When I open a link that opens a new Firefox window, it opens 2 tabs instead of one. A tab is the link that I opened and the second tab is just a generic Mozilla tab with links to 12 pages like Facebook, Youtube, etc. This tab opens on top too, so I always have to close to get what I'm looking for. How can I stop this from happening?
Hello. Thanks for all the posts on this topic. I have the same problem, as described by the op. But, while I use Avast, I have NOT the add-on from Astromenda which has been mentioned. However, I have the SB installed toolbar, and it has been recently updated, 29/12. I suspect that it is the culprit, if this problem is in fact not caused by an update of Firefox (my tiles have recently been reset on new tabs, and I suspect that Firefox for this problem).
I am ready to remove the toolbar from the SB, but prefer to keep it (Yes, I admit I'm stupid) If this annoying 'new window = 2 tabs with 'new tab' at the top' would just leave.
Apart from the removal of the toolbar SB... does anyone have suggestions? I don't see that all recently added add-ons/extensions that I don't recognize, apart from the update of the toolbar of SB.
Updated: 5 minutes after this announcement, I disabled the toolbar of SB and restarted Firefox. No change.

OT: my Administration event log is 8000 + and new errors every day. How can I stop this?
My ACER laptop running VISTA family premium has many errors I do not understand why and don't know how to stop.

For example my lap top works generally OK but Explorer windows (explorer.exe) crashes with a message that it fails and restarts. The error code and events are
Error 01/03/11 10:04:22 Application Error 1000 (100)

After find you the program that is causing the problem, you will have to perhaps to update or install a newer version of the program, if you rarely use that you should consider uninstalling the software.Important: n ' forget not to put the computer to a normal startup follow step 7 in the link.

Since the update to El Capitan, during the scrolling of the screen guard snapping back to the top of the Web page. How can I stop this?
Please read this message before doing anything.
This procedure is a diagnostic test. It is unlikely to solve your problem. Don't be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
The test is intended to determine if the problem is caused by a third-party software that loads automatically at startup or logon, by a device, by a police conflict or corruption of system files or some system caches.
Disconnect all devices wired except those required to test and remove all the expansion cards from secondary market, as appropriate. Start in safe mode and log on to the account of the problem.
Note: If FileVault is enabled in OS X 10.9 or an earlier version, or if a firmware password is defined, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can not do this. Ask for additional instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to boot and run as normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things work at all, including an audio output and a Wi - Fi connection on some models. The next normal boot can also be a bit slow.
The login screen is displayed even if you usually connect automatically. You need your password to log on. If you have forgotten the password, you will have to reset it before you begin.
Test in safe mode. Same problem?
After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and make sure you always have the problem. View the results of the test.

Can software update on iphone cause problems when my computer can only move to Mountain Lion?
Can software update on iphone cause problems when my computer can only move to Mountain Lion?
When my computer can only be upgraded to Mountain Lion?
Any Mac that can run Mountain Lion can run El Capitan, as long as the conditions are identical.
Too little information: you must identify the model of your iPhone and explain exactly your problems. There is no way that anyone would be able to help otherwise.

I have just upgraded to Windows 7. But whenever I turn on my computer, he wants to support me on my user account name before completely loading windows. How can I stop this and simply load in thank you Windows.
Hi UKuser7,
Welcome to Microsoft Answers Forum.
Automatic logon is disabled in Windows 7 by default for security reasons. If it is enabled, anyone who can physically access the computer can also gain access to everything on the computer, including the networks that it is connected.
This setting is only recommended for cases where the computer is physically secure.
To set up Windows 7 to connect to the desktop automatically, follow the steps below.
1) click Start , and then enter the following command in the start search box:
Netplwiz
2) press ENTER.
This opens the Advanced user accounts Control Panel window.
(3) in the users tab, uncheck the box next to users must enter a user name and password to use this computer.
4) click apply at the bottom of the user accounts window.
(5) when the newspaper automatically on the dialog box appears, enter the user name for which you want to automatically connect to Windows 7. Then enter your password in the two areas where it is requested.
6) click on the OK button.
7) click OK in the window user accounts to complete the process.
Thereafter, your PC at startup, Windows 7 will be automatically connect.
Ticket back for your comments and concerns.
Kind regards
