Lately my default search engine changed to engines such as Globososo or Bing. I change it back to Google, but it continues to change automatically to this unusual search engines. I want to block Google, which is my favorite search engine.
Please, help me.

Hello

Try Firefox Safe mode to see if the problem goes away. Firefox Safe mode is a troubleshooting mode that temporarily disables hardware acceleration, restores some settings and disables add-ons (extensions and themes).

If Firefox is open, you can restart Firefox Safe mode in the Help menu:

  • Click the menu button

    click Help

    then select restart with disabled modules.

If Firefox does not work, you can start Firefox in Mode safe as follows:

  • On Windows: Hold down the SHIFT key when you open the desktop Firefox or shortcut in the start menu.
  • On Mac: Hold the option key during the startup of Firefox.
  • On Linux: Exit Firefox, go to your Terminal and run firefox-safe-mode
    (you may need to specify the installation path of Firefox for example/usr/lib/firefox)

When the Firefox Safe Mode window appears, select "start mode safe."

If the problem is not present in Firefox Safe Mode, your problem is probably caused by an extension, theme or hardware acceleration. Please follow the steps described in the section Troubleshooting extensions, themes and problems of hardware acceleration to resolve common Firefox problems to find the cause.

To exit safe mode of Firefox, simply close Firefox and wait a few seconds before you open Firefox for normal use again.

If this does not help, you can try these free programs to search for malicious software that work with your existing anti-virus software:

Microsoft Security Essentials is a good permanent antivirus for Windows 7/Vista/XP, if you do not already have one. Windows 8 already has integrated antivirus.

    How can I stop Windows Search to steal the focus on the text input area?

    I can type about three characters maximum and then results focus, and I have to click with the mouse to the area of searching at the end.

    For example - I want to get "Img1.bak".

    I type 'I' "m" and then I'm whisked away and the 'g', I typed just takes me to the "great songs by Imogen Heap.txt" or what is the first result starting with g.

    I have to reselect the text box and add a letter or two at a time to get what I need. Very frustrating.

  • How can I remove the search engine on my page in new tabs?

    Hello

    a year or two ago I spent hours trying to find an answer to this question and I managed to do it, but unfortunately a few weeks back I had an unexpected data loss, and I'm unable to find a solution to my problem more.

    By 'on my new tabs page search engine', I mean the dialog box with the choice search engine that did not exist in the previous version of FireFox. I want to not go. Not changed Yahoo, Bing or anything else - just.

    If I remember, the solution was to go to about: config and change the settings for those who would make the thing not appear at all (rather that remove entirely), but if you know how to do so that he went not only visually, but also officially, I'm obviously very well with this solution too.

    Hi, you are using an older version of Firefox, which can compromise your security. Update to 41.0.1, open the 3-bar menu > help (question mark below on the right) > on Firefox.

    After that, here's some additional information for reference: you can change the number of tiles on the page new tab in zoom in or back (Ctrl and + key, or Ctrl and - key).

    You can also keep the same zoom setting when a new tab is clicked: Type Subject: config in the address bar, press ENTER, accept the warning, scroll to browser.newtab.preload and double-click on it to change the 'value' of true to False.

    It is also possible about: config to change the maximum number of tiles, scrolling to the browser.newtabpage.columns (or Rows), then right-click > modify to set a new number of 'value '. - Editor of Configuration of Firefox.

    However, given that you want to remove the search box in the new page tab, I suggest you try the add-on New tab tools.

    If your question is resolved by this or another answer, please take a minute to let us know. Thank you.

  • How can I remove the search engines grouped?

    I can't delete or disable the search engines related to companies who commit serious violations of human rights through the menu settings of Firefox for Android. What are my other options? Firefox has become literally offensive. Alternatively, what are some free free browsers that do not force on me?

    Sorry to read that you strongly against related companies with our search engine providers pre-established grouped. There is currently no way to disable each individually, but we are planning and explore for a future version. In the meantime, if you don't like the provider, do not search with it.

  • How can I stop my font size to change?

    Hi all

    I use pdf on my tablet to read ebooks and every time I turn a page changes the font size.  I don't see an icon to choose a font size.  I can find one to add text and highlights and if I want to read 1 continuous page, etc., but nowhere at all to set a font size to fit my view.

    I hope someone can help,

    Bravo and thank you

    Unfortunately, you can not change the size of the font of the text in a PDF document. However, you can zoom in/out of the document based on your condition. You can do this by double tap or pinch gesture.
