can't get out of a Web site

Site wont close, 'Are you sure you want to exit this page' appears. I click Yes and it does not.

This is a new type of fraud, the site is designed to ask this question constantly until you give up.

Most users eventually kill the browser in Windows Task Manager. At this point, if you restart normally, Firefox will try to load your previous tabs and windows, bring back the problem. It's frustrating.

I heard of two workarounds for breaking the cycle:

  1. Disable JavaScript or
  2. Change the behavior after the accident to present a list of tabs instead of automatically load all

Disable JavaScript

(1) in the new tab, type or paste Subject: config in the address bar and press ENTER. Click on the button promising to be careful.

(2) in the search above the list box, type or paste java and make a pause so that the list is filtered

(3) double-click the preference javascript.enabled from true to false.

This may or may not affect the already open tab, but when you kill Firefox and restart, the scripts that prevent you to close this tab may not be able to run. After closing, you can return to: config and turn JavaScript turn it back on.

Change the start setting after an accident

(A) in the new tab, type or paste Subject: config in the address bar and press ENTER. Click on the button promising to be careful.

(B) in the search above the list box, type or paste sess and make a pause so that the list is filtered

(C) double-click the preference browser.sessionstore.max_resumed_crashes and enter 0 (that's a zero) and click OK.

In addition, please see this thread for more information and a more long-term solution:

    Hi George,.

    The site to which you refer does seem to be a template that you can get your hands on, however, I suggest that you contact the owner through their contact us page and see what can be done.

  • I can't get to a specific Web site - Linksys E3000

    Hello

    I have a Linksys E3000 and everything works fine... until last week.  A Web site, I go all the time has stopped working.  The site is Martini in the morning, www.martiniinthemorning.com.  This is a great internet radio station.  I listen to the station via other resources, but I can't go to the Web site that has a lot of features that I use.

    The details are that of any one of the computers connected to our network, I can't access the site.  When I plug a computer directly into the modem from Comcast, I can access the site.  I changed nothing that I am aware and everything worked until the Monday of last week.

    I thought it wasn't what actually on the router, but a TRACERT shows that I am.  I have a desktop running Vista, 2 laptops running XP Pro, an iPad, and none of them can connect to this site.  My iPhone cannot connect when it is on the network, but when it is 3G, it can.

    I know can someone ask me to join the TRACERT list, so here they are.  I appreciate any suggestions.

    Kind regards

    I mistyped the MTU size. Change the size of the MTU to 1365. Cycle the router and see if it works.

    You have already updated the firmware of the router. After upgrading the firmware on the router, it is recommended that you must reset the router and reconfigure the router. Press and hold the reset button on the router for 30 seconds. Release the reset button and wait 10 seconds. power cycle the router and reconfigure the router. See if it works.

  • My iMac opens on the purchased applications and I can't get out

    MY iMac has opened on my purchased apps page and I can't get out, there is not even an icon I can close with, help please

    Hello, Debraspace!

    Looks like you have a few problems out out of the section of the App Store on your Mac purchase. I know that this is not a fun experience when the software does not work as expected, but not to worry, we can help you get this issue with the App Store sorted.

    The easiest and fastest, way to address problems with the gel on your Mac applications should start by forcing this app to close, and then reopen. To force the App Store to close, follow these steps:

    To close an application normally, choose leave in the application menu in the menu bar, or press command-Q. If an application does not respond, you can force it to close it using the Force to leave:

    1. Choose force quit from the Apple menu, or press Command-Option-Esc.
      This is to press Ctrl-Alt-Delete on a PC.
    2. Select the application does not respond within the window to leave, then click on force quit.

    Force a nearby application on your Mac.

    If the App Store always gives you problems after the reopening, force quit the application again. Hold down the SHIFT key while you open the App Store once more. Now shift while opening an application on your Mac temporarily that will prevent the app to reopen its documents and windows. If the problem persists for now, the best next step would simply restart your Mac. To do this, select the  in the upper left corner of your screen, then select "restart."

    Thank you for using communities of Apple Support.

    Take care!

  • How can I limit the number of Web sites on the new tab page?

    Is there a setting where I can limit the number of thumbnails / Web sites that appear on the new tab page? When I opened a new tab - I don't want to see tons of sites I have visited - but also, I don't want to delete them all. For example - there is a setting where the new tab page displays the last ten sites I've visited - with all my pinned sites?

    There are two settings 'hidden' for this 'grid '.

    Browser.newtabpage.Columns

    and

    Browser.newtabpage.Rows

    Type of topic: config in the URL bar and press ENTER.

    So put . browser.newtabpage in the top search bar.

    Each of these preferences in the lower panel right-click and select Edit. Then change the value default of 3 for each of these preferences to what you prefer, for "pinned" both sites all browsing history you want to appear in the 'grid '.
