I installed the extension, it seems that there are several options to solve the problems with the places.sqlite file, I ran each option one at a time. I think that it may have helped a little, kind of hard to say. But the symptoms you report seems closely related to what is seen in the blog.

As noted in the blog, uninstalled later expansion.

Also, I try to restart Firefox when the CPU get more than 1 hour because things really slow down when the firefox.exe gets nearly 2 hours. For that I use "Restartless Restart" (for Firefox 4.0 and more)

  • How can I get the window 'Remember password' to show for more than 2 seconds?

    Many hotels offer wifi access with a good and an ID that you enter each time that you connect. Firefox easily stores the ID and the password so I don't have to worry about finding the right, but the gate of the hotel displays a pop up right after login. At the same time, Firefox offers to save the password and the popup is the prompt of password remember disappear.
    I can can this setting somewhere or get the prompt back?
    I'm never fast enough to click "remember password".
    Thank you
    Chris

    This happens on all websites, or just this one?

    If there is a key icon located on the left side of your address bar, you can click this option to open the password prompt again.

    If there is no key icon in the address bar, it is most likely because the site is configured to redirect to another page or a domain. Once you are redirected or navigate to another page, the password dialog box will disappear.

    Unfortunately, if this is the case, nothing you can do, as the redirect is probably in the codes of the Web site. The only option would be to try to stop the redirection Web site by clicking on the button stop in the address bar.

    You can also try temporarily turning the accessibility setting that prevents the redirection of Firefox Web sites. This can be changed from the advanced settings in the page options, on the general tab.

    Let us know if it works.

    Note: If you stop the redirection page, you probably to reload the page after you have saved the password, in order to allow the site load the appropriate content. If you turn on the warn me when forwarding setting, you will need to disable this feature, after you save this password, so that the website to function properly.

  • Get Windows 7 is not genuine for more than 6 months on laptop

    I have Windows 7, I bought with an Advent Roma 3000 laptop from PC World over 2 years ago.  For more than 6 months now, I get a message that my Windows is not genuine and there is a message in bottom right of the screen "Windows 7 Build 7600, this copy of Windows is not genuine."  IT IS!  I've been to PC World, which just re-installed Windows 7 and said if it happens again I had to do it myself.  I've done 4 times and each time after about a week, it happens again. I bought it in good faith.  Obviously a MS update changes the status of Windows.  I've had enough, and if I can't sort I will soon buy a new machine, which will be an Apple because MS doesn't give a sh * t.  I tried to contact them, nothing works!
