How can I stop: 1) scrolling ads/info that remains on the page, even while I scroll down to the bottom. (2) new side tabs that appear at the end of the articles to tease the next articles?
I have two questions. In the past months, some sites there are ads or facebook/twitter links that scroll and remain on the same page that I scroll down. I find distracting moving images and want to stop them. How? I saw another development that I get close to the end of an article, two tabs appear on the left and right of the screen who tease article previous and next. These tabs appear often on the top of the text of the article I'm currently reading, making it difficult to finish the current article. How to stop these tabs?
for 1)
Try using an extension "ad block", as a first step.
Click on > > AMO search for "ad block"
I use this one - https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/ublock-origin/
for 2)
You can try to use this extension - https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/umatrix/ - too complicated for me, I rarely see these stupid teases 'previous' and 'next' and my screen is wide enough so that they do not cover any text I read.

How can I stop yahoo for re-creation as my default home page?
I am operating OSX 10.8.5 and Firefox 26
Recently (without installing new software or extensions) my layout in firefox by default to yahoo homepage. Yahoo has shown also as one of my search engines without having installed me. I removed it and everything was going well for a while. But now instead of show my windows and tabs from last time, it shows just yahoo instead.
It is very annoying, because I keep losing all my pinned tabs. None of the above solution are useful and the problem persists even in safe mode.
This is the troubleshooting info of "Firefox about: support.
There are chances that you have installed a customized version of Firefox optimized for Yahoo? See http://downloads.yahoo.com/firefox/
Yahoo-able versions of Firefox are mentioned in the article remove a toolbar which took in charge your Firefox or the home page search. If you have a (available for Windows and Mac), you need to replace the 'official' version of Mozilla Firefox.
In all cases, you could trash Firefox (remove it from your folder/Applications/dock desktop) and then reinstall Mozilla Firefox by downloading a new copy of mozilla.org - see How to download and install Firefox on Mac. Your Firefox user profile is stored in a separate location - see the profiles article - so your bookmarks, passwords and other user data expected to be retained.

How can I stop high disk activity HARD and blocking of the machine
At startup, the machine takes 2 to 3 minutes before the login screen is available, with HDD coming out of the machine all the time. The Office takes 1.5 minutes to load up. Then quite randomly and especially if I have access to Internet, the HARD drive starts screaming from afar and I get any program I use, indicate "not responding". Similarly, logging on Internet and then check in a site and outside, Yahoo shows "not responding" then comes good, however at that time that the HARD drive is once more trying to get out of the machine with the blocking of the entire system. This condition may last between 1 and 2 hours.
I can't get out of the Internet or Vista and my only recourse is to hold down the button "power on" for 5 seconds, stop the machine. The alternative is to turn the machine on and leave it alone for a few hours, but it is still not guaranteed the high activity of the HARD drive will be start at random. At the time of blocking, the CPU is variable between 1 and 10% with 4 GB of ram running at 96% to 100%.
I am running Windows Vista Home Premium (SP2), on an AMD Athlon (TM) 64 x 2 processor Dual core 5000 + 2.60 GHz, Medion machine with 4.0 GB Ram and 32-bit operating system. The machine is a PC MT7 MED MT469G. The boot drive (C: /) is about 350 GB, with a second backup drive (D: /) about 100 GB and a Data partition (E: /) drive on 400 Gb. I.e. two 350 and 500 GB drives.
The machine becomes practically unusable and I can't stop this frenzied action of HARD drive. I have to be to destroy the HARD drive whenever I turn on. I tried the advice from the experts by disabling regular departures, stopping at various folders, to nothing does not.
I came through all products Windows 95Windows with XP and 2000 and when I bought this computer Medion, with Vista, I have never experience so much time lost to fight with a machine with this huge HARD drive activity and constant locking machine.
I understand, sites that Windows 7 is pretty much the same, God forbid, I will put on my wife's machine and is the reason why I have not upgraded.
Help! Please, how can I get out of this mess?

I'm not sure I understand your disk configuration. You have two physical drives with drive non-system, divided into two partitions?
All other programs are running when this happens outside of the browser?
I would start by Process Explorer to identify the process generating the IO.
http://TechNet.Microsoft.com/en-us/Sysinternals/bb896653
On the file menu, click 'Show details for all processes', and then on the view menu, select the columns to activity e/s of the shoe.
While you are in the view menu, click on "System information" and check how your 4 GB 32-bit Vista can see. It is normally about 3 GB but can be much less with some video cards.
There is more information on the use of Process Explorer here:
You can also use the built in by typing perfmon performance monitor in the box "Search" in the Start Menu.
http://Channel9.msdn.com/events/TechEd/Australia/Tech-Ed-Australia-2011/SVR306
This should help you identify files that are used.
For a more detailed study, you must use Windows Performance Toolkit:
http://msdn.Microsoft.com/en-us/performance/cc825801
http://Channel9.msdn.com/events/build/BUILD2011/HW-59T
Download here: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/dlx/en-us/listdetailsview.aspx?FamilyID=6b6c21d2-2006-4afa-9702-529fa782d63b and select the components you need.
There is a possibility of a hardware problem or the disc is not not in AHCI mode.
I would also look at the antivirus you are using.

How can I stop my scrolling information exceed the header?

Help please, thank you!
Kel
No it's not a problem.
Remember in your panel of layers that your header elements are higher than your content page items.
A good way to prevent this is to create three folders in your layers panel.
1: header
2: content
3: footer
Have all your content in the header in the file header in your layers, content panel in the content, etc..
This way your header content will always be at the top.

I can't access/browsing Netflix, I'm redirected to a login screen. But it seems strange that when I try to navigate around Netflix, I'm still on HTTPS and you load on HTTP.
This problem happens only in the pages of HTTP and not HTTPS pages?
Is it possible that some sort of proxy or security filter modifies the page until it reaches your browser?

How can I stop my online home link take over my home page

Firefox and IE Win have their own settings. What you choose for a

I am aware that this problem started with the upgrade to Firefox 31.0. If I open Firefox and look at a site Web and then close this Web site and Firefox closes its doors. The same also occurs whenever I close the last of a certain number of websites I have already opened. Previously, I could close the last site looked and the process did not close down Firefox, simply gave me my home page.
Type of topic: config in the address bar and press ENTER.
Accept the warning message.browser.tabs.closeWindowWithLastTab = double click to toggle to false

I want my URL/address bar (the space upstairs in the Center) to use the google search when I type in, and I want the bar (the one top-right) research on Wikipedia, when I type in. She had previously worked like that, but suddenly firefox is no longer is allowing me to use different engines in the two areas.
I've tried setting the keyword.url to 'http://www.google.com/search?ie=UTF-8 & oe = UTF - 8 & q =', but this setting is for some reason ignored and fails everything I put on the search bar. If I put the search bar for wikipedia the URL bar uses that, if I put to amazon the URL bar use instead.
As I said, he worked the way I loved yesterday and today it is no longer. I have not modified parameters between yesterday and today that this would lead to.
