• Firefox asked out of the blue if I want to download afr.php - what is it?

  I forgot to take dumps of the document screen. AFR.php has been described as a text file and I thought I'd have a glance. However, firefox has warned it was a script, so I gave up the download. A hacker attack?

  > A hacker attack?

  No doubt. I can't say how or why it happened, but that's what I think:

  A malware has attempted to open a PHP script on your local system, and it seems you didn't have not a Web + PHP server install on your system, so that the script was not run, instead, Firefox is a file download and asked if you want to download it.

  Hi Ken, Firefox will not start now, complaining that it cannot find its profile, or it starts up, but data are incomplete?

  Here is a procedure to return to your prior to refresh the data. It takes 5 minutes, but it's probably faster than the recovery of individual data files and those in a new profile from loading.

  Check inside the folder 'Old data Firefox' update adds on your desktop in a folder with a name random semi. If there is only one, that probably has your old settings and Add-ons. If there is more than one, you'll want to work with one who has been updated recently.

  Once you have identified the profile folder, that you want to restore, here is my "old profile resurrection suggested procedure:

  Overview

  Here are the steps described in more detail below:

  1. Create a new Firefox profile
  2. Delete all of this profile folder
  3. Copy in all of the old profile folder

  Create a new profile for Firefox (Windows)

  Out of Firefox and start in the Profile Manager by pasting the following text in the search box of the start menu, or the start > Run dialog box and pressing ENTER:

  firefox.exe -P
  

  Note: any time want to switch profiles, exit Firefox and return to this dialog box.

  Click on the button create a profile, give it a name like OldSettings and skip the option to change the location of the folder. Select the new profile from the dialog box, and then start Firefox.

  Open the new profile folder in Windows Explorer

  Firefox in the new profile should look like a new installation of the plant. Open the troubleshooting information page by using either:

  • button "3-bar" menu > "?" button > troubleshooting information
  • Menu help > troubleshooting information
  • type or paste everything: in the address bar and press Enter

  In the first table, click on the view file"" button. Firefox will launch your new profile folder in Windows Explorer.

  This folder open, switch back to Firefox and get out by using either:

  • "3-bar" menu button > button "power".
  • (menu bar) File > Exit

  Firefox is closed, the profile folder must be front and Center, or you can activate it by using the taskbar.

  Copy old data instead of new

  In this new profile folder you just popped open - NOT the one on your desktop - select all content (you can use Ctrl + a) and delete (you can press Delete on the keyboard).

  Leave this window open, open or switch to your folder of old data of Firefox. Consult your old profile folder. At this level, you should see a folder named bookmarkbackups among other things.

  Select all (Ctrl + a) and copy (or right-click > copy or Ctrl + c).

  Switch to the empty profile folder in another window and paste (or right-click > paste or Ctrl + v). This may take a few minutes because some files are large.

  Launch Firefox

  Firefox should start in this 'new' profile with the old resurrected profile data. Success?

• Firefox ask you useless master password every time you start

  When he started, Firefox asks unnecessarily my master password every time. My homepage (Google Finance) does not require a password. This occurs in SafeMode as well. It's annoying and time consuming. I X-out the main 10 seconds password request window after I start Firefox. Why would he do that? ... Firefox not used to do this.

  You use Sync?

  The synchronization used in Firefox 34 version then use password manager to store the name (e-mail) and password to use to connect to the synchronization server.

  Earlier versions of Firefox used to store these data in the signedInUser.json file in the profile folder, but the current version only stores the sessionToken in this folder and need the password for the password manager.

• How to make Firefox ask again me if I want to save a password for a website when I already said it not?

  I go to a website and log on to it.
  Firefox asks me if I want to save the password.
  I say no.
  Later, I decide that I don't want Firefox to save the password on this website.

  How can I make Firefox ask me if I want to save this password again?

  The Web site is not listed in the (Options-Security-passwords-Exceptions) list.

  I see that you always use the old version of Firefox 29.

  In this version autocomplete = off on the form will prevent Firefox to store the name and the password.
  In this version, you have the signon.overrideAutocomplete set to true.
  In Firefox 29, the default value is false, and in the current version this pref is set to true by default and will bring up the door hanger to remember the password.

  But you need to update to version Firefox 34 because Firefox 29 known security vulnerabilities.

  I have the latest version of firefox to date (15/10/2014 v32) and I still get messages while on various sites Internet (Youtube, Google, Gmail), telling me that your Firefox is out of date and may contain a security risk.

  I have not even this message on the support pages of mozilla.org?

  Thank you

  Hello your useragent (information, the browser sends to websites to identify its version) - apparently by mistake - shows this:

  Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:2.0.1) Gecko/20140923 Firefox/4.0.0; xs-A30GTmfXR3o;CkHZPf;
  

  probably some kind of unwanted software has crashed it. Please refer to this article in order to reset the user agent settings in firefox:
  Sites Internet says that Firefox is obsolete or incompatible, even if it's the latest version

• Firefox asked me to upgrade my sound system & in the process, I have installed a Zombie and I can't uninstall it in Windows 7 via my control panel. Prva Nice

  Firefox asked me to upgrade my sound system & in the process, I have installed a Zombie and I can't uninstall it in Windows 7 via my control panel. I expected more of Firefox as a privacy feature!

  Sorry to hear about this, you should always beware of the pop-ups - never open or install anything, unless it is on the official website. Firefox has built-in features (and extensions that you need to find and install) to protect your privacy and security, but all users must still be careful with their browsing habits. You can report malicious links to the FBI Internet Crime Complaint Center here: http://www.ic3.gov/complaint/default.aspx

  You can also report false web documents by clicking on:

• How do we stop it Firefox asking to update the password on the secondary registration pages?

  Many sites Web uses a name of user and password and a 'secret question' sign in. Part II contains usually enter the answer a random question, as 'the mother maiden name. " 'place of birth' etc.

  When this happens, Firefox asks if I want to update the password that it stores. I have obviously not because it will change my real password, and the answer will be different the next time in any case. This happens on all the signs in and there is no way I can tell Firefox not do; the only options are up to date or "not now".

  I always feel like Firefox to remember the user principal name and the real password, so how do I prevent him from asking questions about these pseudo passwords without turning off the main connection details record?

• I specified downloads should always open automatically in Acrobat, and I want to change this now & have firefox ask every time again.

  Whenever I download a file, Firefox asked me what to do with it: open, save, in the office, etc. There is also a check box to "automatically in the future." I checked this box, so now Firefox will automatically open in Acrobat, as I was clear. But now I have changed my mind and want Firefox ask me what to do with each download. How can I change this preference?

• When I check "you sign out all other computers or devices", what exactly does?

  I managed to have more than two Mac want to use my CC Apps.

  One of them is a MacBook, I borrowed some time ago (when my good old MacBook was stolen) to continue to work, the other is my iMac, and the third is my new MacBook Pro I am setting up right now.

  As I don't have easy access to this borrowed MacBook more, I thought "you sign out all other computers or devices" is the ability to get rid of unnecessary activations and start all over again. In this way, I think that I can activate all my apps on my new MacBook Pro and once again on my iMac.

  But how it works? He really disable CC on all devices?

  Or what I need to "manually" disable on this MacBook borrowed in any case.

  Only disable it on my iMac is not an option, because I (want to be able to) constantly switch between my iMac and my new MacBook Pro. Disable and re-enable are much too heavy.

  Bottom line:

  "You sign out all other computers or devices" really turns off all devices (even if you don't have access to it) and start with a clean slate?

  Yes.

  I use usually when you go on vacation and from my laptop (usually at the airport for some work) when I know I forgot to turn off on my home or office computer before leaving.  I get disconnected from my home computer and office and I am able to use my laptop on my trip.

  When I go home, I start one of my home/office computers and do the same (this time of disconnection from my laptop because I forgot to do upon his return from vacation).

• Firefox asks too many questions when opening download sites of the Court docs, don't allow me to select a program favorite and questions document certificate.

  I am a lawyer and systematically download of documents in case of legal databases and many other Web sites without problem.

  Until recently, I would click a document link and Firefox to open the document. At worst,.
  Firefox does not recognize the file type, but once I said to use the program selected for this type of file, it had no problems. In particular, the databases of court under PDF documents scanned or converted a type called 'File', which means that I had to save the program preferences.

  Sometimes in the past month, Firefox stopped cooperating. I confess that I downloaded a few Add-ons and tweaked some settings, but I have now uninstalled or disabled everything except the Add - ons more trustworthy, and nothing looks weird in my settings. However, the following now happens when I click on a link to an electronic document:

  1. the document is downloaded.
  2. I click on the download arrow and then double-click the document
  3. a window will appear asking 'do you want to open this file?', says it is an unknown file type, and "Internet files can be useful, some files can potentially harm your computer... "and displays a box checked always saying"ask before opening this file. »
  4. I have either click OK to open it or uncheck the box and click OK.
  5. then the 'Open with' window appears. However, the box always use the selected program is grayed out any program, I chose, so that whenever I do that I have to go through this window.
  6. If not a not uncheck the box in step 2, another window appears asking me again if I really want to open the file.
  7. Finally, the document opens, but at the top, it said "the validity of the certification of the document is UNKNOWN. The author could not be verified.

  All these files save as type 'File' are all PDF files, and all opened right in Chrome and explore. I like Firefox, but I have access to these databases all the time and must avoid the hassle with downloads.
