After formatting and reinstalling firefox exception lists are already filled.

I've just formatted my laptop and reinstalled windows and Firefox. After importing my old favorites, I installed Adblock Plus and pulled up to my old block list. Then I updated Windows and then install small stuff like 7zip, Symantec,... and the next thing I know is that Firefox slowing down and when I checked, lists of the exception for pop ups, image loading and Add-ons have been completely full - and I didn't know everything of the first hundred of sites listed.
How can this be? I went only to pages like youtube, yahoo and google, and only after the installation of symantec...
Help is greatly appreciated!
Thanks in advance!

Some security software can be added to that list Spybot S & D is known to add a list of vaccination, but other security software can do the same.

    Given that your hardware has a unique identifier captured by the activation process, you should not consume additional licenses whenever you reinstall. Andre Da Costa http://adacosta.spaces.live.com http://www.activewin.com

  • I can't yet see flash players in firefox after uninstall and reinstall of firefox and flash several times. How can I fix this permanent?

    I can go in chrome without any problem and watch any video without any problem. the second I get into firefox, nothing does. I had this problem on and off for years. I really don't see why you can't solve the problem, if anyone can. I uninstalled and reinstalled firefox and flash player several times. nothing seems to work. I am really really tired of this same problem for years, I stay with firefox, because you are aware of privacy and are always more. I don't know what other details to tell keep you other than that just to be and it makes it very difficult to do anything on firefox, when I can't use something simple like the flash drive. as I said, if other browsers can remedy I see no reason why firefox can not year after year. I hope there is a solution to this problem because it basically stopped a lot of my work on the net that I will no longer use google or microsoft. Thank you

    If you use extensions (Firefox/tools > Modules > Extensions) which can block content (e.g., Adblock Plus, NoScript, Flash Block, Ghostery) then make sure that these extensions are not blocking content.

    Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/tools > Modules > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is the cause of the problem.

    • Put yourself in the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/tools > Modules > appearance
    • Do NOT click on the reset button on the startup window Mode safe
  • Firefox crashed on me, and even after diagnosis and reinstalling, still will not work. Help!

    In the Middle doing some research, Firefox crashed. When I tried to restart it, a page came which was labeled as Mozilla Firefox, but it quite resembled what I normally see. I have been unable to actually access the page because of the "Rainbow death wheel' and had to force quit. I tried to uninstall and reinstall Firefox and got the same result - a unfamiliar-looking page that could not be accessed and required a force quite.

    Here are the accident report:

  • I'm on Firefox 17.0.11, if I uninstall Firefox and reinstall Firefox 17.0.11, I always get my original addons and bookmarks back?

    I'm on Firefox 17.0.11, if I uninstall Firefox and reinstall Firefox 17.0.11, I always get my original addons and bookmarks back?

    IAM short of space on my hard drive, I prefer just to re - install Firefox 17.0.11
    on my external hard drive, I have more than 200 GB of free space.

    Do NOT remove the data personal when you uninstall your current version of Firefox, because all profile files will be deleted and you lose personal data such as bookmarks and passwords from other versions of Firefox profiles.

    Your bookmarks and other personal data are stored in the Firefox profile folder and will not be affected by a uninstall and (re) install, but make sure that 'delete personal data' is NOT selected when you uninstall Firefox.

    Note that there is a version of Firefox 24.1.1 ESR if you want to stay on the ESR update channel.

  • Formatting and reinstalling Windows without the recovery CD

    I don't have access to my recovery cd as I am currently overseas and I am trying to format and reinstall windows. What would be the best way to do this? The recovery CD is totally part of reinstalling windows?

    I don't want to just do the reinstall and find that I have no screen etc.

    Hello

    Well, if you have no recovery CD, you can install the Windows operating system from the original CD of Microsoft Windows. Then you can try to download all the required drivers will Toshiba from the Toshiba download page.
    http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/cgi-bin/ToshibaCSG/download_drivers_bios.jsp

    But beware: you must update the drivers in the correct order. The drivers are placed in the right order, and it is very important for the new facility.

  • No one knows what buttons to press so I can format and reinstall windows xp from scratch?

    Hi all.

    Hi all. No one knows what buttons to press so that I can format and reinstall windows xp from scratch on my lap top compaq pentium 4 from a CD-ROM.

    Thank you.

    Hello

    In your other thread, you said that your XP CD is damaged.

    The manufacturer normally gives you one way or the other to reinstall; not both.

    If you had a recovery partition, this is the information:

    http://h10025.www1.HP.com/ewfrf/wc/document?CC=au&LC=en&docName=bph07145#N296

    1. Turn on the computer.
    2. Just after the first screen display (the display of the logo), press the F10 key repeatedly until a recovery menu appears.
    3. etc.

    See you soon.

  • I have recived portable computer of the Government with windows pre installed 7professional but now I want to format and reinstal it I require the startup disk and product key (my OS is authentic)

    I have recived portable computer of the Government with windows pre installed 7professional but now I want to format and reinstal it I require the startup disk and product key (my OS is authentic)

    If it's a copy of volume license installed, you will need to contact your employer to find the product key and get the installation files.

    If it is preinstalled at the factory with Windows 7 Professional, then use the recovery partition to reinstall Windows 7.

    New computers coming often pre-installed with Windows 7 have what is called a recovery partition. This is used to reinstall an operating system in the case of a system failure. To access it, you need to start when you start your computer by pressing a function key. This can be either F1, F2, F9, F10, F11, F12 key DEL or tab. See the manual that came with your PC for instructions on how to reinstall Windows.

    This is how the recovery partition is accessible to most popular brands...

    For Dell, press CTRL + F11 directly after switching on the device

    For HP, press F11 directly after switching on the device

    For LG, press F11 directly after switching on the device

    For Toshiba, press and hold "0" BEFORE and during the power upward

    For Acer, press and hold ALT + F10, as soon as you see the logo

    For Asus, press F9, as soon as you see the Asus logo.

    For Samsung, press F4 to the power upward...

    For Fujitsu, press the F8 key directly after the power

    Advent, restart your computer. Then, press F10 repeatedly until the message "Starting system recovery"

    Sony VAIO, reboot and press "F8" or "F10" repeatedly until the screen "Advanced Boot Options".

  • After uninstalling and reinstalling 42.0 FF, I get BSOD 0x000000F4 error

    FF has been excruciatingly slow and constantly crashed. I tried to reset, but does not solve the problem, so I did a uninstall and reinstall. Now, I get the BSOD every day, stating that "a process or thread crucial to system operation has unexpectedly released or terminated" and noting that the problem is often caused by the problem with newly installed hardware or software. FF is the only new software that I installed it. I have not installed new hardware. The stop error is always the same: 0x000000F4. Thanks for your suggestions you may have.

    Thanks for the suggestion, Kyle. I uninstalled and reinstalled FireFox and did not get a BSOD. It only 24 hours since I've done this, but so far, everything is fine. Thanks again!

  • need to uninstall and reinstall firefox, google chrome will not allow him, tells me I'm going some page open and I did not

    need to uninstall and reinstall firefox, it tells me to close google chome windows I get thi message when I
    go to the Control Panel programs and features high firefox uninstrall
    I did the same process with google chrome

    Uninstall Firefox ask you to close Google Chrome? It's strange. I guess that you have closed all the browser windows when this happens.

    I should ask: why do you need to uninstall and reinstall Firefox? Usually, this does not resolve problems with Firefox. Maybe read this article: Firefox Refresh - reset the settings and Add-ons.

    If Microsoft said that he is not a retail license, you can not download from here.

    If it is refurbished there is no recovery partition.

    If it came with Vista and now Windows 7, Vista must be reinstalled and then upgraded to Windows 7.

  • I bought and downloaded a digital copy of Windows 8 and I had to format and reinstall my computer - no E-mail order or code of the product, only Paypal purchase information

    Hello

    I bought and installed Windows 8 as a digital downloadon November 13, I had to format and reinstall my computer in order to correct a hardware problem and now I can not re - download Windows 8.
    I don't have the original email from Microsoft with my product code I can't find my order number to complete the form at: http://www.mswos.com so that I can not retrieve my product code in order to perform an upgrade of windows 8.
    The only evidence of the purchase that I have is my paypal invoice that does not have a valid order number contained in the details of the Bill.
    This question makes me wish I had ordered a disc like this would have included a product code label. Any help or a number I can call to retrieve my order number (or maybe I'm filling out the form at http://www.mswos.com incorrectly) would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks in advance.
