• Common Web site does not scroll with Firefox the fact with Explorer

  Finally, I installed firefox for the first time yesterday. I was impressed by the speed. I have windows XP, which was new at the time on my laptop Compaq Presario V5000. I was unable to download Explorer 8 and the other 2 options on the Ford Motor Co. Web site were Firefox and Chrome. I chose Firefox. When I go on the web site of Ford - photos do not one side to side - scroll and they load partially below the first set of photos on Firefox (the top of page 1/3 of the bottom row to see the pictures) when I load the Explorer on these pictures together and correct scroll and the partial line does not show and which would be correct. On the positive side, in addition to the speed, the list of options and standard equipment truck scrolls up and down properly. On explore, it is difficult to maintain in position when scrolling. In addition, my concern is the antivirus protection and antispyware - I use the free microsoft protection - but I think if you use firefox I don't have. In addition the site Ford when I try to play videos - it says I need flash player - and then it trys to install and used.

  Yes, this site is fake and use Firefox popularity to new users of Firefox to the inexperienced users in Windows using Firefox. Firefox is not only for Windows (also for Mac OSX and Linux on the desktop) and mozilla would have never kept up-to-date through a small .exe more so on a site not random mozilla.org .

• How to run Windows update for Win XP SP3 using Firefox

  My desktop PC computer running windows XP with SP3. My spouse uses IE 8 for its browser. I use Firefox Version 24. for my browser. Previously, whenever we ran MS or Windows update it starts IE and works very well. IE 8 blew up and does more (execution errors). I tried to go to the site to update Windows using Firefox and he came back and told me that I had to use IE to launch Win update on an XP system. Is this true? I don't want to use IE at all. Is it possible to use Firefox to run Windows or MS update on my Win XP system? Thank you.

  You cannot run windows update using Firefox because it uses controls ActiveX Firefox is not (and will never). Yes, then unfortunately use IE for Windows update.

• Some sites Web, including Mozilla, seems to think that I use another version of Firefox that I use; How can I fix?

  I was trying to install an addon, but he said "Not available for Firefox 2.0.0.16" and did not allow me to install the addon. I haven't used this version of Firefox since... I don't know when. In fact I don't know that I've ever used this version on this computer. I have used several versions of xx 3. and running 4.0.1. I tried to uninstall and reinstall Firefox and I still have the problem. We can all sites, but I know for some Hotmail and Youtube also both incorrectly identify my version of browser.

• Can Mozilla to improve the compatibility of Firefox with Adobe through the pepper based Flash Player Chrome uses

  I noticed recently that when using Firefox I can't (yet) to watch videos of Australian Broadcasting Corporation by using their site ABC Iview (www.abc.net.au/iview). I think it's because my current version of Mozilla Firefox on Ubuntu 12.04 (Linux) uses Adobe Flash Player 11.2.202.400 (according to http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/) but Adobe says it's the latest version, they will produce for the Linux operating system, and they won't even publish versions for Linux. However, the ABC said on their website that I need Adobe Flash Player 11.7 + for their video streaming - see http://iview.abc.net.au/support/faqs.

  So, my desire to use Firefox, because I support their principles is stuck by Adobe and ABC set (ie. by anti-competitive acts by Adobe and the stupidity of the ABC!)

  My only option is to use Google Chrome, but I largely prefer to use Firefox. I wonder if Mozilla Firefox will see if they can use "pepper based Flash player" that uses chrome, or is this something that Google has the copyright for.

  I might post screenshots of errors I get trying to watch ABC iview attached, but they seem particularly relevant and in any case, I don't see how to add images to this issue.

  Yours,

  RupJohn22

• I use Firefox 31.0, but Mozilla even says that I use an older version.

  I always upgrade to the latest version. Even if I use 31.0 right now, I checked with Mozilla site last night and were made of 'upgrade' again. I did it. Today, now that writing a message in a green button tells me to upgrade. I use Malwarebytes Anti Malware Pro, so I think that's not the problem. I use Yahoo! mail and this has not stopped the new version and only allows me to use Basic. Ad - ons to Firefox grayed out everything that cannot be used with version 10 or greater. Yet "On Firefox" in the menu help watch 31.0 version, latest version.
  So, am I stuck with some old cookie that won't erase? I tried to delete them all and that doesn't change anything, although I'm not sure I know that each location where they are stored. The key is that it is a real pain in the ass, because I am limited on other sites as well, because something says I don't have the latest version. Can anyone help?

  Did you remove the information from browser ("user agent string") of your post? To see how your Firefox is that identified Web sites, you can use my page of test here: https://www.jeffersonscher.com/res/jstest.php

  If a specific version is listed, you may experience the problem described in this article: sites say that Firefox is obsolete or incompatible, even if it's the latest version.

  If the user agent shows it is hidden or partially blocked, or if it is completely absent, you have an extension that modifies or software security/privacy external blocking.

• Firefox is upgrade Australis but Mozilla sites say it must continue to be updated

  Go to help - About says that Firefox is updated. But whenever I open any site of Mozilla, told me to update to Firefox. Useful tips?

  Also, I happen to love Australis. All my modules work very well, it is much faster and looks clean and lean. I use Classic theme restaurant just to set the bar of Status Bar/Add on on the bottom of the window. No problem, happy camper.

  your useragent (information that the browser sends to websites to identify its version) is damaged. probably some kind of addon ("masking agent"?) crushed it.

• Impossible to navigate the hyperlink in the upper part of a Web site using Firefox

  I can't navigate the hyperlink at the top of a Web site using Firefox. For example, in the site Web of Firefox, the cursor does not change 'arrow' to 'hand' when I point to 'Sign Out' or 'Inbox '. But it's ok for the rest of the site (i.e. the top right).

  However, if I use Internet Explorer, I havn't met the same problem. Help please advise.

  This problem is caused by the Yahoo! toolbar as scopes as well down and covers the top of the browser window, allowing links in this part of the screen not clickable.
