After updating Firefox now works at 100% of CPU cycles, weighs on the Web page loads

• After updating Firefox, tabs removed among more than one year reappear at the start.

  I've recently updated to the Firefox version proposed by Comcast. I had already been running Firefox - 6.-the 'update' brought me back to Firefox 4.0.1. (I did this because a Comcast tech has blamed a problem with Comcast on Firefox.) Finally I found a tech that has identified the REAL cause of this problem that had absolutely nothing to do with Firefox).

  After the "update" in its version 4, old tabs that I had deleted a couple of years started reappearing at startup. I deleted bookmarks for these tabs and deforested history and downloads, Cookies and Cache. But the obsolete tabs continue to reappear when Firefox opens.

  You can try to trash or delete the entire folder Firefox to force Firefox to create a new default profile.

• the hyperlinks used to appear in red when the web page loads, now I have to hover to show them, it's before the upgrade.

  For example, before the upgrade, I used to connect to jud.ct.gov. Links hyperlinks to various publications and Web sites internal to jud.ct.gov appeared in red so that I could easily see and choose the one I wanted. Now, they appear white and I do not see them unless I have pass the mouse over the element. At this point, it turns red so I can see which link to click.

  Comments: enter config should be browser.anchor_color. Just right-click on it and reset.

  • Firefox 12.0.x: http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all.html

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

  Your bookmarks and other profile data stored in the Firefox profile folder and will not be affected by a relocation, but make sure that you do not select delete data of a personal nature if you uninstall Firefox.

  There are security software such as Avast and Kaspersky that intercepts secure connections and sends its own certificate.

  If you have Avast then try disabling the analysis of HTTPS in the Web Shield, Avast.

  • https://Forum.avast.com/index.php?topic=176073.0

  If you cannot inspect the certificate by "I understand the risks", then try this:

  Open the "Add Security Exception" this URL chrome by pasting into the address bar of Firefox and check the certificate:

  • chrome://pippki/content/exceptionDialog.XUL

  In the field of location of this window, type or paste the URL of the Web site.

  • retrieve the certificate via the button 'Get certificate '.
  • Click on the "view..." button. "to inspect the certificate in the certificate display

  You can check details such as the issuer and the certificate chain in the Details tab of the certificate display.
  Check which is the issuer of the certificate.
  If necessary, you can attach a screenshot that shows the display of the certificate.

• After updating Firefox - can't get into anything – get errors

  I received the notification that Firefox was slow, so I did a refresh. Now, I can't in my Yahoo email unless it tells me that there is an error. When I finally managed to get a photo that I sent to me not to appear. Then when I went to to connect to my work email address, which is a secure, network I could not there either. I wish I had not done a refresh now. The error is one that says that the web page is not secure.

  Do you use a suite of security that filters your web traffic, for example, Kaspersky, avast!, ESET, BitDefender? After a refresh, Firefox's confidence is more 'false' certificates presented by your security software (this is necessary in order to intercept and decrypt your secure connections) and must be set up to work with her again.

  Or as a quick fix, you can usually disable the scan SSL/HTTPS and only scan of unsecured connections.

• Update of Firefox, and now all of the web pages and icons are inflated. How do I put back it as it was?

  Update of Firefox, and now all of the web pages and icons are inflated. How do I put back it as it was?

  Hello

  Firefox on Windows is now after display, scaling options that can make the biggest text on screens at high resolution.
  You can adjust the resolution of your screen.
  To change it follow these steps:

  • Type of topic: config in the Firefox address bar and hit the Enter key.
  • If the warning that this might void your warranty , click I'll be careful, I promised.
  • Search for layout.css.devPixelsPerPx

  

  • Double-click layout.css.devPixelsPerPx to edit its value. The default value is - 1.0 in Firefox 22 and above. Change it to 1.0 to run as in previous versions of Firefox.

  If necessary, further adjust the value of 0.1 or 0.05. Values between 1.0 and around 0.5 to reduce the size of the elements. Use a value greater than 1.0 to increase the size. For example, a value of 1.25 will increase the font size of the 125% to account for the default DPI setting in Windows 8. Check the value that you enter. Definition of a value that is too small will take everything away and too high will explode things.

  If the web pages should always be adjusted so you can watch the extension Default FullZoom Level or NoSquint .

  To adjust the font size for the user interface, you can use the extension of theme font & size changer .

• A updated Windows caused inconsistent Web Page loading

  I have this problem have fought for about 7 months and feel now that this question may have some merit. On November of last year, I noticed that one of my records came to a point that a session on the internet would have on the same sequence of events on my ISP, different from search engines email account or another web browser outside of the Internet Explorer that I always used: web pages load normally for a period of shooting then the Green loading bar at the bottom of the page shows 50% completion & load entirely web page, then to the same bar of fine corresponding to 100%, but the web page is empty. At this point, I may be able to close the web page, but more often otherwise I have to use the Task Manager to end the session. Even after this point I couldn't access the internet unless the system has rebooted. I thought that not much in light of 6 years + of very intensive use, it was time to do a new install & really cut the number of programs installed and fragmented garbage.

  The drive was wiped cleaned before anything was started. A firewall & antivirus updated were in place before any connection to the internet. All XP critical and recommended updates loaded first thing and installed. Minimal programs have been installed. DSL result same slowness.

  I spent hours with my ISP support for any solution. My older router was suspected, so a newer version has been purchased. No change.

  Then, my wife made a comment that its XP disc that she uses only for the printer on my desktop still works very well. I now widely used and it is not a fake. Wipe the disc again and done the same installation of all windows, as before, but duplicate updates install it software she has: no change. The only difference with his, is that no Windows Update were conducted on it for some time, as he was very low on disk space.

  Thank you

  As it became very obvious that I was not to get more answers to my question, I found the solution through another forum by examining the response to slow down the loading of the web page. Log in Mode safe mode with networking privileges. Things will appear somewhat sluggish clicking around but that's ok. Begin to surf the internet. All my symptoms went away. In this case, Internet Explorer settings need to be reset & can be done using the Microsoft FIX - IT Site, charging to @ http://support.microsoft.com/kb/923737 . If it doesn't clear up the problem of IE and your computer is running slowly as well, this MS web page might be the solution: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/310353.

• Firefox does not open in full screen on the task bar and I have to go over it to see the web page.

  Firefox does not open in full screen on the task bar and I have to go over it to see the web page.

  Firefox window is sometimes "off screen" somehow. Often, you can force it to appear on the screen by right clicking on the thumbnail image just above the taskbar and choose expand. Does it work?

  A possible cause for this is that the file that stores the positions and sizes of window is corrupt. You can delete this file and Firefox will return to standard window resizing.

  #1 method: If you can get a zoomed window:

  Open the settings folder (AKA Firefox profile) current Firefox help

  • button "3-bar" menu > "?" button > troubleshooting information
  • (menu bar) Help > troubleshooting information
  • type or paste everything: in the address bar and press Enter

  In the first table of the page, click on the view file"" button. This should launch a new window that lists the various files and folders in Windows Explorer.

  Leave this window open, switch back to Firefox and output, either:

  • "3-bar" menu button > button "power".
  • (menu bar) File > Exit

  Pause while Firefox finishing its cleanup, then rename xulstore.json to something like xulstore.old. If you see a file named localstore.rdf, rename this to localstore.old.

  Launch Firefox back up again. Windows normally appear again?

  #2 method: If you can not get a Firefox window for all:

  Close Firefox by right clicking the icon in the taskbar > close all windows.

  Using the Run dialog box (windows key + R) or the start search bar menu type or paste the following and press Enter to drill down to the profiles folder:

  %APPDATA%\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles
  

  Here you can see a folder - in this case, double-click that - or more than one case - in this case, double-click on in what looks like the most recently updated.

  Scroll down and rename xulstore.json to something like xulstore.old. If you see a file named localstore.rdf, rename this to localstore.old.

  Launch Firefox back up again. Windows normally appear again?

  Then, to re - light bars, you can use one of the following methods to view the list of the toolbar, and then select the desired bars it:

  • Right click on a place empty on the tab bar (or the button '+')
  • Press the Alt key to activate the classic menu bar > view > toolbars
  • in customize mode > show/hide toolbars (see: Customize Firefox commands, buttons, and toolbars)

  To activate the menu bar, toolbar bookmarks or other bars, click it in the list.

• Cannot set the home page loading Firefox

  My homepage itself, has recently changed although I did not authorize this change. I want to make msn.com, but now it displays bing.com or Options page Virgin Firefox seen after clicking on the "Reset" button on the page.

  I tried to enter the home of the Options page section msn.com and also drag the msn.com tab to the home button on my browser. MSN load when I click on the button Home, but at the start, one of the other pages loads. Once again, I've done zero replaces myself my homepage settings. I would greatly appreciate all advice.

  Thanks in advance.

  Good news! By placing the cursor on the user.js file and take a screenshot of the location, I was able to find the file using my computer, then delete it. Since then, Firefox * seems * to load my homepage provided on each new startup. Therefore, I should be in good shape with regard to this issue.

  Thanks for all the help. Very much appreciated.
