Hi, I have D/L'd 23 FF but inadvertently, THAT D/L from had a 3rd party, dalesearch FF I stripped took over them and run my malware how do I get rid of him. Thank you
I downloaded 23 FF but inadvertently to a 3rd party, FF has been adopted by the so-called Dalesearch, which apparently is malware, I stripped out FF23 ran my anti malware program and re downloaded FF23 from the Mozilla site, everything works now, but Dalesearch is always in my search engine, but not active. I can crush it and everything is ok. Can someone tell me how to completely get rid of this because it is a bit worrying. I can find my way around a computer but I'm not a expert please not complicated answers.
Thanks a lot Pete30
Sometimes a problem with Firefox can be a result of malware installed on your computer, you may not be aware of.
You can try these free programs to search for malicious software that work with your existing anti-virus software:
- Microsoft safety scanner
- MalwareBytes' Anti-Malware
- TDSSKiller - AntiRootkit utility
- Hitman Pro
- ESET Online Scanner
Microsoft Security Essentials is a good permanent antivirus for Windows 7/Vista/XP, if you do not already have one.
More information can be found in the article troubleshooting Firefox problems caused by malware .

Always download Firefox from mozilla.org

I put a theme on igoogle - but it seems now to be integrated into my firefox because it is behind the url box, behind the bar at the bottom of the page and bookmark tab. How can I get rid of him. I always change themes, but they remain on the google page, as they should. This has nothing to do with my screen saver and my fund screens - they are different and ok - seems to be stuck in Firefox in particular.

This message is frequesntly most associated with a Microsoft Exchange Server that is also running an SMTP virtual server, what I read. This means that the server does not like how big the stream of SMTP session is.

I uninstalled OtShot and it reappears. How can I get rid of him?
I went into Control Panel and uninstalled OtShot. The next time that I turned on my computer the red heart appears in the toolbar and I got a message telling me that the skin could not be loaded, and then asked me if I wanted to import my contacts from Outlook. How to stop? Thank you
Hi SherryRich,
I recommend that you contact OtShot support because they are experts in your field of investigation and would be in a better position to answer your concerns.

Hello, please go to firefox > addons > extensions and remove any suspicious entries (toolbars, the things that you have not installed intentionally, I don't know what purpose they serve, etc.).
also go to Control Panel / programs and remove all toolbars or potentially unwanted software from there.
Finally, run a full scan of your system with security tools like the free version of malwarebytes & adwcleaner.Remove a toolbar that has supported your Firefox or the homepage search

Having been on my computer for hours very well, I left to pick up my girls from school, and my window was open to yahoo. When I came back, the computer was off. I tried to turn it back on and it wouldn't do anything. the fire came, but it never came. After you play with it for a bit, I finally managed to do turn it on, but it does nothing else. I can't get into all programs and I can't connect to the internet. After a few fault-finding with cox for more than an hour, they determined that I have a virus.

I have Acrobat professional 9. I moved it to my new computer Windows 10. Whenever I have printed on a home printer it ask again me if I want to improve and I only have 12 days to do it. How can I get rid of him. I have a valid license. What is the cost and benefits, the upgrade to Acrobat 9 professional to the latest version (I think it's X)
No, X is not the last. In fact, X, as 9 is now unsupported. After X XI, after that XI was DC. DC is the current version. No upgrade price from 9 more, unfortunately. You can subscribe to DC, and this is recommended because it gets new features faster and includes future updates (probably will be necessary as Microsoft moves to Windows 10 edition when they feel like it, instead of waiting for Windows 11/12 etc..)
