• Use firefox to access Amazon doesn't let me put a product in the basket. I don't have this problem with IE HELP!

  When I click to add a product to a basket on that I wonder to click continue to make sure that I really want to do. This only happens when I use Internet Explorer. I talked to Amazon about this and they don't seem to know why this happened. So frustrating! Help, please. Thank you.

  From what I found in a search on the web, it is designed to occur if you make your purchase on the site of an Amazon affiliate instead of directly on Amazon.

  If you are shopping on Amazon itself, two thoughts:

  (1) you may have an outdated cookie value. To clear your Amazon cookies (note: this will disconnect you), you can do: while displaying a page on the site, try either:

  • Right click and select View Page Info > Security > "View Cookies".
  • ALT + t (open the classic Tools menu) > Page Info > Security > "View Cookies".

  In the dialog box that opens, you can delete cookies from the site individually.

  Then try to reload the page and add something to your cart. Any difference?

  (2) you have an add-on which is injected in your shopping to try to get a percentage of your purchases.

  Please, try the SafeMode as indicated above and see if that changes anything.

• When I go on some websites (such as cricinfo), I am redirected to a page of 123 find. I don't have this problem with IE, and when I re - install firefox, the problem reappears

  If I quit firefox and then restart your computer and access the page, I can go to the web site. Then very quickly, the 123 find program takes over.
  This happens at home, I have all the info here.

  Finally, the problem is solved by running malwarebytes. I've deleted and reinstalled firfox and the problem reappears. This occurred because the Trojan horse was in the plugins folder that was not deleted when firefox has been removed.
  After that the Trojan horse has been deleted by malwarebytes, the problem is not happening yet.

• laptop (Dell Inspiron) with Windows 7 Home Premium is now slow to most of the activities - loading of the pages in the browser, etc.

  I heard that after a few years of use, Windows-based computers lose their ability to function. This happened to me before and I bought a new laptop. Now, I think that it happens again. The laptop (Dell Inspiron) with Windows 7 Home Premium is now slow to most of the activities - loading of the pages in the browser, etc... He is also declining my VPN connection occasionally, but also my direct connection is very slow. Latency shows speedtest software provided by the ISP in addition of 250 ms, download speed of 1 MB/s (compared with 8 planned) and 0.05Mbps download. The ISP has corrected this once, but I'm wondering now if it is the computer which is slow rather than on the network because my laptop works well on the same network/router. Is there one solution to this other than another new laptop?

  Jonathan,

  You say that your computer is slow, but all of the examples you give are rather than slow computer operations slow network communications.  To avoid any unnecessary work, check how fast the computer is on the tasks that don't use any network.

  If it works fine for tasks not network then you can concentrate on the problems of network as being the only concern.

  It has also become very slow for no network tasks you should study other causes.  Just as an example: If, like me, you sleep / turn off the computer when you are not using it then defrag will never work, so you can run it manually to make sure that doesn't cause problems.   Describe your symptoms in this thread so that someone can advise on the best course of action.

  In the unlikely case where you must run Dell Factory Image Restore, then the instructions are in your manual PC *.  Before doing this, run Dell Datasafe Local Backup then click on Backup, recovery to create - media allows you to create a bootable USB of the partition that you can use the normal procedure that failing Dell Factory Image Restore [to do this, even if you have already solved your problems so that you could face if the hard drive has failed never completely].

  5. to access the recovery options, log in as a local user. To access the command prompt, type administrator in the user name field, and then click OK.

• I just got a black screen with "this copy of Windows is not genuine".

  Original title: OS not real question?

  Well, I bought a computer off Craig's list this week. Yes, I know this isn't the safest place to get a computer, but what's done is done. The current operating system of the computer is Win7. However I just got the black screen with "this copy of Windows is not genuine". I looked at the back of the computer and saw that he has a real sticker Win XP Pro. So is there anyway I can just download XP Pro on this computer and be good from there?

  Thank you
  KnightChain

  Check with the manufacture of the computer to see if you have a "recovery partition" and how to use it to restore XP or if they still have the support of Windows XP available with they can send you to usually a small fee.
