Using the latest version of FF and Windows 7.

Add an integer to the 'about' config' actually worked for me. Don't be frightened by the "void your warranty" warning that appears first. Start by right clicking on a spot clean on the opening screen and then follow the directions. in the original post.

  • Microsoft scam? Had 2 calls from a person claiming to be MS and saying: I have a virus

    original title: 'MICROSOFT' SCAM?

    Hello, I got 2 phone calls this week to an Indian sounding man claining it is from Microsoft and that my computer is attacked by a massive virus. It then asks me to check start / my app work/manage/computer/management and says you can see the warnings that we sent you. There are warnings, so the first time, he did, I thought but has no confidence in him, even if I did say that he had arrived since I downloaded Microsoft Security Essentials, which he found very interesting. Then, I finished the call and removed MSE and reinstalled AVG free. I scanned the PC (with MSE previously) and AVG and no threat or anything found. He or someone similar - rang again this morning with the same terrible warnings, but my wife ended the call quickly. Are you aware of this presumable scam? Or was it authentic? Please notify.

  • I want to go directly to "My Documents" when I click the icon in the taskbar. I don't want to go to the library and I then have to click My Documents.

    I tried unpin, repinning, removing, dragging shortcuts, etc.  All I want is an icon in the taskbar that will go directly into My Documents.  I do not want to use a shortcut on the desktop or through the start menu.

    Hello JoMassino,

    You can lock your documents folder to libraries (by default in your taskbar) icon. To do this, right click on your icon libraries, put highlight 'documents' and click on 'PIN to this list. To access this more later, you again do a right-click on the icon of libraries and select documents.

    Documents, media and other data can be found on the taskbar of Windows 7, but they will be added to the list of shortcuts for the associated application.

    I hope this suggestion works for you.

  • How to add a new "recommended site" to your search engine in Windows 7 operating system? Or replace?

    After update of existing Firefox, I lost very good 'photos - small windows' representing my frequently visited sites. A new version looks perfect with the exception of:
    (a) no my "old sites."
    (b) problems with too many toolbars etc taking up too much space on the top of your screen/window.
    I found instead of simple short names under the search field that could replace the previous list / default of recommended sites.
    Thanks in advance.

  • just downloaded firefox 8 and disabled mcafee site Advisor how to get back to version 7

    just downloaded firefox 8 and it disabled the Advisor site on my mcafee security suite. How to get back to version 7 until the site Advisor is compatible with version 8?

    Although I gave up on it for now, if you don't have a lot of extension, you can run it in Version 8, actually if you ran it 7, you're probably doing something else that activate. As their website says you a version number you suggest to reinstall and restart Firefox twice, see

    I have reactivated it as I had turned it off and it works, guess I'll try it for a few days now that I'm on 8.0. While the difference between what I ran on 7.0.1 this is I have reactivated earlier "McAfee Site Advisor" but then the main reason that I have no problems is that I avoid bad extensions.

    I see that it is not marked as compatible with 8.0 but many of my extensions are not anyway. I have

    extensions.checkCompatibility.8.0 set to false

    and my McAfee Site Advisor is 3.4.0

    The extensions that I use are listed hereand I actually have links with the compatibility reports it for each extension, but were not check things there for several months.

  • Guys, I find it really useful the McAfee site Advisor. I upgraded FF to v5 and McAfee site advisor is disabled (instability). When / if this will be rectified? Really disappointing in what is otherwise the best and the most stable browser out there! r

    Not much more to add. Version 4 of FF worked fine with McAfee Site Advisor direct. I have the software McAfee total protection on my PC - as it turns out be the most reliable for you - so I trust in the Site Advisor - and would like to have this application available when you are using FF.

    McAfee Site Advisor 3.3.1 expansion was the number 2 cause accidents in one of the versions beta Firefox 5.0 and Mozilla Blocklisted it. This extension is disabled in Firefox 5, Firefox 6.0beta and Firefox 7.0alpha versions. McAfee is working on a new version of re-written extension of the Site Advisor to solve their problems - ETA is mid to late July. https://www.Mozilla.com/en-us/blocklist/

    Thanks to the-edmeister

    McAfee has been notified on 27 May and had a month to work on their extension up to now.

    Original title: I bought a computer and it came not with all drives.

    I bought a computer from a business, and it was a computer on the network. It came not with all drives. Is it possible to reformat the system with out having to re - buy windows xp or office? Can I get copies of XP and Office? I still have the XP sticker with the computer.

    If they don't give you the disks, all you need is a boat anchor. Ask them to give you the disks and product keys. Otherwise, you will need to buy.

    Hello Ann,.

    If you allowed them access to your PC, then it is a problem. I considered reinstalling my OS and change all my passwords. It would also make sense, if you use the online banking etc., to inform your bank that you have a security hole on your PC. This will alert them to anyone using your current password to the Bank etc.

    By definition, means a 'upgrade' (as opposed to a new installation)
    that all data, programs, etc. are kept intact.
     
    There is however no guarantee that it always works perfectly.
    However unlikely, it is always possible that something can go wrong.
    That is why he is careful to make sure you have a backup of anything
    You can't afford to lose before you start.
