Firefox on Win XP does not connect after update! Possible causes?

Two weeks ago Firefox auto-installé the latest version. The browser immediately lost the connection with the internet. I can't open new sites t and already open tabs cannot be updated.
I have since trip, where the late issue.

For better or for worse the Windows Firewall is not enabled.

I am running Windows XP Pro on an AMD dual-core computer.

The strange thing is a previous instance used Opera as your primary browser seems to work perfectly, I use it now to write this.

An attempt to install of Google Chrome has failed due to internet connection issues?

Latest Firefox on a Linux partition works perfectly afaics.

A new upgrade of a downloaded installation file did not resolve the issue, nor has an uninstall and a clean reinstall.

I have in any way tinkered with the options of the browser, or the internet connection before the problem.

Grateful for the advice.

Best

Phil

As far as I KNOW, the only way to really disable the Windows Firewall is by installing another firewall program.

  • EMCC OUI(Win 2012) does not restart after updates.

    Hello

    I am trying to install the EMCC 12.1.0.4 on a virtual machine in Windows Server 2012 hosted on an ESXi server. Previously installed without getting updates completed without any problems. Because some features did not work properly, I decided to install once more and also get updates from Oracle. I followed the directions of advanced installation. The virtual machine has been reset to the stage before. So no installation is dirty.

    After getting updates and display the patches Oracle Setup calls a Windows saying that the installer will be restarted. But it's not. I waited and waited, but nothing happened.

    Newspapers shows the first steps after the restart and no other error. I tried several other approaches:

    1. download the updates from the server to install and use my credentials for Metalink

    2. use the option - ignoresysprereqs

    3 use the option - showProxy

    4. download updates on another server using the option - downloadUpdates as the copy on the server to win 2012.

    In all cases the same behavior:

    After you click OK in the windows message saying that will follow a restart of the installation, the installation program restarts, a command window is displayed for 1-2 seconds, then everything stops.

    I have everything running as administrator.

    See below the last lines of my log file of the inventory from the last test.

    Hello

    a realization to the description in my question:

    The list of patches to install was the following:

    Patch 19337487 for the Service of management of Oracle for 12G

    Patch 19003055 for the Service of management of Oracle for 12G

    Patch 19519190 for the Service of management of Oracle for 12G

    BASIC 20392036 ENTERPRISE platform MANAGER - SGD 12.1.0.4.3 PSU (GENERIC)(System Patch)

    Updated 14045804 YES

    And I was able to capture the contents of the command window that appears for 1-3 seconds prior to YES.

    Are more errors saying:

    ...

    error: cannot remove the old c:\Users\Admini~1\AppData\Local\Temp\2\OraInstall2015-05-18_02_04_18PM\oui\jlib\xml.jar

    ...

    YES updates patch would probably come in conflict with the running configuration.

    In any case have not yet no solution.

  • Ethernet USB adapter does not work after update to sierra mac

    Ethernet USB adapter does not work after update to mac sierra.

    Please solve this problem as soon as POSSIBLE

    Hello guatamshah,

    If your USB to ethernet adapter does not work now that you have upgraded to Mac OS Sierra, there are a number of things we can try to get it working again.

    The first thing we want to do is to reset the SMC and the NVRAM on your Mac.
    Reset the management system (SCM) controller on your Mac.

    https://support.Apple.com/en-us/HT201295

    How to reset the NVRAM on your Mac.
    https://support.Apple.com/en-us/HT204063

    If the adapter is not still work after only two resets check to see if your Mac recognizes the device properly in the information system. In the Apple Menu, choose about this Mac, and then click the button 'system report... '. ». Once you have the window open system information, see the USB category on the left.
    OS X: about system information and System Profiler

    https://support.Apple.com/en-us/HT203001

    If she does not appear in the information system, see the articles below.

    https://support.Apple.com/kb/PH25343

    macOS Sierra: check your device's USB connection

    https://support.Apple.com/kb/PH25567

    However, if you do not see the device in system information, you may need to verify that network service appears correctly. In the Apple menu, choose system then Network preferences. You should see an entry similar to "Ethernet" on the left. If no, see the steps in the article below to add. Once add, test to see if your connection works with a disabled Wi - Fi connection.

    https://support.Apple.com/kb/PH25279

    If it does not appear in the network, please let us know what you see on the right when you select the service, and the name of the service as it appears and we can go from there!

    Kind regards.

    As some Menu items: Modules, Help Menu and Pocket Extension does not work after update to 17.0

    This may be caused by the Tab Mix Plus extension

    Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/tools > Modules > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is the cause of the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/tools > Modules > appearance).

    • Do not click on the reset button on the start safe mode window or make changes.

I understand that your touch screen has stopped working after update the drivers on your laptop PC HP Pavilion 11 - n001tu x 360 .

    How you did update the drivers?

    You use Windows Update?

    • Find "Human Interface Devices"
    • Expand "Human Interface Devices"
    • Right-click on "touch screen HD compliant."
    • Click 'Activate' (if available)

    If losing your touch screen happened after you had made a set of Windows updates, use the system restore feature and choose a date that was before the problems began.

  • Motorola surfboard SB5101 modem does not connect after loading Win 7 OS

    I had Win XP 32 bit and have now updated for Win 7 64 bit (I have a 64-bit processor) now my computer does not connect to my modem - Motorola Surfboard SB5101 even if styling check here says it should be OK.  When I try to connect I get this error: failed to connect #651, modem or other reporting device connection error.

    My service provider could not help and said my signal to connect is good.  I loaded the new drivers Vista 64 for my modem as it was the only rider to a 64 bit OS that I could find, in the hope that it would help.  No chance here no more.  Any suggestions?

    I guess that you connect the modem to your computer with a USB cable.  If your modem has an Ethernet output, use it instead.  The Ethernet connection does not require a pilot program and is more reliable than the USB connection.
