change the firefox icon in the address bar
I try to customize firefox to look like IE, don't ask why, believe me, I don't want. Anyway, I downloaded FoxE9, that customizes a bit look like ie9, which I think it's the closest I'm going to Firefox.
Only problem Im crossing is the firefox icon that is in the address bar on the left side, I think its called a favicon?
Is it possible to change or remove? It is also the portable version of firefox 26.
https://addons.Mozilla.org/en-us/Firefox/addon/foxe9/
Not much in the way of images of example here.If it has nothing to do the Web site you are viewing, then this isn't a favicon. Please provide a screenshot of what you are referring.
https://support.Mozilla.org/en-us/KB/how-do-i-create-screenshot-my-problem
It is best to use a compressed image type like PNG or JPG to save the screenshot and make sure that you do not exceed a maximum file size of 1 MB.
Then use the button Browse... below the text message response area to download the screenshot.

When I click on the Firefox icon on my desktop, instead of struggling just to the Firefox page, I get a box asking me if it's good for Firefox to make changes to my computer. If I hit Yes, I get the Firefox page. If I don't hit, I get nothing. What is the reason for this?
Check that you are not Firefox running as administrator.
Right click on the desktop Firefox shortcut and choose "Properties".
Make sure that all items are disabled in the tab "Compatibility" in the Properties window.
- Privilege level: "Run this program as Administrator" should not be selected
- "Run this program in compatibility mode for:" must not be selected
Also check the firefox.exe program properties in the Firefox program directory.

I'm a prisoner of the "new private window? Is it OK if I don't want that? God is going to punish me? It certainly looks that way.
I got Win 10 for 4 months and until yesterday, 11/10, I didn't even know about the 'new private window' and the flag purple now appears when I right-click on the Firefox icon. Someone tried to help her by suggesting new privacy settings. So I lost most of my desktop shortcuts but not the private window! I'll be back most of the shortcuts, but I'm still stuck with the purple flag company. I have a background of tech and only for this reason that I try to keep things simple. It is vital that, how did you before? Any help or clarification will be appreciated. Thanks for listening.
