How to stop an add-on which wants to move?
I'll answer my own question, because I found the solution and I wanted to share with other users. I have a program that wants to install an add-on (a toolbar in this case). Whenever I run Firefox, it opens a tab that says "another program would change Firefox". My choices are to install or do not allow installation. However, if I do not allow installation, he comes back the next time I start Firefox. It's really frustrating.
Okay, so here's my solution. I went to the Manager of modules and selected Plug-Ins. I found the program who wanted to install the toolbar on the list, so I changed its framework 'never enable '.

How to stop adware Add-ons to autodownloading and allow
Lately, I noticed that in my modules I get advertising software that will download automatically on my list of Add-ons and then turn on itself. I've got adblock to the top, but these advertising modules seem to be able to get around that and even double my window and try to make a lot of tab ads, or become an alert false windows on the browser page everything.
I'm going in and disable/remove as they add on (it's usually a week), but I would come down to the bottom of how they add to my Firefox profile. I'm not completely disable add-ons because I have some that I use.
Add-ons - hidden become visible if start you Firefox in Mode safe.
You can start Firefox in Safe Mode by holding down the shift/Options key.

How to stop flash add link 'hit zone' at the beginning of the animation?
Hi I created a short animation in Flash CS4 that has a button with a link URL. the button appears on chassis 217, and on this image, I have added the following action script:
button.addEventListener (MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, mouseDownHandler);
function mouseDownHandler(event:MouseEvent):void {}
navigateToURL (new URLRequest ("http://www.nickis40.com/main/main.html"));
}
However, the 'hit' for the button box appears from frame 1 of the animation. is it possible to enter into the affected area to start when the button appears?
Thank you
Nick
You can try setting the button mouseEnabled property to false frame 1 (button... mouseEnabled = false ;) and then stand up for later.

How to stop a search for a website that I decided that I don't want?
When I changed my mind on a site that Firefox has already begun to look for, how to stop the process?
Firefox 4 and later versions use a combined Stop/Reload/Go button that is placed at the right end of the address bar. During the process of loading page it shows as a stop button and once the charging button is replaced by a reload button. If you type in the address bar this button would then become a button go. If Firefox takes on a site and you want more, you can press the Stop button and then the load should stop.
