I want to download Firefox 3.6 on Windows XP Sp3, I have installed Google Chrome and IE8. I have to keep the other two browsers after downloading Firefox 3.6?

My OS is Windows XP Sp3 IE is OEM. I downloaded Google Chrome recently. I upgraded to IE8 to IE9; that had problems. Having to constantly install security updates, etc. So, I downloaded Google Chrome 9; that I had no problem with him. I used Firefox with Facebook and liked its functions. Now, I've updated my Yahoo! e-mail that recommends Firefox 3.6 for the optimization of Yahoo! I want that FIREFOX 3.6 at my PRIMARY and ONLY browser. Can I safely uninstall Internet Explorer 9 and Google Chrome 9 of my Windows XP Sp3?

It is strongly advised to not uninstall IE as described in this article. You can uninstall Google Chrome if you want to.

To make Firefox default browser, see the instructions in this article.

    Looks like you may have a virus or other malware. Get your updated antivirus program and boot into Safe Mode. Note that some viruses can hide from your normal antivirus program, so you really need to scan in Safe Mode. To enter in Safe Mode when you turn on first, press F8 on every seconds until you get the menu, and then select Safe Mode. Then run a complete system scan.

    If that suits him fine. If this is not the case, use system restore to go back to an earlier date at the beginning of the problem. To run system restore, click Start-> programs-> Accessories-> System Tools-> system restore. Click on the box that says show more restore points.

    -

    You can check the corrupted system files. Open an administrator command prompt and run SFC if the above does not help. Click START, and then type CMD in the search box, right-click on CMD. EXE and click run as administrator. Then, from the command prompt type sfc/scannow.

    -

    Finally if all else fails, you can look at the rather cryptic system event log. To do that click on start-> Control Panel-> administration-> event viewer tools. Once in Event Viewer system log-click and scroll entries looking for these "error" with indicator see if you can find guidance on where the problem may be.

    `

    When you get your system in good working condition, I invite you to back up your system up to an external hard drive and make it regular periodic updates.

    I hope this helps. Good luck.

  • Downloading files of database in Google Chrome and Firefox

    I use a modified version of the get_doc to view the files stored in the database.  I am able to use this code perfectly in Internet Explorer, but tries to display data in Firefox or Google Chrome open a page showing the data in a binary format.  In my view, that he can have something to do with headers.  The code is as follows:

    create or replace

    package body 'PKG_FILES' is

    -set the size so that the browser knows how to download

    HTP.p ("Content-length: ' |") v_length);

    -the name of the file will be used by the browser if users only one save as

    HTP.p ('Content-Disposition: attachment; filename = "" | ") Replace (Replace (substr (v_file_name, InStr(v_file_name,'/') + 1), Chr (10), null), Chr (13), null). '"');

    -close the headers

  • browsers (IE8, Firefox, Google Chrome and Opera) 32-bit and Vista 64-bit

    Hello

    I have a HP Pavilion dv2842se. I've had a little more than a year. IE 7 was originally installed with a version 32-bit and 64-bit. Not long after that I got it, the 32-bit version stops working. More specifically, as soon as I open the program it would be closed and completely unusable. I couldn't understand the question, so I installed Mozilla Firefox 32 bit and just used that. When the update of IE 8 came out, I downloaded and still had the same problem, so I continued to use Firefox.

    With the help of Mozilla has worked for me until about two weeks ago, when Mozilla started to become more and more reliable and now completely unusable. Assuming that it was a specific problem of Mozilla, I downloaded the 32-bit versions of Chrome and Opera and finished with all versions of four 32-bit navigation programs are the same.

    I realize that I can simply use the 64 bit version of IE8, as I did since I have no choice. However, there is a big problem with this. IE8 does not support Adobe Flash Player, which is required to run virtually all Web sites - including on the main site I use for my college classes. As the main reason that I bought this computer was for College, my computer as a whole is pretty useless to me without a functional browser that supports Adobe Flash Player.

    By the statement of HP, I tried to disable all add-ons, reset all internet settings and uninstall then reinstall Adobe Flash Player. I even on my own I've tried a system restore and scanned for viruses, spyware and software malware. Nothing has worked.

    Please, please, please if there is absolutely everything I can do to restore my browsers 32 bit in a usable state, please help me. I really do not have the money to buy a new computer, and 64-bit operating systems are almost now - standard, so there is no saying that if I bought a new computer for the same thing does not happen everywhere.

    Thanks for any help you can provide! It is much appreciated!

  • have sites is not compatible with Firefox. How can I use default Firefox and still be able to use the other sites?

    I want to continue to use Firefox as my default browser. However several sites that I regularly use only support the 'other' browser. Is it possible to identify these non friendly sites and have them open in different browser?

    Not really. Some obsolete sites may have a "Better known with Internet Explorer" note somewhere, but even those who might very well work in Firefox.

    You can try the following steps in case of problems with web pages:

    Reload Web pages and ignore the cache to refresh potentially stale or corrupt.

    • Hold down the SHIFT key and click the Reload button
    • Press 'Ctrl + F5' or 'Ctrl + Shift + R' (Windows, Linux)
    • Press 'Command + shift + R' (Mac)

    Clear the cache and cookies only from Web sites that are causing problems.

    'Delete Cookies' sites causing problems:
