• Page updated Firefox guard opening in a new tab, everytime I open Firefox. How can I stop this?

  Whenever I open Firefox, update checking window first opens, then I get 2 tabs open. One is my home page, the other is the page that opens after you have installed a new version of Firefox. How can I get the Firefox update page to stop opening? I had the same thing happen with the add-on "Download Helper". The only way I could get him to stop was to disable it. I am running windows 7 and 9 of Firefox.

  Please, try to create a new profile and check if the problem persists.

• When you open a Word document downloaded, hundreds of tabs begin opening in Firefox. How can I stop this happening?

  I just installed Office 2007 on my computer and downloaded some documents on the internet. When I try to open Firefox becomes crazy and opens the tabs of the browser faster that I can close them, with no sign of stopping. How can I stop what is happening and have access to the downloads? Any help much appreciated!

  OK, solved. It's not Firefox, it's Windows. Somehow, it had been changed to open Word documents as browsers. I had my suspicions that it wasn't Firefox as Word documents to open in form of tabs in the browser even if Firefox is not running. The only way to open a Word doc was if it was already on the hard drive.

  For someone who has a similar problem, it's how to correct:

  Open my computer.
  On the Tools menu, click Folder Options.
  Click the File Types tab.
  In the registered file types list, click the file that you are trying to open. In my case, it was the doc files. In the list this type of file has been shown by a Firefox icon, indicating that what was used to open the file.
  Under the list of registered file types scroll details for each file type are displayed, with an option for "opens with:
  Click Edit to the right of the present and choose the program to use in the future. Click OK and close the dialog box file types. This should solve the problem.

  How can I stop?

  Sorry, this is a message from the heart function. She undergoes a bug right now. Better to turn it off if you can get immediate relief.

  To turn off the heart rate:
  Talk openly about: config config in a tab, then search for browser.selfsupport.url and double click on it and set it to an empty value.

  You may need to restart Firefox for the changes to take effect.

• Startup of Firefox now has auto-fill on the search. How can I stop this?

  Start of Firefox, Google search, used to have no AutoFill for searches when I type one search, I want to see suggestions for my research. It is extremely annoying. It's the only reason why I use Firefox Start. Google will not allow you to choose to fill in for research. How can I make this stop in Firefox?

  I have been using the page and it still works without the troublesome AutoComplete feature. The only downside is when I look at the news links. They are a bit limited, but I can work around that. Thank you.

• When I open the Firefox browser, as well as my homepage of opening, a new tab opens in the same time, how can I stop this please?

  This problem has only just begun and I don't know why. When I click the icon to open the Firefox browser, my homepage tab opens and another new tab opens to the sides of my Home Page tab. I checked and none are tube not characters in my address of the home page.

  This seems to take place (e.g., Firefox opens my home page AND a new tab at startup - unsolved).

  In case one of your extensions is in question, could test you mode without failure of Firefox? It is a standard diagnostic tool to disable some advanced features of Firefox and extensions. More info: questions to troubleshoot Firefox in Safe Mode.

  You can restart Firefox in Mode safe help

  Help > restart with disabled modules (Flash and other plugins still works)

  In the dialog box, click on 'Start mode safe' (not Reset)

  Any difference when using the Home key or open a new window (Ctrl + n)?

  Hello

  I imagine the inconvenience that you are experiencing. I'll certainly try and help you fix the issue; However, I will need to ask you a few questions.

  1. what version of IE are you using?

  2 do you have of them pack installed?

  3. do you have an antivirus installed on the computer?

  4. do you also deal with any show related to problems with the computer?

  5. are you aware of any changes made to the computer before the show?

  First of all, you can run a full scan using the Microsoft Safety Scanner.

  Note: there is a risk of data loss if all the files are infected and which can be removed in the cleaning process.

  You can then try to launch the FIXIT of the article and see if it helps. Also go through the steps in this article as well and check it out.

  If you try the manual steps, do not forget to back up the registry.

  When I double-click an attachment in and by e-mail, whether it's a file pdf, Word, Powerpoint, Excel files, or anything else, it always opens a file save dialog box and I have to choose where to save the file first, before I open it. I'm used to just file open and then if I want to record I'll save slot in the document and save it. How can I change the settings so that's how are treated attachments? This problem is there for whatever else I'm looking for e-mails, whether through Hotmail or OWA... Thank you!

• Firefox won't let pages redirect when they need to. How can I stop this?

  When on Web sites, I have always used I have to "allow" for moving from one area to another. I didn't do it before. At the top, it says 'Firefox prevented this redirect page' or 'reload page' and then when I hit allow that it still does not a lot of time. I removed some add-ons because I thought they might be at the origin of this but did not help. Have not been able to find whatever it is under 'options' on my other add-ons that looks like it would interrupt what he does. Help, please!

  There is a setting for that turn on and off. If you don't set yourself, maybe one of your extensions don't? Anyway, please check (UN) here:

  "3-bar" menu button (or tools) > Options > advanced

  In the mini ' General' tab, uncheck "warn me when websites try to redirect or reload the page.

  Hello BILLYBOB13, also, in the details of your system, it seems that you have a User.js file in your profile folder . The user.js file does not exist by default. If you create the file, forget it, if you do not create the file, delete the file User.js (some programs create and write in the file also).

  Thank you

  Hello

  You did changes to the computer before the show?

  Method 1: I suggest you to reinstall the Microsoft Visual C++ Package and check if it helps:

  Package redistributable Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 (x 86)

  http://www.Microsoft.com/download/en/details.aspx?displaylang=en&ID=29

  Package redistributable Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 (x 86)

  http://www.Microsoft.com/download/en/details.aspx?ID=5555

  Method 2:  You can also try to create a new user account and check this problem persists:

  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/create-a-user-account

  If the problem persists no new user account, and then fix the corrupted profile by following the link below:
