Bing is loading before my home page. How can I get rid of Bing?
Just today, Bing started to load when I started FireFox before my home page. I looked around Bing on my computer and can't find it. What I did today to ask you... Well I load two programs... which I have since deleted. Still stuck with Bing. I have checked the Add-ons and extensions, looked for something new in the list of programs on the control panel...
I'm stuck here people... Help!... Please, I beg you.
The same Junk page appear when you open a new window (Ctrl + n) or click on the Home icon or press Alt + start of the keyboard?
If so:
- Verify that your home page settings has changed. These articles describe the steps to do this:
- If your home page setting is correct, one of your extensions may be overriding your setting. Open the page modules using either:
- CTRL + SHIFT + a
- "3-bar" menu button (or tools) > Add-ons
In the left column, click Extensions. Then, when in doubt, turn off, or if evil obvoiusly, remove. Often, a link will appear above at least an extension disabled to restart Firefox. You can complete your work on the tab and click one of the links in the last step.
If not:
If the problem only occurs when you use your Firefox shortcut icon /, it could be hacked. Right click > properties > Shortcut tab. The 'target' for 32-bit Windows 7 should be it (no more, no less):
"C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe"
If anything else follows, try to remove it.

Does not he back on Bing and clicking ok. I'm a little frustrated by that. How can I get rid of Yahoo to come as my home page when I have asked yet for her?
Thank you for your time and your consideration.
Sincerely,
cbrsarahChange the home page when you check only in "Options > general > Startup" or is it a problem with the page that opens when you launch Firefox?
For the latter, you can check the field target in the Firefox desktop shortcut.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

How can I get rid of all that have hijacked my homepage in Firefox 12 and replaced by a login page "Bank of America"? I have reset my home page in Options, but it does not help. I suspect that there is an entry of thugs in my Windows Vista registry. I tried to get rid of it with several antivirus programs, including MS Security Essentials, Avast, Spyware Doctor and Malwarebytes, but none removed the offending attacker. Help would be appreciated.

If you are experiencing network connectivity problems in Internet Explorer, the first thing to do is to make sure that all cables are connected. Then open Network Diagnostics by right-clicking the network icon in the notification area, and then click diagnose and repair (if you use Windows Vista) or solve problems (if you use Windows 7).
If the problem persists, see the following articles:
