Cannot resize the window as we have after the new update for Firefox

This morning, Firefox installed an automatic update, and after that, I can't resize the window to a smaller proportion. First of all, let me explain why I do this.

We have a local Web page to work where we can keep track of some of the statistics, and it is the only area that I need to post. This area I used to reduce the FF window, move until it was in my opinion and freeze it above all other windows (custom AHK script).

The problem now is that FF resize to the size, it stops at a certain minimum width. Height is no problem, I can resize the height until he is "gone", but the width to a static limit stops.

Example: Earlier I was able to resize to 500px width, but now it stops at 700px width and will not go lower. Earlier, this could go, like, 10-20px width.

A bug, or is there a reason for this?

It's because of Bug 897160, https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=897160.

  • Windows XP svchost.exe problems. Cannot find the latest updates for windows xp.

    Hello, this is my first time on the Microsoft Community page.

    I have a very strange problem with automatic updates svchost.exe and windows. I know that automatic update of windows, has been known to cause problems on XP and there is thus CPU utilization of memory leaks. Last night, I tried to install the latest windows XP updates, with automatic tool. The tool hanged during the process. Not sure why exactly. I never had a problem with it. I've been running Xp SP 3 for more than five years. In any case, I rebooted my system and checked to see if the updates actually treatment. They do not have. Then I went to the windowsupdate.microsoft site. I was trying to these updates. The scan never completed, he just constantly checked, for about 45 minutes. I decided to do some research. I found the C:\Windows\SoftwareDistribution folder "fix" online. He kicked, I renamed the file. And then disabled auto updates and restarted my computer. After windows starts, I re-activated automatic updates and waited. Nothing happened, so I did some research more. I noticed that svchost.exe uses about 25% the use of the processor. Normally my treated systemidle is 99%. I used Process explore and isolated the wuauclt.exe under the svchost.exe file. When I disable automatic updates executable, it is up to a full 99%.

    I'm not sure why it uses 25%, when I look at the actual use of the memory for the wuauclt.exe, it is only using about 17 k of memory. Which is quite low. I have not turned on microsoft update, starting in the configurations of parameters at windowsupdate. I know that in the past, that has been a problem and swallowed up system resources.

    Any advice would be helpful. Thank you in advance.

    There are a lot of threads on this forum - and many others - this problem - just try to do a Google search for UPDATES of XP SVCHOST - hits now more than 8 million.

    But to save you the trouble of tracking down the fix OK here is the short version

    1. disable automatic updates using Control Panel icon

    2. restart the computer - SVCHOST is now not going crazy

    3. check which version of Internet Explorer you have installed IE8, IE7 or IE6

    4. download and install - the links below - the good update for Internet Explorer.

    Assuming you have Windows XP 32 bits here are the direct download links:

    IE8: IE8-WindowsXP-KB2898785 - x 86 - ENU.exe
    http://www.Microsoft.com/en-US/Download/details.aspx?ID=41404

    IE7: IE7-WindowsXP-KB2898785 - x 86 - ENU.exe
    http://www.Microsoft.com/en-US/Download/details.aspx?ID=41442

    IE6: WindowsXP-KB2898785 - x 86 - ENU.exe
    http://www.Microsoft.com/en-US/Download/details.aspx?ID=41458

    5. Once installed, you can reactivate the automatic updates and using Windows Update.

    Note: The bug also affects access via Windows/Microsoft Update Web site.

    KB2898785 is the "Cumulative Security Update for Internet Explorer" (December 10, 2013)

    There is a bug in the function of automatic update under XP running the SVCHOST process at full CPU load (100% or 50% or 25% depending on the number of CPU cores you have). If you have a Quad core CPU the bug works the CPU at 25% (a carrot out of four) and eventually battles through a conclusion - but if your computer is a single old Celeron or Pentium bug works the CPU chip at 100% load for many, many h/solid.

    Faster your processor and RAM than you seem to make a radical difference to the actual times are waiting for you maybe search for updates complete. Most of the old core systems were never designed to deal with this kind of situation and can easily overheat. This is especially true of laptops and desktop systems older where the radiator can be partially blocked with fluff and hairs of animals - which could cause blockages or stops!

    Microsoft said last month that the updates of Internet Explorer are treated differently from all the other updates - which is originally the XP update engine run so slowly as to appear frozen. If the update service finds that you don't have the latest version of IE that is currently available, it starts to search the entire tree of updates of IE to see what it takes - rather than offering just the cumulative current update for your system.

    But if you manually install the update yourself update Internet Explorer service is fully updated and is not search for updates of IE. But until Ms. fix it will still occur whenever a new update is published.

    MS said that intend to prune the IE updates database so that only the main cumulative updates have been offered when a search has been launched - it did not in time for the update as it should of November and obviously has not arrived or worked either in time for the December Update!

    MS say they hope to have a fix before the January updates are released (Patch Tuesday) - that the problem will be activated once the next update Cumulative of IE is released.

  • Firefox updates not - although I have OSX 10.5.8 it keeps saying I have too old a BONE. The auto-update for Firefox is grayed out. How can I update?

    I have a Mac Powerbook G4 with OS X 10.5.8. I get messages from Google that Firefox is an older version and need to update - so I went to the site of Firefox and the message said that "Unfortunately the latest version of Firefox is not compatible with the operating system of your computer. Learn more. "When I click on learn more, it is said that Firefox only works with OS X 10.5 and 10.6... the auto-Setup box to update for Firefox is grayed out and not clickable in Firefox preferences, there is no manual download I can find - how can I make Firefox recognize my OS and allow me to upgrade? Thank you very much.

    PPC Macs are not compatible with Firefox 4.0 and later versions.

    For older Mac that are not supported in Firefox 4 / 5 / 6, try TenFourFox of PowerPC running Mac 10.4.11 and 10.5.8.

    http://www.floodgap.com/software/tenfourfox/

    Or use Firefox 3.6.22.

  • Windows Update cannot find the new updates!

    Hello

    I have freshly installed Windows XP with SP3 on my new computer and I'm trying to fully updated.

    I never rely on the updates to work, so I am go to the Microsoft Update Website in IE 8, and there I went through a few cycles of updates, especially for the different versions of the .NET framework. At this point, there are no more left except the junk like Bing and Bing Desktop toolbar!

    I'm confused: where are the 126-or-so security updates that should be appear?

    I installed some updates manually (like the Windows Update Agent 30, that has caused me problems in the past) and rebooted several times, but nothing helps!

    Halp!  D:

    What is a "windows update agent 30 '... No microsoft.

    Try to remove, and then reinstall the update, the latest version is

    "microsoft update", you'll see that in the Download Center. In addition,

    XP is saved.

    Windows Agent 30 comes from Microsoft. He made sure the last Windows Update is installed.
