I installed Firefox 7, yet everytime I open Firefox the opening page is "You re almost there" invites me to download Firefox 7. Why?
The laptop is running Windows 7.

I saw this question already asked in the forums to update the latest version of Firefox, but I don't need to update the version, I try to download the latest version of Firefox for Windows through Chrome.
I click on the download button on the Mozilla site and I extract the file. At this point, the computer asks me if I want to save the file or run the file. I tried to just run the file, and the computer pops up this message "you may not be the necessary permissions to use all the features of the program you are about to run." You can run this program as a different user or continue to run the program as a gooseberry". The window gives me two options, "Run as a user of cassis" (which closes all when I choose what it) and 'Run as administrator' (which leaves me with a user name and password which are always wrong).
I can not download Firefox and tried a lot of things. I feel that it is a security setting in my computer that needs to be adjusted, but I don't know enough to start to tinker around at random.As in all Forums... Help, please!
One possibility is to open the Mozilla's FTP site in Windows Explorer and download Firefox set up the file in this way.
See "how to download Firefox on a new computer without using Internet Explorer":
Another direct link:
Try to start the computer in Mode safe mode with network support Windows (on the startup screen, press F8) to see if that allows to install Firefox.

everytime I open firefox it opens addons
What can I do
every time when I open firefox or start a new tab opens to addonsDo you mean the you get the topic: addons page in a tab?
You can check the setting of the homepage:
- Tools > Options > general > startup: Homepage
Firefox supports several home pages separated by ' |' symbol (pipe).
You can use the SearchReset extension to reset preferences to default values.
Note that the SearchReset extension runs only once and then uninstalls automatically, so it will not appear on the page "> Firefox Add-ons" (topic: addons).

Whenever I open Firefox, I get another window that opens on the home page. It's almost empty with a few lines at the top of the page and the registration of the user of words. It has happened since Firefox updated on my computer yesterday, even after uninstalling and reinstalling.
That's great! Please make sure you choose the solution so that others can benefit from. Also, it's users like you that make the difference when you report.

Ive tried many things to stop it. Please help and thank you for your time

Do you mean the page modules ordinary (the one that opens when you press Ctrl + Shift + a) or a page for a specific module?
You get the unwanted page when you launch a new window (Ctrl + n)?
If so, which may indicate:
- Your settings for list of two home pages. These items will help to clarify that:
- One of your modules displays the new page.
If the extra page does NOT appear in a new window, could test you using your Firefox desktop icon a second time without closing Firefox? This should launch a new window.
If THE new window has the unwanted page, your shortcut of Firefox can be hacked. You can check by right clicking it > properties > Shortcut tab. The goal for 64-bit Windows 7 should be either not less the following:
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe"
If THE new window does NOT have the unwanted page, Firefox may show a 'one time' page and failing to mention that he showed on the page, so it keeps only once the action at every start. Have you noticed Firefox remember other changes of parameters of the problems? This article has a range of suggestions to address this kind of issue: How to fix preferences that will not save.

I made a mistake by selecting Foxfire as my site 'by default'. I want than Comcast to my main site & my opening page. How can I change my home page on Comcast? Call me at xxx-xxx-xxxx or email: [email protected] to tell me how to remove Foxfire as a primary web. Helen H. Mullane
(personal data removed by the moderator)
First of all, no, we do not support phone (or any free software). It comes to our support site.
If you do not want to have Comcast as your homepage, follow these steps:
- Click the Firefox Orange button in the upper left corner of Firefox, and then click Options.
- In the area of the Home Page, remove everything that is there and www.comcast.net. And then click OK.
It is to change the Home Page, and you can learn more about (including screenshots) to the definition of the home page.
In addition, you need to update Firefox. Please read Firefox updated to the latest version for more information on how to do it.

How can I get Firefox to download a document in Adobe format, rather than the html page?
The PACER site provides copies of documents in format Acrobat pdf. However, when I access a document, it appears in Firefox, rather than Adobe. So, I'm not able to download on Adobe. (I unchecked 'internet' option in Adobe in a manner appropriate, so that it is not instructed to download the document in the browser.) However, Internet Explorer, display and download in Adobe, because he is supposed to do. I called support PACER, but they were unable to help me.
I found the support page that I found via search index 'see or download pdf' very useful.
He brought me to download and install a Schubert | It browser plugin that works very well. It has many options, which is the choice to download or view the pdf file.
The plugin is free for personal or educational use even if you don't find this out until you start using it.

Original title: Windows Explorer has stopped working
My computer is running XP Home Edition Sp3 and using Norton internet security 2011. I recently installed PowerDesk Pro v7.0.1.3and now, the system crashes when you right-click to copy a folder, etc. I read on this forum of a person having a similair problem and being referred to this site offering a patch that seems to not be available:
http://KB.avanquestusa.com/Al/12/1/article.aspx?Aid=4030&Tab=Search&BT=4&r=
Marilyn answers Support Engineer Microsoft's answer also suggested maybe using some registry changes, which I'm not comfortable with because of my limited experience.
Any suggestion would be greatly appreciated pedro147
None of these suggestions to the Microsoft support technician will help you, but they will consume large amounts of your time.
Please post a link to this Marilyn Microsoft engineer answer Support responses involving some registry maybe going to I can see that too.
Older versions of PowerDesk Pro 7.x are known to cause explore crash, so that the sounds on the right.
The current version of PowerDesk Pro is 8.5.
You might be able to get the old version to behave by disabling PowerDesk one shell extensions at a time until when you right-click Explorer no longer crashes. This will leave you with limited functionality of PowerDesk since those afflicted extensions will be disabled, but you should not have these extensions to do anything, you need to make sheets.
I would start with the PowerDesk ZIP shell extension (I already know about this one).
It is a version shortened and changed my notes on the use of ShellExView (since you already think sheets):
Download ShellExView here to see what Explorer extensions you have loaded:
http://www.NirSoft.NET/utils/shexview.html
ShellExView does not install anything on your computer, simply of runs and displays.
After launching ShellExView, under Options, choose "Mark non-Microsoft Extensions" and extensions not Microsoft will be pink, clear, but on some systems which is a difficult color to see, so click on display, choose the columns and move the column Microsoft closer to the top, so you can see on your screen without having to scroll left and right.
Click on the column header for Microsoft sort display (by clicking on the column of Microsoft) then all the non Microsoft extensions are on top and easy to see.
Non-Microsoft extensions would be things you have added (non-Microsoft) and are what you should be suspect.
You can also Google the name of a suspect add-on and see if there is any success on the mistakes of the DEP and what other people have done about it.
For example, you could Google something like:
Explorer XP crashing (you must fill in the name of add your suspect on.) See what kind of search results hits you get and are looking for solutions or situations that sound like yours.
Right click and disable Microsoft no suspicious extensions one at a time take a list so you can enable them again later if you wish.
The result of the change is immediate and no reboot is necessary. Test your failure condition. If the Explorer starts to behave, you will know which extension is the culprit, then you can start to enable them one by one until the Explorer fails again.
Don't forget - disabling the extension does not uninstall the extension - it is just disabled so you can always turn it on again.
Disable them one at a time until your right click on do not generate an error, then restart and test again. You have disabled the last extension would be suspicious. You can then start to reactivate other extensions to zero on the extensions that are causing your accident
If the cause of the accident is a third party application or program, their may be a later version of the program available that solves the problem.
If you find the offending extension that's the problem, please let us know what it is that I can add to my list.

Hello
I have concerns the installation of operating system Windows XP Pro. Until the BONE is in place, he will be the preparation of the system. Here's the step:1. in the Windows XP Setup Wizard, click "Next" to continue.2. in the EULA, select the radio button "I do not accept this agreement" and then click "next".-Dialog shows "that will come out Setup.You will have to run again later to install or upgrade...» »3. click on 'No' to return to the EULA.4. on the same radio button, click "back".-The result is the same as in step 2 (- dialog box displays "it comes out Setup.You will have to run again later to install or upgrade...") »). Is it good? I think he should go back to the installation wizard the same behavior when the selected radio button is "I accept this agreement".I searched on different site for any related topic about this, but it seems that I can't find a. Any idea on this is much appreciated.Thanks in advance!What I understand, you are trying to access the configuration page, so you CAN click on the I agree button that must rely on F8?

I use Cyber duck to download my Muse site and all was well until recently.
It looks good on mobile, iPhone and safari. When I open my site on desktop chromium, it seems fine at first, but then if I click on my home button, it goes back to a previous version, making two pages (home page and the about page).
I emptied my FTP and re downloaded and it's the same thing. only bring my site on Chrome.
I noticed one thing is when the site opens there not/index.html at the end then when I click on the home/index.html page appears again at the end of the url and the previous version.
If anyone has any ideas that would be appreciated.
Here is the site that I speak to you. www.hilltopstudiosbath.co.UK
I wonder if it's just my chrome which is the problem and not the site. Maybe if someone else can check it for me.
Thank you
It is difficult to say if it works or not because we do not know what looks like the old version. If it only happens in Chrome (I guess it's just Chrome on your computer?), then this is probably a caching issue. Press Ctrl / Cmd + Shift + Delete to open the dialog box clear browsing data. You should be able to get away with fair compensation for the image and the file cache. Close Chrome once that you did. It must address issues of the site.
