I reset my homepage to yahoo and now firefox has a pop up that tells me that they are not my home page whenever I open a page
I prefer the yahoo homepage..... so I put my yahoo homepage. now, whenever I open a page, I get a pop up of firefox, telling me that they are not my home page and I need to check the action I want... can we stop this very annoying pop up or do I have to remove firefox itself. ???
What looks like the popup? I think that Yahoo may have a bar in the page content area that encourages to make your Yahoo homepage. However, if it appears outside of the page, and especially if it displays when you visit other sites, it could be caused by an add-on unwanted. Here's an example another user recently published along these lines:
Here's my method of tracking down and cleaning of the bad modules, the air pirates and injectors ad. I know it seems long, but it's not so bad.
(1) open the Control Panel, uninstall a program. After the loading of the list, click on the column heading "installed on" to group infections, I mean additions by date. This can help the undisclosed items bundle smoker who snuck out with some software, you have agreed to install. Beware of everything that you don't recognize / remember, since malware often uses sounding names important or innocent to discourage you remove. Out as much garbage as possible here.
(2) open Firefox page modules using either:
- CTRL + SHIFT + a
- "3-bar" menu button (or tools) > Add-ons
- in the Windows "Run" dialog box, type or paste
firefox.exe "about:addons"
In the left column, click on Plugins. Set essential and unrecognized plugins 'never enable '.
In the left column, click Extensions. Then, in case of doubt, disable (or delete, if possible) not recognized and unwanted extensions. Do not forget that all extensions are optional, none come with Firefox, and you can learn more about them by checking their reviews on the site of the Add - ons.
Often, a link will appear above at least an extension disabled to restart Firefox. You can complete your work on the tab and click one of the links in the last step.
(3) you can search the rest of problems with scanning/cleaning tools listed in our technical support article: Troubleshooting Firefox problems caused by malware. These scanners on request are free and take a long time to run. If they end quickly, especially if they require the payment you have a serious infection. I suggest the specialty forums listed in the article in this case.
Success?

I have "upgraded" to FF5 and now have no refresh or stop icons in the menu bar, are not available in the menu "personalize." How to make a comeback?I'm happy to have helped.
It was something that many users asked when he changed first, and I initially did not know myself that the order of the buttons would make a difference as to if a button or a pair of buttons would be displayed.

Installed the new drive hard and now I get a pop up that says that my windows is not genuine.
I upgraded my hard drive on my Dell Inspiron 1750. Now, I get a pop up that says that my windows is not genuine. But under the control of configuration\systeme and Security\System, it says my windows is activated. It is an OEM with Windows7 system House. Did that clone a new (bigger, 1 TB) hard disk and then install. In addition, windows update does not work now either. Said the service is not running.
You have installed RemoveWAT at some point in the past.
Now we must try to clear up the mess :(
Best way to fix it now (since we do not know what version of RemoveWAT served) is to run WATFix...
Download WATFix - make sure you click the link in the page, not the big shiny buttons! - and use it.
Then post back with another MGADiag report, and we will see what we can do.

Safari and Firefox needs ways to enable/disable/hide (the menu and via shortcuts) tabs, Favorites (bookmarks) bar, (and bar address [which do not have Safari]), so that they are visible to a person who you show your screen not visible on just one full screen. Yes, you can expose a screenshot that excludes one or more of these bars, but it is a nuisance to have to do, and in any case, that still leaves the problem of the bars being visible to other people who show you your screen.
The extension does not hide the toolbars?
On Mac in mode full screen isn't really full screen and don't cache not toolbars like on Windows and Linux.
There are extensions to hide specific toolbars if you can't do via "view > toolbars".

Until recently the small color bar next to the address in each open tab was green for https sites and clear for open sites. The color for most sites https including my Bank is now blue. Some are still green, but most is in blue. Does this mean that sites are be pirated? Not sure? or something else?

Green means 'Extended Validation SSL certificate' and blue means a 'domain SSL certificate.

Can someone tell me why Lightroom cc wants to import my files under a DNG, I used to import as a raw file, it says the files are not recognized, I use a Canon 5 3 and never had the problem before, he said actually the Raw Format is not supported in Lightroom.
Thanks in advance John.
Hi, dj_paige,
I managed to sort it out, the problem was when I used my Kingston card reader to import my images in LR Cc, it would not recognize the file format, so when I thought a little more, tired of importing directly from my 5 d 3, it worked very well, so now I need to find a card reader supports LR CC ,
Thanks for your reply, regards, John.

I changed the hard drive in my laptop because he was dying and move all the files etc on the new hard drive. with the help of a friend of technique.

Now, I can not change the product key and troubleshooting for the network will not work and the folder of photos I have to right click to 'place to open the folder "... I don't want to format and start over as all my work is on the disc.

Can someone please?
