Firefox load ads in Twitter, but Internet Explorer is not

For some reason when I connect Twitter with Firefox ads always load in my sidebar and Twitter feed but if I connect on Twitter with Internet Explorer ads never load. What should I change in my configuration of Firefox to make these ads disappear? My popup blocker has already been activated.
Also, when I opened a new tab the Babylon search engine still load instead of Yahoo (my home page). I have my options still value load my home page when I load Firefox. I saw no option to choose which loads when I open a new tab. How can I change a new loading Babylon tab, so that it will load my homepage?

Thanks in advance.

good so I didn't want to really analyze my computer throughout the night, seeing as how I still have homework to do. so I thought I would just try to uninstall and reinstall the browser and that seems to have fixed the problems. no more advertising on Twitter and no more Babylon. Thank you anyway.

  • Firefox is no longer connected but internet Explorer doesn't. How can I restore firefox

    Has been using firefox for a long time. Yesterday, he disappeared and the only way I can get the East through Explorer.

    One possible cause is security software (firewall, antivirus) that prevents or limits Firefox or plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after the detection of changes (update) for the Firefox program.

    Delete all rules for Firefox and the plugin-container in the permissions list in the firewall and leave your firewall again ask permission to get full unlimited access to the internet for Firefox and the plugin-container and the update process.

  • I uninstalled firefox, but impossible to reinstall because the internet explore is not work

    I wanted to reinstall firefox so I went to add/remove prog. and deleted.
    Now, internet explore is not working. I don't know how to tell if its disabled because of firefox making previously.
    The reason to install it again was because he stopped to hold my passwords.
    I have a second computer that I use to communicate with you.

    Hi zaqzaq,

    You can download the installer of firefox (http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/new/) on your second computer, copy it to a flashdrive and then install it on your first computer.

    I don't ' think that firefox does nothing to internet explore. The only thing I can think is that you may have firefox as default browser. However, would not prevent Explorer to work. If your question is about what's wrong with explorer, it might be useful to a microsoft forum.

  • When I download an update for a program it opens Internet Explorer and not Firefox

    Firefox is always kept open on my PC. When I have an update of the program, I accept that but then Internet Explorer opens for me to download the update. It would normally usually Firefox. Why opens Internet Explorer and not open in Firefox as per normal?

    Which depends on the program involved. Some programs will use the default browser , that the user has defined in preferences, while others will use the browser that comes with the operating system. IE in the case of Safari on Mac and Windows.

    You have Firefox set as default browser in Vista?

    Access to programs and default settings in Vista, IIRC.

  • a toolbar that I got on internet explore has not imported to firefox, please help

    a toolber I had on internet explore has not imported to firefox can someone tell me how get it back please because ive just install firefox today so im not sure what to do, thanks

    This has happened

    Just once or twice

    is today

    It depends on which toolbar is. With some you need to install the Firefox version of this toolbar, with others, you may need to reinstall the application that put this toolbar in the web browser, and with others there could not be a version of this available for Firefox toolbar.

    Sorry I can't be more specific, but without knowing which toolbar you are talking about it is the best answer I can offer.

  • Internet Explorer does not allow my program to run.

    I have the Foscam wireless camera setup to display on my computer.  I now watch on a Mac.  I just bought the HP Pavilion Entertainment PC.   When I try to run Internet Explorer will not allow him to start.  It has something to do with the certificates of the program. He was down to install activeX.  I click on install and the program still does not work.   What I would do.   I use dyndns.org as the host of the show.

    Thank you.

    PS: If I use Firefox I can view a camera at a time.  With IE, I should be able to view both.  I use IE at work, and it works.  Some thing on this PC it blocks and I can't understand it.

    Thanks again.

    I finally have success.   I searched online and found the following.   It is in fact of Foscam.   A simple click on the Advanced tab and it worked.    Thank you for leading me to search online for details of Foscam.  I hope that if someone is having the same problem that they check here.   Before I was just checking the custom section.  But it's the Advanced tab.

    You have been very helpful.  I appreciate your time spent on it.

    Thank you

    If your using Internet Explorer 8 or 9, follow these steps:

    1. open Internet Explorer 9-> click Tools-> Internet Options

    2. click on the Advanced tab-> find the Security section

    It reads:

    Windows received an HTTP error message: 403 (refused).
    -> If this problem is consistenly prevent windows to connect to several sites on the Internet, contact your network administrator or your ISP.

    When he first stopped working, I could use the system restore, but after a few months I dropped and now I can't restore the system to a place that it worked fine.

  • Internet Explorer does not work correctly?

    My Microsoft Internet explorer is not working properly and I had some problems with viruses that have been resolved.  I use Goodgle Chrome to do what I have to, but that's all.  I use Yahoo mail and cannot do so with Internet Explorer?  What can I do to clean Internet Explorer?

    You should review seriously use IE for anything other than Windows Update. It's a malware magnet. Firefox or Chrome with blockers of advertising would be a better choice.

    Unfortunately, I do not have malware. I just never get everything... maybe 1 or 2 in my life.

    I would like to have your PC checked by an expert from malware. They're at BleepingComputer.com (the creators of MalwareBytes and other malicious software utilities)... Tell them what you told me in the I'm infected? forum and they give you a certificate of good health.

  • Internet Explorer does not open

    I got an eMachine who was 'slow' that my client wanted cleaned and accelerated. It is Vista Home Basic (without Service Pack yet) and has two users, an administrator and a Standard. Antivirus is Norton. The reason why it has been slow is that she only had installed 512 MB of Ram and a part of which was used by the video. The only spy/advertising software he had was about 250 cases of MyWebSearch which I cleaned. I added just an another 512 MB of ram and has greatly improved the speed. The only problem I have now is that Internet Explorer does not open in a user account. It appears in the Task Manager. If I try to run again, it will show a second instance in Task Manager. He just will not come to the top. The customer has Firefox installed and works well. I called her and she confirmed that IE had not worked. What should I look for?

    Service Pack 2 cured it. I think that SP 2 updated IE 7 to 8. I never could see what was originally in it because it does not open. But it's IE 8 now.
