I use Windows XP. Lately, when I run Firefox, my Zone Alarm a / v flags a virus. Latest is 'Gfy0WgmsADm.dll '.
This virus is usually marked by Zone Alarm as "treated on reboot.
First of all, to see if there is a real problem.
Update all your protection programs.
More information can be found in the article troubleshooting Firefox problems caused by malware .
Start Firefox in Safe Mode {web link} by holding down the < SHIFT (Mac Options) > key and then from Firefox. Is always the problem?

This problem started about two weeks ago.
Check that you are not Firefox running as administrator.
Right click on the desktop Firefox shortcut and choose "Properties".
Make sure that all items are disabled in the tab "Compatibility" in the Properties window.
- Privilege level: "Run this program as Administrator" should not be selected
- "Run this program in compatibility mode for:" must not be selected
Also check the firefox.exe program properties in the Firefox program directory.

Dear all,
Firefox crashes when I try to play flash videos from any website, but when I run firefox as administrator, it works very well. (but Google Chrome, Opera & I.E9 video parts without administrator.) I use Windows 7 & Firefox 7.0.1. Help, please.One possible cause is security software (firewall) that blocks or limits Firefox or plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after the detection of changes (update) for the Firefox program.
Delete all rules for Firefox in the list of permissions in the firewall and leave your firewall again ask permission to get full unlimited access to the internet for Firefox and the plugin-container and the update process.

When I run firefox v42 mac, the Preferences tab load as well
When I run Firefox version Mac 42 on Mountain Lion, my homepage loads perfectly, but another 'Préférences' tab always seems to load as well. How can I stop this other tab from loading? Thank you, Ken.
Hi Ken, one of the possible reasons are if the preferences page has been added as a second 'Home tab' in which case it will be displayed in each new window (Cmd + n) and every time that you click the Home button.
To verify that you can use the preferences, the general Board, the section to start page, as described in this article: start-up, homepage, tabs and download settings.
In the area of the Home Page, look for a vertical bar separating two addresses of character. A simple example with short URLS:
https://www.mozilla.org/|about:preferences
The bar certainly can be hard to spot with long URLs, but when you find it, delete everything to the right of the bar, then the bar itself (I suggest to remove the last bar so things don't accidentally get it together).

I update firefox from version 7 to version 8, now when I run firefox every time it itself open the Web "to start with firefox", in firefox options I select the "show a blank page" but his does not work. I use firefox on windows XP - SP2.
Try to restart Firefox, the time of a page (s) after the beginning of a new version should disappear. In fact this last time with 8.0 they did not come to the top for me.
If it works then raise Subject: config and insert the url of the page into the filter. Right-click on anything that appears and use "Reset".

When I run Firefox, it opens a tab hidden in addition to any home page I put.
When I run Firefox by clicking on the icon in my toolbar Quick Start on wallpaper, it will open in any window, I put on the general tab of the menu options. But, there is an icon in the upper left corner of Firefox, if I click on it it shows this cartoon "http://images.dailykos.com/images/163050/lightbox/9-6-strip-KOS.png?1441645357."
It is a cartoon that I looked at a few days ago.
If I close the open tab by clicking on the x.
the cartoon appears. I cannot delete it, do not know where it is registered, but it disappears when I close Firefox itself.
It's all on a computer still under XP so what counts.
I searched a file "user.js" on C: but not here.Maybe unrelated, but I can't delete unwanted Add-ins and extensions either.
It's weird.
What do you see if you right click on this icon?

When I launch Firefox normally it goes right to my Google page, but recently when I run Firefox I get a message indicating that Google.com is a unreliable site. I get this message for all engines of search, Google, Bing, Yahoo, etc. How can I solve this problem?
You run Kaspersky, correct? If you use the SSL scanning feature, Firefox must be put in place to approve the present Kaspersky false certificate to decrypt your secure connections. If you used the discount during the last update function - for example, Firefox says it's a bad performance and offers to restore some default settings - you have to do it again the installer of Kaspersky/Firefox.

I use Windows XP. I've recently updated to the latest Firefox. 'Stumbleupon' allows you to load, now a warning informs me that the "script" will not charge. can I fix? As I do not use 'Stumbleupon' anyway, how can I remove the option. I looked in the Control Panel Add/Remove and it isn't here. Thank you very much.
- Click on "Tools" then "Add-ons".
- When the add-on screen, click on "Extensions".
- You can remove Stumbleupon here, but don't forget to restart Firefox
Hope this helps

I am compiling my football teams game film. I created a dvd using Windows DVD Maker. Each game is a single video file to AVI format. When I preview the video, no problem. After having carved, (2 trials) when I watch the DVD, the menu screens look good, the video of the first part looks fine, but from second game, or of the stage, the video quality changes. The video becomes almost black and white. The shadows and the highlights of the video seem to be exaggerated and that they are pink color. It seems to be an effect of video editing, but I did no changes to the video features. Help.

I need to download, install and update the drivers for my Dell 620 latitude so I went on the site of DELL drivers & downloads, entered my serial number and he gave me a list of drivers. I followed the instructions on the site and install them in the order. The last one is a Dell Wireless 1490 Dual Band WLAN Mini-Card that uses this DELL_MULTI-DEVICE_A31-1_R286815file. It works and my wireless connection is very good. But... as soon as it is installed my computer takes ten minutes when I want to stop. I did free microsofts 'full' virus scan and it comes back with nothing. Anyone know if this could be related to a missing file of Audio SigmaTel that I bypassed After erasing my hard drive.? The file is sthda.sys and apperantly a WDM driver disk is necessary, but I have not one.

Thank you, but I seem to have fixed. Don't know how but I uninstalled the WLAN card and reinstalled. The computer said that it could not uninstall, but he must have done something because I went to open one of the driver files that had another icon of the search than others and my Norton Security sent a red flag and deleted the file for me. I don't remember file name but maybe that was the cause of the problem because it now stops fine. Thanks for your help anyway :)
