• When you open a Word document downloaded, hundreds of tabs begin opening in Firefox. How can I stop this happening?

  I just installed Office 2007 on my computer and downloaded some documents on the internet. When I try to open Firefox becomes crazy and opens the tabs of the browser faster that I can close them, with no sign of stopping. How can I stop what is happening and have access to the downloads? Any help much appreciated!

  OK, solved. It's not Firefox, it's Windows. Somehow, it had been changed to open Word documents as browsers. I had my suspicions that it wasn't Firefox as Word documents to open in form of tabs in the browser even if Firefox is not running. The only way to open a Word doc was if it was already on the hard drive.

  For someone who has a similar problem, it's how to correct:

  Open my computer.
  On the Tools menu, click Folder Options.
  Click the File Types tab.
  In the registered file types list, click the file that you are trying to open. In my case, it was the doc files. In the list this type of file has been shown by a Firefox icon, indicating that what was used to open the file.
  Under the list of registered file types scroll details for each file type are displayed, with an option for "opens with:
  Click Edit to the right of the present and choose the program to use in the future. Click OK and close the dialog box file types. This should solve the problem.

• How can I stop including windows xp update?

  Hi friends,

  How can I stop including windows XP update? Because I need to stop the update audio driver Conexant HD, if this update install in my laptop, then leave my audio device is stop working. Does anyone know how to block a specific update while

  by allowing automatic updates to function normally?

  Thank you and best regards,

  Celine Annem

  Updates of pilot - which you should never accept Windows Update (for XP) - are "optional" and do not install automatically.

  You can also set Windows Update to download but not install updates (until you look over and decide which ones to install) or to inform you that updates are available.  See http://support.microsoft.com/kb/306525/en-us

  And if you don't want to be constantly offered a particular optional update, simply check the box for ": hide this update" (or "don't show me this update again") - http://z8.invisionfree.com/ComputerHelp/index.php?showtopic=676

• Since the update to El Capitan, during the scrolling of the screen guard snapping back to the top of the screen. How can I stop this?

  Since the update to El Capitan, during the scrolling of the screen guard snapping back to the top of the Web page. How can I stop this?

  Please read this message before doing anything.

  This procedure is a diagnostic test. It is unlikely to solve your problem. Don't be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.

  The test is intended to determine if the problem is caused by a third-party software that loads automatically at startup or logon, by a device, by a police conflict or corruption of system files or some system caches.

  Disconnect all devices wired except those required to test and remove all the expansion cards from secondary market, as appropriate. Start in safe mode and log on to the account of the problem.

  Note: If FileVault is enabled in OS X 10.9 or an earlier version, or if a firmware password is defined, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can not do this. Ask for additional instructions.

  Safe mode is much slower to boot and run as normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things work at all, including an audio output and a Wi - Fi connection on some models. The next normal boot can also be a bit slow.

  The login screen is displayed even if you usually connect automatically. You need your password to log on. If you have forgotten the password, you will have to reset it before you begin.

  Test in safe mode. Same problem?

  After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and make sure you always have the problem. View the results of the test.
