• My homepage is set to Mozilla, but it automatically opens my g-mail instead of my homepage of mozilla.

  My home page is set to the Mozilla Firefox Start Page, but when I launch Firefox, I'm automatically redirected to: https://mail.google.com/mail/u/0/?shva=1#inbox, which brings me to my Gmail account instead of my home page. I tried to reset the default value, but nothing has changed. I even uninstalled and reinstalled Firefox, but that no longer works. I checked my computer for all suspicious programs, but I can't seem to find. What is a malware that I can't find? It was produced for about 3 weeks now and it's very frustrating. I don't want to open my e-mail address automatically. You can help me solve this problem. Thank you.

  You can check the target line in the shortcut to the Firefox desktop (right click: properties) to make sure that nothing is added after the path to the Firefox program.

  Your list of details of the system shows that you have a user.js file in the profile folder to initialize prefs each time you start Firefox.

  The user.js file is present than if you or another software has created this file and normally it wouldn't be here.
  You can check its contents with a text editor (right click: open with) If you do not create this file yourself.

  The user.js file is read whenever Firefox is started and initializes the preferences to the specified value in this file, so the preferences set via user.js can be changed temporarily for the current session.

  You can delete a possible user.js file and numbered prefs-# .js files and rename (or delete) the file prefs.js to reset all the prefs by default, including the prefs set via user.js and pref which is no longer supported in the current version of Firefox.

  You can use this button to go to the Firefox profile folder currently in use:

  • Help > troubleshooting information > profile directory: see file (Linux: open the directory;) Mac: View in the Finder)

• I prefer SEPARATE (for multiple open documents) instead of tedious proceedings hover over the icon and then choose the one I want.

  Notepad or WORD or EXCEL, Lotus SAMETIME, I prefer SEPARATE (for multiple open documents) instead of tedious proceedings hover over the icon and then choose the one I want.  I can't figure out how to change that, and it's a boring true change to XP. Does anyone know how to do this?

  Go to the Start menu button, right-click on it, select Properties, click the task bar .

  Click the drop-down list buttons Taskbar & select never combine.

  That's all.  You should now see an entry of the separate taskbar for each open file on your PC.

  When I opened iMovie automatically opens to the last played film instead of asking me what I want to do.  I then shut down the film before I was presented with the opportunity to create a new project.  How can I stop this waste of time boring?  I use the old iMovie HD 6.0.4 because I find that it is superior to the new versions.  IMac 27 "2.66 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo.

  This has always been a 'feature' of iMovie 6!

  The only solution I know is to move the project current iMovie to another folder, which is in documents, for example, where iMovie can't see it.

• by clicking on the http links in windows mail will open word instead of the browser

  How can I replace a block if no information bar?

  When I click on links HTTP in a Windows Mail message opens a Word document. Windows Mail help seems to indicate that the link is blocked because it may be phishing and that the solution is to click on the link and type unlock in the InfoBar. I don't see an information bar. It started recently, so I think that I have installed a phishing filter updated. Can I remove the offending filter or?

  IE9 is blocking the information bar if you want to see it, and then open the message in a separate window and it will appear again or uninstall IE9.  As for opening Word instead of IE, go to the control panel. Default programs | Associate a file type or Protocol with a program, press page down to the HTTP and HTTPS protocols, and set IE as default.
