• Why does something start downloading when I activate Fire Fox when I updates for Fire Fox and Add ons disabled?

  When I launch Firefox 18 on one of my two laptops, it starts the download of 'something', I don't know what.

  1. I have automatic updates turned off Firefox.
  2. I have automatic updates for plugins and addons turned off.
  3. I have the automatic updates of windows disabled.
  4. I have automatic updates for Kaspersky Internet Security is turned off.
  5. I connect with a modem 56 k. I have monitor network activity and none occurred. My home page in Firefox is a blank page. I turn 18 Firefox and go no where but monitor my internet traffic and 2 minutes later, the download starts. I close Firefox 18 and download stops.
  6 activate another browser and no download occurs even 5 minutes after activation.
  7. of curiosity I went down a coffee shop yesterday, connected to their wifi and enabled Firefox 18. 89 89 megabytes later, the download has stopped. I have no idea of fricking which downloaded after that I enabled Firefox 18 but I went nowhere on the internet, just sat there and watched my Blankpage (homepage) and looked at the mysterious download take place.
  8 I log on the internet today with my modem 56 k and two minutes later the download starts again.
  9. I have an old desk with Firefox 3.6 something on it with Kaspersky Internet Security and it does not occur on the desktop.

  Given that this only happens with Firefox 18, it seems reasonable to consider Firefox 18 related and possibly a problem of security or privacy, but I guess it could also be a question of settings. I upgrade my Internet Security every two days. I scan my laptop regularly. It still happens. I can't use Firefox for a browser because half my paltry 56 k of bandwidth is being sucked by some mysterious unsolicited download that occurs only when Firefox 18 is activated.

  I appreciate your response, but now do not know if it could have been anything in this answer because...

  This problem seems to have disappeared, don't know why but I have a possible theory. It's only a theory on my part, as I am not knowledgeable about the inner workings of Firefox. When I installed Firefox 18 there all automatic update options enabled by default. At the point where I turned off their all, I guess it started to download updates for all plugins and addons, like java, quicktime etc. etc. etc even if I had not personally initiated these downloads and updates. My theory is that once these downloads had begun, even if I had turned off the automatic update, it would continue the download of updates which had started and would not stop until she had done this.

  I do not disable anti-phishing and site wrong detection stuff, but I seriously doubt the update for these items would have been 89 megabytes of data, but I could be wrong.

  So for now, I'll close it and mark it resolved and continue to monitor to see if I have any more "strangeness" lights up.

• Laptop with Windows XP pro does not connect to the home network. Has been fine with the Linksys router. Updated Netgear router again and now will not work.

  Improved the old Linksys G series to new router Netgear N600 - now can't connect wireless or directly with the ethernet cable. Status shows: "acquiring network address" or "little or no conectivity.  Worked through all the options of repairing typical network with no luck.  Also reset router, I tried direct cable modem & shows 'connected icon' but still does not connect to IE.  Another new computer with Windows 7 works great on this network.  What is my next step to repair?

  Use a static IP address and see what happens.

  How can I configure my static IP address?

• My laptop has not been used for a year and now does not connect to wireless internet?

  My wife's cell phone has recently been repaired (power Cable plug damage) and has been missing for a year. We both used my laptop which connects to the internet just fine. The laptop connects to the network but does not connect to the internet. I tried all suggestions that our Windows Diagnostics, as well as other ideas for myself but had no chance. The continuous diagnostic message to read "cannot communicate with primary DNS 194.168.4.100 server. My only thought is that perhaps because of the amount of time it has been used as the network driver can be updated, although I don't know how to upgrade without connecting to the net?

When we arrived at the new account did not show and just my sisters once that she had recorded in then signed in to the new account that we made in the shop. Now, we managed to find all the documents in the 'users' section but all applications are gone and the new account is not visible.

  If you go to the preferences system/users and groups, how many accounts do you see there? How many accounts is supposed to be there?

  My MacBook froze during the installation of the update at El Capitan and now I am unable to connect to any except the screen of the guest user. There was a message of panic, and somewhere in there, he said no set of OS. I tried to start without danger, it does not work either.

  This general situation may be similar to what is mentioned in this sequel to thread of the CSA

  and if the remedy is to use instructions; detailed and I hope they are correct...

  Re: Restart fails after installation of El Capitan help!

  Or you can try and see on the repair of the system and then if your disk utility can

  See the Macintosh HD, as a boot volume, you could restart from OS X Recovery to

  the Mac system, to see if this solves the problem. There may be more than one cause.

  You could try and boot into OS X Recovery, utilities out there, and other options are available.

  • OS X: on OS X Recovery - Apple Support

  This example uses a special partition on the hard drive of recovery which is not in the

  same disc that the Mac OS X section; However if your hard drive is missing, these other

  items may also be at risk. You must have and maintain backups of your duplicate content

  on the external storage drives closed; In addition, a Time Machine backup helps to restore.

  Don't know what to say; you could see visiting an Apple store with genius if

  There is an official store. Usually for best time planning you would contact them for an appointment.

  • Make an appointment at an Apple Retail Store Genius Bar
  • Find an Apple authorized service provider
  • https://locate.Apple.com/country - Apple - find places - selector of country (if outside the U.S.)

  Or if there is no official retail Apple Store with genius, the following suggestion would be to contact

  a service provider authorized Apple, an independent specialist who is qualified in the repair of Apple.

  In any case...

  Good luck & happy computing!
