the site in all browsers.

Apparently the print order was pressed several times. Now there is a long list of print orders and the printer will not work.

I have Firefox 3.0.1. I would like to upgrade to 3.6, but if I try to upgrade to any version, I cannot open Firefox. It is not like the other "Will not start" problems, because in the Task Manager, firefox.exe pops up, then goes away instantly. I have tried using Safe Mode, doing a clean install by uninstalling Firefox and my profile, cleaning the registry, then using CCleaner, then trying to reinstall, but the problem persists. Sometimes firefox.exe doesn't even show up in the Task Manager. I also cannot use any version of IE(even if I wanted to), Safari or Chrome. They all have the same results. I suspect that it is not a problem with Firefox, but with my computer, but I don't what is wrong. Can anyone help me?

As of yesterday (5-11-10) my Mozilla Firefox home page of MSN does not provide me the "Money" link as in the past. However Internet Explorer does. I'm wondering what is wrong with Firefox?

I don't use the caret bousing and since I don't know what affect the F7 kay has on other programs I would like to remove that function from Firefox. Can that be done?
