can I uninstall internet explorer 8, after the installation of Foxfire
I just installed Foxfire. I love it and want to keep it as my browser permanate. My question is if I can remove Internet Explorer 8.
Thank you
Walter Spain
No. I am not sure that IE can be completely removed from Windows XP. I remember well, it is linked to the XP operating system. Remove IE8 in Control Panel > Add / Remove Programs will simply go back to the previous version of IE until you end up in IE6 (lots of security issues). If this is the case, it is better to keep IE8 on your system. If you need to make the Manual updates for Windows, you will need IE do.
You can change your default browser Firefox:
- See->http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/How+to+make+Firefox+the+default+browser

Can't print or scan images after the installation of the Mavericks on iMac
Has anyone installed upgrading Maverick and then tried to Scan. The scan works OK, you can see the scanned image, but when you save it, either as a JPEG image or a PDF file, it's just a number of lines. If you print it, just a page full of ink. Must be the same on my wifes iMac such Maverick.
I have exactly the same problem. Spoke with Apple and worked around the problem by using the screenshot on the Mac. They said that hp needs updated driver to resolve the problem.

We have about 1 800 workstations with Windows 7 (32-bit and 64-bit) running different versions of JRE Java 6 update via update 7 51 32. Most are on 6 45 update. We would like to standardize on update of Java 7 51 (32-bit) and get everyone updated to this version for security reasons.
For the last two weeks, we had trouble with our driver prior to installation. What we are seeing, it of that our procedure successfully closed all open Internet Explorer Windows and processes related to Java, uninstall all older versions of JRE Java and says then successfully installed of the update of Java 7 51. The Java Control Panel works. We can even take Internet Explorer to check the Java Version or Java Tester - what Version of Java are you running? and confirm that the Java applets on these sites load (although the latter only works after adding the site to the list of site exceptions); However, when the testers try to access our system Kronos Workforce Central 6.3.10, used by this system Java applets do not load.
We tried the following things, which none worked:
- Empty the Internet Explorer browser cache and cookies.
- Clear the local Java cache.
- Restart the computer.
- Reset Internet Explorer settings, including personal settings.
Go to the Panel control Java, ranging in the Security tab, uncheck "enable Java in the browser content", the only thing that works based on apply, press OK in the pop-up window, checking the box "Enable Java in the browser content", press OK, press OK in the pop-up window and then restart Internet Explorer. It is only after this point, all Java applets, including those used by Kronos Workforce Central 6.3.10, work.
What I need to know, is how I can automate the reset procedure from the box "Activate Java content in the browser" after installation, or I'm something wrong or missing a step in automatic installation that is originally for this?
We use Microsoft SCCM 2007 R3 to perform this upgrade, and everything is run on the client computer by using the SYSTEM account. First of all, the "javaclean.ps1" PowerShell script is run, with part of the process of command line change of the strategy of running script PowerShell for Bypass. This script handles the closure of Java-dependent applications and Java deals and uninstall older versions of Java.
javaclean.ps1:
#Find all Java products, excluding the automatic update that actually is uninstalled when the main installation is removed.
write-host "If you are looking for all versions of Java installed" - ForegroundColor yellow
[table] $javas = Get-WmiObject-query "select * from win32_Product where (name as" Java % ' or name like '% of Java (TM)' or "J2SE %") and <>the name «Java Auto Updater»»
If ($javas.count - gt 0)
{
write-host "Java is already installed" - ForegroundColor yellow
#Get all Java processes and kill them. If java is running and processes are not killed then this script will call a restart suddenly.
[table] $processes = Get-Process-name "Java * ' #-erroraction silentlycontinue
$processes += get-Process - name "iexplore" #-erroraction silentlycontinue
$processes += get-Process - name "firefox" #-erroraction silentlycontinue
$processes += get-Process - name 'chrome' #-erroraction silentlycontinue
$processes += get-Process - name "jqs" #-erroraction silentlycontinue
$processes += get-Process - Name "jusched" #-erroraction silentlycontinue
$processes += get-Process - Name 'jp2launcher' #-erroraction silentlycontinue
If ($processes. Count - gt 0)
{
foreach ($myprocess to $processes)
{
$myprocess.kill)
}
}
#Loop through the Java products installed.
{foreach ($java to $javas)
write-host "Uninstall" $java.name - ForegroundColor yellow.
$java. Uninstall()
}
}
Once this script is complete, SCCM calls a script VBS "install.vbs" to perform the installation of Java JRE 7 day 51.

Help on this issue would be much appreciated!
It turns out that it is actually a problem with Kronos Workforce Central. We had the parameter 'site.java.plugin.CLSID.familyVersion' as an application set to "clsid:CAFEEFAC-0016-0000-FFFF-ABCDEFFEDCBA", which is the CLSID Java Java 6. After update this value to "clsid:8AD9C840 - 044F-11 D 1-B3E9-00805F499D93" (the universal CLSID of Java), this problem does not occur when the automatic upgrade of Java.
We also have good Java 6 and 7 in our environment and did during our implementation of Kronos, so I don't know why we used the Java 6 CLSID in the first place.

Desktop using 'Dell Dimension 2400. Internet provider is Juno. When do my default browser from Firefox Internet Explorer always lights when I go to Juno.

Launch Firefox

I can't in internet explore unless I have restore my system before 14 Oct automatic updates - daily
Hey Juliette l.
1. What is the message error that you receive on the Internet Explore after having installed the updates?
There are many reasons why internet Explorer would not work after the installation of update Windows.
I suggest that you install the update again and check if the problem persists, try the procedure if the problem below.
Method 1
Check if Add-ons on Internet Explore are causing the error. I suggest you try opening Internet Explore mode without modules.
(a) click the Start button, click all programs, and click Accessories
(b) click System Tools, click Internet Explorer (No Add-ons).

How the modules of the browser affect my computer?
http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/how-do-browser-add-ons-affect-my-computer
Method 2
If the previous step fails then try to reset the internet settings explore by default and check.
For more information please visit the link below.
How to reset Internet Explorer settings
http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/923737
Important: Reset Internet explore its default configuration. This step will disable also any add-ons, plug-ins or toolbars that are installed. Although this solution is fast, it also means that, if you want to use one of these modules in the future, they must be reinstalled.
I hope this helps!

Original title: safe mode
Hello
I recently installed norton antivirus 2011 on my computer toshiba laptop, detected the various threats and dealt with, but he also always tried to deal with threats constantly through autoprotect. as a result of all of this that I could not open internet explore to download available updates even if I could send and receive e-mail with outlook express, I tried to uninstall norton, but was still unable to open ie, I re installed norton and still the same.
I also tried a restore of the system without success. Then, I read on a forum on the attempt at analysis in using msconfig and not F8 safe mode. This stoppped the laptop completely. now it shows just a black screen with options to start in normal mode or in safe mode, when you press F8, the following text is displayed on a black screen
Windows Advanced options
safe mode
safe mode with networking
line withcommand in sans-echec mode
Enable Boot logging
enable vga mode
last known good configuration
directory services restore mode
debug mode
disable the automatic restart in the event of system failure
Start windows normally
reset
return to the operating system choices menu.
When I select the option of automatic reboot disable a blue screen with the following error codes displayed
stop: 0xc0000007b (0xf8c66528, 0xc0000034, 0x00000000, 0x00000000)
is there any way back from that. ? I downloaded the bitdefender recovery system on my desktop on another pc and it has burned to a disc, but it will not work in computer laptop th!
