Customized Options power continues to shift in the absence

Hi all

I am running Windows Vista currently.

It has been a frustrating 2mths... make new & again...
Can't seem to find solutions... pls help! = P

  • FF continues to operate on the bottom after visiting Google mail.

    Since the 25 FF and with installed gtalk, FF continues to work on background only after the visit of Gmail. Disabling the addon from Gtalk, the problem is the same. If visit gmail with HTML only (slow connection) then firefox successfully completes. All other sites (F 25, 26 and 27) works very well. It is clear to me, it's a problem of Gtalk.

    If uninstalling Gtalk then FF plugin (up to 25-27) ends the success.

    The same problem has been detected with the following recent Linux distribution: Ubuntu, Mandriva 2010.2, Mandriva 2011 and 2013 OpenMandriva, Susa, on different machines, but with a similar material.

    GTalk works (phone call, chat and video calls) so that it runs without a problem, but at the close of FF, he continues to work on the bottom and did not open another window, except with the - new-instance option.

  • Cannot run javascript - options/content is even not see the javascript

    try using the options/content - does not yet show the javascript option. I uninstalled the program and reinstalled and get the same result. using xp.

    It is a global problem that JavaScript isn't running on any site? The power setting is always available in the topic: configuration preferences editor.

    (1) in a 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) If javascript.enabled is in bold and set to false, double-click it to activate it return true. It takes effect immediately, but you will need to reload the problem pages, so Firefox reads scripts.

    That repair or are sites remains a problem?

    One way that your normal default preferences could be changed is an extension, and another by external software, creating a user.js file. If this problem persists, you can analyze these two.
