Clicked allowing operations of AVG on Firefox

I clicked OK to a contextual link that AVG extra protection for searches of Google in Firefox. This caused the search box to be brand moy. But worse, she added a long address AVG in the main Firefox search box that must be removed before can be to enter an address. I found this to be most annoying.

I removed all the elements of AVG from my computer through the condition of Add/Remove Programs, but the condition of hijack persisted. Then I removed Mozillo Firefox and reloaded it, but the condition of diversion is still there. I have not been able to trace the source of the hijack file. Can anyone tell how to remove?

You can have an undesirable AVG extension. Try this:

Disable all non-essential or unrecognized extensions on page modules. Either:

  • CTRL + SHIFT + a
  • Firefox orange (or the Tools menu) button > Add ons

In the left column, click Extensions. Then, when in doubt, turn off. (Or, so obviously useless, delete).

Typically, 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.

You may select as your search engine on Google bar (icon on the left side) search again.

Potential problems (the new tab page, home page, etc.)?

The F7 function key activates the navigation with the keyboard on and outside. Or you can use the Options page, the accessibility section.

  • Tables work in Safari and Opera but not in Firefox

    I have a site of 2 columns with the sidebar on the left and content in the right. I try to make the page resembles a bulletin of the 2 column. The two columns are elastic and I made them 50% of the main container. When I put tables on each side, they appear side by side when I use Safari and Opera. However, with Firefox, the table on the right side is pushed off the page. I have the container main to a certain width and had the sidebar and maincontent 50% width. What can I do with the code or css styles to make them appear next when I use firefox? Thank you very much.

    In addition, your Firefox is identified at the forum as version 38. An update is available: this article describes how to get 49 Firefox using the "About Firefox" dialog in the menu help: Firefox update to the latest version.

    If something is holding you upgrade to Firefox 49 (or if you use the ESR, Firefox 45esr series), please let us know if we can offer you solutions or workarounds. Version 38 is not safe; Mozilla reveals security flaws after each new version.

    Sometimes Firefox reports the wrong version, because this information was frozen in a preferences file. If the troubleshooting information page shows Firefox 49.0.2, you may need to clear this incorrect information. See:

    You can disable the warning of redirection in the Preferences dialog box. Either:

    • button '3-bar' menu > Preferences > advanced > general mini-onglet
    • (menu bar) Firefox > Preferences > advanced > general mini-onglet

  • This week, new tab FIrefox showed 9 small tiles. Right-click allowed up to 21 tiles. How can I get that back?

    Earlier this week when I opened a new tab it suddenly showed my sites as small tiles rather than screenshots. Using the right click it allowed me to customize the page up to 7 tiles per line which saved me a lot of time. In the last hours when I opened a new tab it showed initially 9 screenshots and then open another tab with my custom sites. Suddenly, he turned to the screenshots only. How can I get the tiles to measure at the time when I opened a new tab?

  • Since the new update of firefox, I lost my pop up blocker and impossible to reinstall, my home page to open when I click on the n of the firefox browser cannot set

    Since the new update of firefox, I can't put my home page, it opens to a blank screen, I also lost my pop up blocker and I can't reinstall restore my computer to an earlier point and still can not set my homepage and restore my pop-up blocker. I tried all the suggestions and I still have this problem. Can you help me or do I uninstall mozilla firefox.

    Then:
    Some Firefox problems can be solved by performing a clean reinstall. This means that you remove Firefox program files, and then reinstall Firefox. Please follow these steps:

    Note: You can print these steps or consult them in another browser.

    1. Download the latest version of Firefox from mozilla.org office (or choose the download for your operating system and language on this page) and save the file to install it on your computer.
    2. Once the download is complete, close all Firefox Windows (or open the Firefox menu

      Click the close button

      ).

    3. Remove the Firefox installation folder, which is located in one of these locations, by default:
      • Windows:

        • C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox
        • C:\Program Files (x 86) \Mozilla Firefox
      • Mac: Delete Firefox in the Applications folder.
      • Linux: If you have installed Firefox with the distribution-based package manager, you must use the same way to uninstall: see Install Firefox on Linux. If you have downloaded and installed the binary package from the Firefox download page, simply remove the folder firefox in your home directory.
    4. Now, go ahead and reinstall Firefox:
      1. Double-click on the downloaded Setup file and go through the steps in the installation wizard.
      2. Once the wizard is completed, click to open Firefox directly after clicking the Finish button.

    More information on the resettlement of Firefox can be found here.

    WARNING: Do not use an uninstaller to third parties as part of this process. This could permanently delete your Firefox profile data, including but not limited to, extensions, cache, cookies, bookmarks, personal settings and passwords saved. They can be retrieved easily unless they have been backed up on an external device! See back up and restore the information contained in the profiles of Firefox.

    Please report to say if this helped you!

    Thank you.

  • Why some functions of "click on" does not work with Firefox and Ebay and my mailbox?

    When you go to my mail (especially Yahoo mail) I can't click on the boxes that allow me to delete or anything else. In addition, I can't hardly use Firefox at all with Ebay and other sites because of a similar problem. For example, the cursor will not change even a 'hand' on 'Sign In' on Ebay, or it will allow me to change the page number, if I have multiple items to sell or buy. I had to change all my Bill pay sites for IE for this same reason. You have any ideas? I am currently using Firefox 17.0.1.

    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 (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/tools > Modules > appearance).

    • Do not click on the reset button on the start safe mode window or make changes.
  • Cookie permissions changed to allow each time you start Firefox

    OK, here's the deal. Recently, I noticed that cookies are allowed despite their has refused. After messing around, I discovered that everything in having disabled cookies, whenever I run the FF cookies automatically application becomes activated (both accept cookies & third 3rd party cookies is checked). I removed the Cookie Monster & it's the same thing. I already deleted the file prefs.js and this was not good. At the time, I toggle the installed Cookies, which I have to click every time FF launches. At the launch, it starts as denied, and then it turns into permits. Once I click the icon and set it on refuse, then the checkmarks in the boxes to get out. So why are cookies automatically set parameters to allow whenever I run the FF application?
    I wonder if DoNotTrack had something to do with it? I've removed from FF. I also Ghostery, but until a week ago, Ghostery & Cookie Monster played well together.
    Anyone have any ideas? The browser has been infected with something? Noted today, launch FF in safe mode shows also that the parameters of cookies change not to permit. Apparently something running in normal mode is at the origin of the problem. Other plug ins present on the browser are: NoScript, Foxy Proxy, AdBlock plus, fast Java and Norton toolbar.

    Have you tried to disable all add-ons that specifically mention cookies?

    If you feel that other settings changes do not stick, too , between sessions, this may indicate a problem with permissions or file locks in your profile folder.

    External your security suite or other security/privacy software have its own settings cookies could be pushing into Firefox in some way?

  • Firefox does not after clicking on the symbol, cannot remove firefox because it tells me that it is still open! Windows 7 64 bit

    Firefox does not at all. Would like to remove it and reinstall, however when trying to uninstall a message pops up that I need to first close firefox! In short: impossible to remove firefox, impossible to reinstall, cannot use it. Operating system Windows 7, 64 bit, Sony laptop computer VAIO PCG 81213 M. Firefox worked just fine before. IE works fine.

    This can help if you have had the same problem as me on the occasions.

    Right-click on an empty area of the taskbar. In the menu that appears, select "start Task Manager". Along the upper part of the "Task manager" window, select the 'process '. You will see a list of running processes. Scroll down the list until you see Firefox. Select it and press the 'end process' at the bottom right. Click 'end process' on the warning popup that appears. Firefox should disappear from the list. Now you should be able to start or to uninstall. If Firefox does not appear in the list at all so this fix is not for you. I hope this helps.
