Facebook is starting to scare me. I can with Firefox social network?
Facebook is just too drastic. If there was some way I could social network with a system that is not followed my movements that would be great. Which may suggest the Mozilla group? Thank you.
No, Firefox is a web browser, not a social network or a social networking site.

How can I get Thunderbird to switch to a new tab immediately as I can with Firefox?
Everytime I open a new tab in Thunderbird, no matter how I do it (menu, double click, etc), it opens the content in a new tab, but keeps the focus on the current tab. How can I get Thunderbird to move immediately to a new tab when I opened a? It is quite annoying to have to mouse to the list of the tab and click the new each time. It's SO easy to set up in Firefox, but seems to be completely absent in Thunderbird. Weird.
Thank you for your attention to this matter,

I'm having a lot of problems with firefox and cannot figure out how to get help. It all started when I updated to 13. I get all kinds of advertising popups, I can't play a game on FaceBook called Farm Town at all, and I get a popup of AVG on the cookies that I can't get rid of. These issues are causing me to use Chrome quite often, although I like Fox better. I've searched and searched how to get help and find nothing. How can I get personalized technical help? These problems will not occur in Chrome at all. Thank you.
Do a check with some malware malware, analysis of programs on the Windows computer.
You need to scan with all programs, because each program detects a different malicious program.
Make sure that you update each program to get the latest version of their databases before scanning.- http://www.malwarebytes.org/mbam.php - Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware

Today when I log in to Facebook through Firefox, it opens only 2 or 3 posts by the news feed (it happens very often, but not always). As I can remember, I've ever known such a problem in the past, with the exception of the rare and occasional accidents which were solved instantly. I am facing this problem for 5-6 months.
Whenever I face such a problem with Firefox, I log in to Facebook through Google Chrome to check if my internet connection works correctly and have found no such problem with Google Chrome. I also checked to see if this problem is caused by an update hidden applications or anti-virus automatic scan, but found nothing. I also tried "Refresh Firefox - discount to zero and settings modules" and uninstall and reinstall but the problem was not solved. All solutions, please?
Please make sure that there is not a problem with any acceleration addons or material by trying Safe Mode:

I tried to install Firefox 13 and 14 on my netbook, a starter for Windows 7 operating system running. The installation starts to go smoothly since the file setup.exe; but after the installation appears to be complete, and I press the button "Open Firefox" program of firefox can be seen to start opening because it accumulates approximately 50 MB of private bytes RAM on the windows task manager or the service program of "process explorer" from sysinternals. However, the firefox window never opens and so firefox does not appear to be installed properly. "" Also I had problems with getting the album ' addon to install properly. " I have another computer, a laptop, XP family and I can get Firefox to 13 or 14 to install but it is on the other computer that I can't get the 'Scrapook' addon to install correctly. There is no notice on the Addon page saying the addon "Scrapbook" does not work on Firefox 13 or 14 and the addon installs, but not properly, so it does not work.
I have old files Firefox setup.exe, and if I'm successful to install an older version, firefox 3 or 4 on an external hard drive. I got this old firefox to work on XP Home Edition on a hard drive external laptop and can successfully use the addon "Scrapbook" in this way.
I don't understand why I have problems with Firefox 13 or 14. I think I first noticed the problem with Firefox 12 "Scrapbook".
Thank you marcsances for your reply very comprehensive. Your advice jogging my memory, so before I have done as you suggest, I reinstalled Firefox 14 and then uninstalled using the windows 7 program/control panel uninstall installation. In doing so, the Firefox uninstall window opens and when asked to choose to uninstall any program or all personal settings etc. too, choose to uninstall all personal settings too. I then reinstalled Firefox 14 and the Scrapbook addon and they now work correctly.
I daresay that your instructions are quite right, in this case, I don't have to go through the command prompt.
Thank you.

There is also another problem associated with which is that whenever Firefox is 32-bit mod I listen to music the sound always comes not as clogged clear. When I restart my computer it is not 32-bit the sound returns to normal. I use Windows 7.
Please note that the 32-bit versions and 64-bit of Windows Vista and Windows 7 can be used to run Firefox 9, only 32-bit versions of Firefox 9 are supported at this time. (see "System requirements" http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/9.0.1/system-requirements/ )

No saving necessary data and re-installing Windows Vista might be the best option, but here
are a few others.You can save your files by putting the drive in another computer as a 2nd disk (best) or external
Drive USB enclosure and then backup to removable media such as CD, DVD or other USB drives.
Of course a real store of the computer or the manufacturer of your system can help to recover the files.Or you can use a boot Ubuntu CD to back up data.
Use Ubuntu Live CD to backup files from your Windows computer dead

You can access Mode safe? Repeatedly press F8 as you start? If yes you can try Control Panel - device
Manager - graphics card - Double click on - driver tab - click on UPDATE driver - then right click
on devices and UNINSTALL - REBOOT.A method to try to get to the desktop (try in normal Windows Mode without failure) is CTRL +.
ALT + DELETE - Manager tasks and tab process EXPLORER.exe and COMPLETE the PROCESS on this subject - and then
on the Applications tab - lower right - new task - type in EXPLORER.exe. Safe mode is available by
repeatedly tapping F8 as you start. CTRL + SHIFT + ESC also begins the Task Manager.First check this thread in case it is simple and if not to come back to this thread.
Black screen problems are extremely difficult to repair and all patch is usually on a base hit or miss.
That there is no information on a black screen as it is on a blue screen just adds to the
Difficulty. Often using a restore point or Startup Repair will have no effect. You can try a
Google to see the proposed repairs, whom some have worked however these cover a wide

Vista System Restore does not work. I disable Norton Antivirus before you start the process. What can I do else?
1. try SR in safe mode:
Try typing F8 at startup and in the list of Boot selections, select Mode safe using ARROW top to go there > and then press ENTER.
Try a restore of the system once, to choose a Restore Point prior to your problem...
Click Start > programs > Accessories > system tools > system restore > choose another time > next > etc.
2 Malware will stop at the system restore:
If necessary, do all the work Safe Mode with network.
To get into Safe Mode with network, press F8 at the Power On / boot and use key arrow upward to get into SafeMode with networking from the list of options, and then press ENTER.

OT:help configuration of Windows Update.
I use windows 8, now my problem is that I have to enter a user_name and password each time you start the browser, if you close the browser, or open another browser, you must enter user password again once you use a wifi or lab computers. Now when I connect to wifi, my browser instantly request name username-password but windows update is not so. I tried this a few times, only once named windows update displays dialong box asking username and password and it takes hours to do.
How can I configure windows update already if start update already when I connect to the school network.
Wifi authentication which traverse the browser means that you still need to open a browser and a connection that first, before any other programs can access the network.

I get an Fatal Exception on start up error, and I can only run in safe mode on my dv6
I get an Fatal Exception on start up error and I can only run in safe mode on my dv6, can someone please help? I don't really want to reset to the factory settings I have to reinstall everything. I tried to go back through the system restore, but it keeps telling me that there is no restore point? I'm running Windows7 64 bit OS
Thanks in advance.
Hi Hazel,
Start in Safe Mode, open windows control panel, open programs and features and uninstall Comodo Firewall (this will probably be listed as Comodo Internet Security depending on the version).
Once completed, restart the laptop in Safe Mode .
As before, open all programs, open accessories, right-click on command prompt and select "run as Administrator". In the command prompt type the following commands and press enter after each one.
Drivers CD (Note that there is a space between cd and drivers)
del cumon.sys (Note that there is a space between the led and cumon.sys)
output
NOTE: If you get an error after entering del cumon.sys as the "specified path cannot be fouund", it's Ok.
Restart the computer and see if Windows starts normally.
Kind regards
