Problems with Mozilla Firefox
Recently a box appeared called "Firefox" with the message "Could not access XPCOM" on my Vista laptop. When trying to delete Mozilla Firefox on the control panel "uninstall programs" nothing happened when you click on the subject, although a box seems to do that. How can I get rid of the XPCOM.
[Original title: Mozilla Firefox]
Try to start your system in safe mode by rebooting your system key and press F8 repeatedly, then select Safe mode and then try to uninstall it from there.

Hello, I have a problem with Mozilla Firefox 14 and now also Firefox 15. When I click on .html files on my desktop, firefox will open a new window twice. Where is the problem? Thank you
That may be a problem with the DDE.
Try to undo and redo Firefox as default browser.
Make a different browser like IE browser by default and then let Firefox do it again.

They are not search engines. They are called browsers, and Yes you can use Mozilla Firefox and Internet Explorer on the same computer at the same time. You can also add Google Chrome and a few others without causing problems for your computer.
Most people are after the use of these alternative browsers, that they no longer wish to continue using Internet Explorer.

I'm having a problem with the FireFox browser. I have attached two files that describe the problem. I have marked their A & B. A is how it should look like and B what happens once I have, I opened several tabs. I can get it back to normal if I click VIEW, click Customize. When the window customize appears that Firefox returns to its normal state. I have to click on the done button and go back to what I did. I tried to reset FireFox back to the default settings, but that has not fixed the problem.
It started happening a month. Is there a way I can fix this? Thanks for your help. I don't know how to fix my 2 attachments that shows the problem I'm having.

How to stop the tab 'Getting started with Mozilla Firefox' to open every time I open FF?
Everytime I open FF, the tab "Getting started with Mozilla Firefox" opens. I checked and it is not in my list of homepage.
If I open any additional windows, it does not open.
But, once I close all the and reopen it again, the tab opens.
I had a similar problem with some addons (ietab) do the same thing.
I found the fix for it.
About: config, filter for 'Start '
Ones you want to should appear at the bottom.
Startup.homepage_override_url and startup.homepage_welcome_url
Double-click on each one and delete the text string. Close and reopen the window to check that it worked.
As I deleted them both at the same time, I'm not sure who was the culprit. So, I suggest starting by striking first and tests before deleting this one.

I'm worried I can compromise the security of my existing of passwords saved in Firefox by installing the add-on 'Saved password editor V2.7'. Is the add-on 'Saved password editor V2.7' a safe and secure to use with Mozilla Firefox V21.0 app?
You should always be careful when you install extensions, not only for security reasons, but always with respect to the stability of Firefox.
Extensions, hosted on the site of the Add - ons were examined, unless otherwise stated and are generally safe for installation, but they remain third-party software developed by others (only a few are Mozilla and patches).

Hello
When you get this program you want to use to open the file, you can select the appropriate program to open it? If so, isn't there a box to check that says always use this program...
Network adapter. Missing drivers? Go to your device manager and look to see if there is lack of device drivers. They can be labeled as just a controller ethenet or other device with a small exclamation point.
This means that they need a driver. In order to send you the link to the right driver, I need to know what model of network card you have.
If you are unsure, click on all the missing devices in Device Manager. Then click on the Details tab. In the property drop-down list, select the second element (Hardware ID). After the first string of characters you see.
Who will be ID the make and model of the device and I can send you the link for the drivers.
Sorry, but I don't know anything about video games, so I can't help with that one.

"The page isn't redirecting properly" problem on Mozilla Firefox and Internet Explorer 11
Hello
After installing a piece of hardware that increased the length/power of my wireless connection, and turned on my computer the next day, I loaded the 11 Internet Explorer and Mozilla Firefox, but the two would not load Web pages with a "http://" in front of the 'www. '; they would only Web pages with an "https://" in front of the «www.» This problem occurred with persistence despite me both browsers the reset to the factory settings. I looked at prior to this problem solutions, but none of them does not work (I tried to reset my cookies and that has not worked as well as made sure that the cookies on both browsers have been activated and that didn't work either), for me at least.
I would really appreciate if you could give me a quick solution to this problem that this problem affects my most commonly used Web pages.
Thank you and best regards.

I just noticed that my code (in my blog site), which is a regular code that allows the image to transform into its form in grayscale and cast its original color, does not work with the Mozilla Firefox browser. But with other browsers, it works. I hope you can help me with this little problem. Thank you!
Should I use a CSS rule that is similar to:
filter: grayscale(100%)
This property is not yet implemented in Firefox. It is supposed to be implemented in Firefox 34, according to https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/filter
