  • I don't know how I have firefox but I not went. Tell me how to remove

    I don't know how this program got on my computer and I read help pages until my eyes are painful. I can't find an answer to my question is simple. I need to get rid of this program. I used internet Explorer since I bought my first computer and I was very satisfied. But since firefox showed all that is so small, I have to squint to read my emails. I use my computer for e-mail and play games, and sometimes I go to sting sites. I don't need to be so complicated. Please help me get rid of this program.

    Absolutely impossible to happen accidentally. Someone else is using your computer. Remove you Firefox like any other program via Control Panel > programs and features (in Windows 7).

    I hope that you do not have another browser - Internet Explorer does not appear in the details of your system.

  • How to configure firefox to open outlook e-mail links in a new tab instead of having this "crush" a tab currently open?

    How to configure firefox to open outlook e-mail links in a new tab instead of having this "crush" a tab currently open? For example, that I have a tab open and consult the information about this. An email comes in via outlook and I want to read a confined link. When I click on the link, it will open in the tab I have currently open. I would like to open it in a new tab.

    You mean Outlook, the standalone version and not the new iteration of Live (live.com) mail to Outlook.

    I think that the default is to open in a new tab in the last active window, but you can check it out here and replace the default value:

    (1) in a new tab, type or paste Subject: config in the address bar and press ENTER. Click on the button promising to be careful.

    (2) in the search above the list box, type or paste link.o and make a pause so that the list is filtered

    (3) double-click the preference browser.link.open_newwindow.override.external and change it to 3 and OK change

    The options are:

    -1 = apply the setting in Options > general > tabs of external links (default)
    3 = open external links in a new tab in the last active window
    2 = open external links in a new window
    1 = open external links in the last active tab replaces the current page

  • Firefox opens in a tiny window, and I want to open full page... How?

    Firefox opens to my homepage as you want, but it's on a window in the upper right corner, about 4 "and 3" high. It's easily slide into a display full size, but I want to open this way, as it did before I updated to the version of Firefox yesterday. I find no immediately obvious option to set the size of this opening by default. How can I do this? Also, I have now a problem with Flash crashing that I didn't before the update. How to fix this?

    Thanks for the heads up, Cor - el.

  • I am new to this. I do not understand what is meant by making Firefox my "default browser". I use gmail, and I have to open a session, each time I want to use the mail?

    I don't even know if there is an interaction between Firefox and gmail. I know it's a pain every time that I want to use the mail, I have to open a session. I didn't connect with Internet Explorer. My goal here is to take advantage of Firefox are reached do not SPAM etc. Where and how can I set up Firefox as my default browser, and what are the other benefits? Keep it simple, guys, I'm not the sharpest knife in the drawer.

    The "default browser" is that Windows uses to open links from other applications or the desktop shortcuts. If a browser is designated as the default does not affect the operation of pages web in the browser.

    Sites recognized generally that you are still connected by setting a cookie. When you install Firefox, it is configured to receive and fix these cookies. However, there are many ways for the cookies to be deleted, including:

    • Settings on the Privacy tab of the Options dialog box such as whether you want to accept cookies and how long they stay - privacy, and-not-track browsing history settings
    • Option erasure of history to the judgment (even if the function is called history of compensation, there are a few 10 or more categories of data, you can choose individually delete or keep)
    • Using the incognito feature - cookies last only as long as the camera
    • The modules focus on the protection of personal information that change the way are managed cookies - your system data does not display of these
    • External security, privacy or system cleanup software

    In your case, your "more details of the system" shows that you have set Firefox automatically start in private browsing mode. In this configuration, Firefox does not keep cookies between sessions, as long as the sites Web is concerned, the next time you visit you are a foreigner. It could invoke is if you or someone else with access to your computer went in the Privacy Options and value Firefox "never remember history".

    You should probably disable automatic private browsing, unless you can find an add-on to store cookies that you want to store between private sessions.
