Firefox will always be a way course surf the web using a Windows XP computer after that leaves Microsoft support Windows XP?

Windows XP is still my favorite operating system, but Microsoft will give up support in the coming days. If I understand correctly, shortly after which using Windows Internet Explorer to surf the web on a computer running Windows XP (or can) make the computer vulnerable to piracy. It will be the same for the use of Mozilla Firefox on a computer that is running Windows XP?
I think I saw an ad for Google Chrome with that they would continue to support the browser for use on a Windows XP computer. I think that Google said they would keep releasing patches to secure the Chrome. Can anyone confirm that and more importantly, is Mozilla Firefox secure? Also, should I uninstall Internet Explorer on my Windows XP computer when leaving Microsoft support?

Note - I am posting this with a newer computer that works under Windows 7 64-bit.

Firefox will continue to work with Windows XP. At best, in the near future, I could see the required configuration to encountered to Windows XP with Service Pack 3 (obligation is SP2 for now). Security in Firefox patches are the same, regardless of the version of Windows you are using.

Keep in mind that without security updates, the operating system itself will be precarious. What browser and software security that you use will not change.

Internet Explorer is a component of the system, and you should not attempt to remove it in Windows Vista and lower. From Windows 7, there's a way of kind of uninstall from the control panel.

  • Then I can surf the web on the phone with Verizon?

    I waited for the iPhone 6 out hoping I can surf the web while talking on the phone. This weekend I had a new 6s and I can't do that.

    When the 6 came out, I swear I've read somewhere (but of course can't find it now) that it is now enabled if you have Verizon as your carrier. I think that Verizon has been the only person who was not what allows with the iPhone for some reason any (probably) ridiculous.

    I CAN do it over WiFi but not LTE. I want to be able to leave my house and I can do that.

    Before I called Verizon and give them *, I thought to double check here so I have plenty of info to yell at them with if I'm right.

    If someone has a link to the info, I would be happy as well.

    Thank you guys!

    You must confirm with Verizon you have VoLTE (voice over LTE) enabled on your account. Then go to settings > phone > turn on LTE and make sure that it is set to voice & data. Then, while you're on the LTE network, you will be able to talk on the phone and use data at the same time.

  • How can I get rid of a message asking to £100 while surfing the web?

    How can I get rid of a message asking to £100 while surfing the web?

    It's a pop-up. You will need to clear your history of navigation via settings > Safari > clear the history and data from the Web site.

    Since this is a pop up you can just avoid going on the site that caused it uh... pop up! That or just keep delete your history when it arrives.

  • Is there a way to increase the text size in Windows 8 applications?

    Is there a way to increase the text size in Windows 8 applications?

    I find the way to text size too small in most news reader applications.  Looks like you should be able to increase or decrease the text size the same thing you do in a browser using CTRL + or CTRL-, or your mouse wheel.

    You can increase the size of the text on the desktop, but it doesn't have any effect on the subway, or whatever you call it today.

    Probably, there should be a setting to increase the size of the text under settings of PC!

    IMO, I would probably find a lot of people out there wouldn't buy a W8 Tablet since the text is to small to read!  This has fixed as soon as POSSIBLE!

    Edit: I noticed that a lot of Apps is updated to help with this problem.  Unfortunately not on the main screen of App, if you select an item to read the improvement will become visible or selectable.

    Hello

    On the start screen simply type the word "police" and select the filter settings on the right.  You should see an option 'Make text and other items more or less '.  Click on that and adjust the text or at the desired size.

    -Curt

    These instructions don't change the DPI of the screen ratio when it is in the classic user of Windows interface. The new interface Windows username however does not change when this setting is changed (which, in itself, is rather unfortunate).

    The only way to change the font size of Windows apps Store is as follows:

    1. click on the Start button to get the new user of Windows interface

    2 start typing 'police' (without the quotes)

    3. click on "settings".

    4. click on "enlarge everything on your screen; This opens the settings of PC (which is different from the classic Configuration screen)

    5. set "Enlarge everything on your screen" on it.

    Personally, I still find it too small for a lot of apps, but it's a small improvement on the default settings.

  • Firefox will crash/freeze constantly and reset to the default values

    For the last few weeks, I had a lot of problems with Firefox crashing. Whenever I try to open a new tab or load a web page, it will freeze. Sometimes, it's only for a few minutes, while other times it lasts up to an hour, and I have no choice but to close the program using the Task Manager, as any attempt to close normally fail. Is most common in the first few minutes after I run Firefox, and the program has been slow on this subject for a while, but usable after waiting a few minutes to load completely. As I said well that during the last weeks it has completely been lock up and crash when it happens, and it continues to occur after I have already loaded web pages and try to open new ones.

    I tried a complete new installation, and the problem has been resolved for a few days, however, after a few days without access to the internet and try to connect again, the problem is even worse than before. Now, from time to time my Firefox resets the default settings completely, dredging of my page "New tab" pinned tabs, as well as remove any topic, I asked.

    This parasite quickly made Firefox unusable for me, which makes me very angry that I much prefer it to Google Chrome. While I don't know that it would be useful to discern the question, here is also a list of all the extensions I have installed as well as the plugins that I have and that are still active, (with all my other plugins be disabled or 'request activation'). With the exception of "Adblock Edge", I had all the extensions installed for several months with no problems. "Adblock Edge" itself I only installed after uninstalling and reinstalling Firefox to try to solve my problem. My current version of Firefox is 35.

    Extensions:

    Edge of Adblock 2.1.7
    DownloadHelper 4.9.24
    0.1.7.3 private tab
    Adblock Plus 2.6.7

    Plug-Ins:

    Shockwave Flash 16.0.0.296
    Unity Player 4.6.1.51269

    Make a check of malware with several malware scanning of programs on the Windows computer.
    Please scan with all programs, because each program detects a different malicious program.
    All of these programs have free versions.

    Make sure that you update each program to get the latest version of their databases before scanning.

    Alternatively, you can write a check for an infection rootkit TDSSKiller.

  • Firefox will not page load unless I move the coursor

    I use a samsung NC10 and set firefox to update yesterday, since then no internet pages will load, unless I'm constantly moving the cursor with the touchpad. IE seems to work very well.

    This is particularly a problem with the video streaming (e.g. 4od), sound stays on but the pictures freeze until I have move the cursor again

    I hope you can help

    Start Firefox in Firefox to solve the issues in Safe Mode to check if one of the Add-ons is the cause of the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Modules > themes).

    • Makes no changes on the start safe mode window.

    See:

    If this does not work in mode without failure, then disable all extensions and then try to find out who is the cause by allowing both the problem reappears.

    • Choose "Disable all add-ons" on issues to troubleshoot Firefox in Safe Mode to set window to disable all extensions.
    • Close and restart Firefox after each change through "file > exit ' (Mac: ' Firefox > leave";) Linux: "file > exit ')
  • When you open a PDF saved on my computer, Firefox will open several tabs for all of the PDF files I have in a folder. Why?

    Recently, I tried to open some files in Adobe to view on my company computer. They have been recorded on my shared drive companies, and everyone seems to be able to open the files very well. When I try to open the files the program proceeds to open Firefox and wonder through the internet, if I want to download the file. At the beginning it wasn't a problem, because it was just a minor inconvenience. So today, I was working in a folder containing several files PDF (about 125 to express my frustration) and when I click on a file to open it, Adobe proceeded to open all PDF files in the folder. This means that each file opened a new tab in Firefox and proceeded to ask me if I wanted to download it. As I hope you can tell, I quickly became frustrated because I wanted only one file and it would not stop opening new tabs to ask me the same question 125 times. The only way to stop it was to open the Task Manager and go forward to force Firefox altogether.

    I tried to update the program on my computer (it was already up to date), I tried to update the plugin Firefox (it was already up to date) to adobe, I tried the repair Adobe Reader Installation (it doesn't make a difference), and I searched the internet for information about the problem (I was not successful in finding something that relates). According to me, the only thing that I did is to uninstall and reinstall the program on my computer, something I do not want to make I already said that it is a company computer.

    If there is someone who can help me solve this problem, I would be very grateful. Thank you for your time.

    Then, you need Adobe Reader, the default application to open PDFs, instead of FireFox. I think that FireFox just started doing this, and it is causing some confusion.

    As well as the normal way of Windows to change the default application, which is not also known as it should be, you should be able to use Adobe Reader. In Edit > Preferences in the General section and see if there is a button "select default PDF Manager."

  • I want to get rid of notification downloads. I won't use Firefox if I can't get rid of the pesky "downloads notification window" popping up all the time. What a pain in the browser!

    The 'notification of downloads window' keeps popping up. I have no use for it either. If I can't get rid of it, I will stop using Firefox as my browser.

    Hi hkivhk,

    Ask yourself if you can disable the downloads window? It's actually pretty easy. Just go to Tools > Options > general. If you have the Firefox menu, simply press Alt to temporarily activate the menu bar.

    You can find more information in the following article Starter , homepage, tabs and download settings.

    Hope this helps!
