I'm being invited to update Firefox, but after consultation with the details, I conclude that it can interfere with my Windows XP. How can I stop the guests?

• KB955759 does not appear when I check the updates manually, but it appears with the yellow shield after you have enabled the automatic updates.

  original title: Windows Update acts confused - kb955759 does not appear when I check the updates manually, but it appears with the yellow shield after you have enabled the automatic updates.

  I just reset my CMOS settings, writing zeros for my hard drive, repartitioned, reformatted and used the recovery cd Gateway system to get my computer to Windows 98se - factory settings, except at the beginning of the recovery of the system, when it says "press any key for advanced options," I pressed a key and then I unchecked all the default (3rd party) applications including Norton and left only 2 checked: "Updated USB Hub" and "Windows Shutdown Supplement," while nothing has been installed, leaving only win98.
   
  Then I used my disc XP Home (SP2) update.  I, immediately after the upgrade to Windows XP, installed "Office XP with Frontpage, Developer Edition", then Norton 2012 before never connect to the internet.
  Then, I connected to the internet and continuously update of Norton, before ever hitting the Windows Update page. The first thing I did then was to activate Windows, and then activate the office.
  Then I hit the update of Windows "button" that says "get all your updates in one place... upgraded"Microsoft Update".  I, then, just kept hitting the page update and restart, until I find the SP3.  Then, I took a break, until the next day.
   
  I have an ADSL broadband, with a Linksys EtherFast PCI card.
   
  Then I got SP3, which installed without any problems.
  So I just kept "microsoft continuous update" manually (and reboot), until there is no more updates - EXCEPT, I always uncheck Windows Malicious Software Removal Tool - which was the only screening at the final stop for the night.  I think that I ticked the box "don't ask me about this update".
   
  Then, in the morning, after you have enabled automatic updates, I noticed the yellow shield - Windows security icon (or whatever it's called), so I clicked on it and checked it was tellimg me was available [when I checked "Custom Install (advanced users)"].  What showed was 1 update - 955759 KB.
   
  After the problem, already at the reformat (months and months), see the yellow shield telling me there are updates available, which were already installed (before rebooting), I checked manually on the internet with IE 8, pressing alt, "T", "U".  There is no updated list.  Then I checked through my history of update (twice), and KB955759 had not been installed.
   
  My update setting is to let windows download ('important') updates, but let me choose when to install them.
   
   
   
  What is the right - Windows Update (NO update important reporting) Site, or the yellow shield (reports [a] kb955759 [update])?
   
  I can not yet confirm he is supposed to be an update for XP home kb955759, because I was unable to locate any detailed documentation on this 'thing' that protect the yellow safety seems to think is a significant update.

  Just for the heck of it, I have disabled the automatic updates, cleared my browser cache, checked manually, updates from microsoft (windows) and found none (with the exception of software malware removal tool windows [which I have not installed]).  Then, I turned the automatic updates on, and without even being connected to the internet, the yellow shield popped up with the kb955759 "update"...

  Repost...

  1. If you open Internet Explore (only!) to http://windowsupdate.microsoft.com and run a CUSTOM scan, KB955759 appears in results?... If so, you manage to install it and/or security updates available?

  2 after no. 1 above [<>], is the 'yellow shield' icon appears in the Notification area (on the left of your clock)?  .. and if yes, by clicking on the 'yellow shield' icon tells you that KB955759 or any other updates is ready-to-be-installed?  .. .and if so, you manage to install it?

  3 after doing 1 # & #2 above [<>], is KB955759 or any other updates offered as a ready-to-install update when you go off your computer?  .. .and if so, you manage to install it?

  ... I guess that clearing the browser cache does not erase 'downloaded' updates.

  Nope. If you want to clear the queue of the update...

  OPTION A:

  1. stop the automatic updates service:

  Start > run > (type or copy/paste) services.msc > click OK
  Double-click automatic updates > click stop
  (Stopping the service will take a moment)

  2 remove the contents of the download folder:

  Start > run > (type or copy/paste) %windir%\SoftwareDistribution > click OK
  
  Open the download folder and delete its content
  Close the window.

  3. start the automatic updates service:

  Start > run > (type or copy/paste) services.msc > click OK
  Double-click automatic updates > click Start
  (Starting the service will take a moment)

  OPTION B:

  1. open Internet Explorer (only!) to http://support.microsoft.com/kb/910336 [don't know the titles, etc..]

  2. make disappear/close the Troubleshooter automatically pop up.

  If you get a pop-up message asking to update Firefox or plugins then this message is probably a scam and you should never respond to such reporting to avoid being infected by malware.

  • Don't update Firefox via "> about" or by downloading and installing Firefox from Mozilla and server never using a popup or a link on a web page.
  • Plugins should be updated only through the plugin itself, or by visiting the home page of the plugin.

• BlackBerry 10 same after upgrade to 10.3.1 I'm always being invited to update the operating system

  Model - Q5.

  OK, so after much trouble I took to remove some Apps etc to make room for my Q5 upgrade to version 10.3.1.2243, I finally managed in the upgrade of the phone. Shortly after, just at the moment where I thought I was ready, I started to receive upgrade notifications again and this time I was prompted to release an another 1.7 GB of my phone, which is practically impossible. The updated version that I'm being invited to space costs for is 10.3.1.1565.

  When I connect through Blackberry link, it shows my software as an update with the version 10.3.1.1565 installed. Can someone please tell me what's going on, because there is no way I can create an extra 1.7 GB of space for a new update.

  Screenshots of the issue are attached for your reference.

  Thanks in advance.

  

  

  

  I suggest that you close the update for now.

  Do a restart: with the phone smart BlackBerry power on, press on and press and hold the power button on top about 20-30 seconds, ignore the 3-2-1 timer and hold the button until the screen goes black and you see the red LED.
  or

  There are security software such as Avast and Kaspersky that intercepts secure connections and sends its own certificate.

  If you have Avast then try disabling the analysis of HTTPS in the Web Shield, Avast.

  • https://Forum.avast.com/index.php?topic=176073.0

  If you cannot inspect the certificate by "I understand the risks", then try this:

  Open the "Add Security Exception" this URL chrome by pasting into the address bar of Firefox and check the certificate:

  • chrome://pippki/content/exceptionDialog.XUL

  In the field of location of this window, type or paste the URL of the Web site.

  • retrieve the certificate via the button 'Get certificate '.
  • Click on the "view..." button. "to inspect the certificate in the certificate display

  You can check details such as the issuer and the certificate chain in the Details tab of the certificate display.
  Check which is the issuer of the certificate.
  If necessary, you can attach a screenshot that shows the display of the certificate.

• Why are some emails not to load with Firefox, but do it with Patrick and IE?

  I have an email account with Yahoo.com and I get my mail on a desktop W8.1 PC and an iPad. The Bureau uses Firefox as the browser 41.0.2; the iPad uses Safari.

  Use the office, I find that many (but not all) of the messages that I see in the list of incoming messages fail to display, i.e. they fail to complete the download after I click on them. If I click on any of these stray messages on the iPad, however, it loads immediately.

  If I close Firefox on the desktop and go to IE and then access the e-mail account Yahoo, the stray message < > is displayed.

  I conclude that the problem was with Firefox, right? Is someone can you please tell me how I can fix this bug so that I can download all my incoming messages on the desktop?

  I want to delete, and then reload Firefox to see if that fixes the problem. Can someone please tell me how to save and restore all my favorites in the process?

  Thank you.

• Mozilla said "your system does not meet the requirements to run Firefox ' but when I check the conditions, my system meets all.

  I am using windows 7 on my hp laptop. When I try to update I get a message saying that I must have at least windows XP. Is there something else blocking my update? I tried the two update a download of the latest version. My current firefox is 13.0.1

  Hi, please, do a right-click on the firefox icon, go to properties > compatibility, and make sure that firefox is not configured to run in compatibility mode (atm your useragent reports that you run windows 2000).
  Thereafter, it should be possible to update.

  Since your profile also show signs of unwanted software on your system, please run a full scan of your system with security tools like the free version of malwarebytes & adwcleaner, which are specialized in the adware and browser hijackers.
