When opened, firefox starts playing pacman sound fx and will not stop, I did not knowingly download anything nor do I want this effect on my web browser.

This happened

== Not sure, I had firefox open for several minutes, when I un-muted the sound I noticed it.

Google Translation (embedded into a website) was working a few days ago but now, error code is received. (Error: The server could not complete your request. Try again later. ) Only happens when using Firefox. No problems with IE. Is this a problem with Google Translate or with Firefox? This is not only happening on my computer but several other people's as well.

Firefox 3.6.3 does not save history, nor passwords. I have read the forum and checked my settings in Privacy (all ok), I restarted Firefox in Safe mode (it still does not remember history or passwords). Running on XP. I think these problems started when I upgraded to 3.6.3.

Today I opened Google.com and saw and heard Pacman. And the noise keeps on when I open another page or even close and reopen Firefox or restart my computer and Firefox

Starting this morning, when I start Firefox, the Pacman game music starts playing. It goes continuously, and I can't stop it. I saw a URL (that I didn't go to) that led to the Pacman file. Somehoe the browser went there and downloaded something. I dont have the URL anymore as I (stupidly) cleared my history.

Error message after ~1/3 of the way through video: the video you requested is being blocked by an ad blocker installed on your browser. I do not see how to fix this. I looked for any kind of ad blocker control in preferences and in tools but cannot find anything. Please help! ps This is new. I watch videos on cbs.com all the time and this just started happening.

I found out the other day that Firefox will no longer open pages that redirect to somewhere else. For example, I was trying to open phpMyAdmin through my hostgator account, and it just sort of "hung" there at the page where it said it was being redirected. I have since noticed it does it EVERY time a page needs to redirect to another page. If there is no link saying "click here if the page does not redirect" I just can't get it to work. I have had to resort to using IE for these sites!! I haven't a clue what's happened, as I haven't changed any settings at all.

I have another kind of problem with Firefox

Description

When I open Mozilla Firefox, there is a blue/white bar with the words "Downloading the latest applications" in it. A dotted circle keeps spinning. Nothing stops or disappears and there is no listing of what applications are being downloaded. How do I stop this?

This started this week. The only thing that I did differently before this start was to add a router to my modem and connect them to my computer and laptop.

Some "nasty" advertisers use a popup dialog that says "Press OK to Continue" or something along those lines. I know the OK button will take an action I do not want to allow, but the advertiser is exploiting something in Firefox to infinitely generate new dialogs whenever one is closed, until I press OK. During this, the Firefox browser will not allow me to close the offending tab or the offending browser window, so my only escape is Task Manager. After this happens I cannot restore my previous session because that session contains the hijacker.

I have included a URL that generated a popup that had this behavior, but it may or may not show up repeatedly, and it appears plenty of other places online as well.

Please take action so that an open dialog cannot prevent a tab or browser being closed.

WARNING: Following link in "URL of affected sites" may result in unpleasant browser behavior as described above.

Gmail will not load in Firefox browser. I can get it in IE. I have disabled add-ons, extensions, reset theme to default, renamed extensions.?? files, re-started in safe mode, and a few other options, but it still won't load. Get "The connection was interrupted The connection to www.google.com was interrupted while the page was loading." However, I can go to www.google.com, but can't get to the login page or gmail link. I can get to other links there.

I have bookmarked a lot of sites recently and its time to organize my bookmarks. I used to be able to click the bookmarks tab at the top of the Firefox window and select "organize bookmarks" - that gave me a list of all the bookmarks and bookmark folders and I could move the new bookmarks into existing folders, create new folders, and leave some one-of-a-kind bookmarks not in folders. Now it only shows a list of folders, plus an icon called "Unsorted Bookmarks" which I can't figure out how to open. How do I open it?

While in E bay, I buy an item, when I press "Commit to buy", Firefox crashes every time. Then does the report thing and takes me back to the 'commit to buy' page again .... several times it has bought a second item. I have to be careful to exit and restart Firefox. This does not happen with IE.

I have tried changing Keyword.url in about:config but the big search engine still shows up when i use keyword. keyword.url does have the correct link but bing still shows up. please advise
