  • Remove search engines integrated into Firefox nightly

    I use default Firefox-search engines, if I like to be able to remove all the Amazon, Twitter, Google nativelly installed on each version of Firefox. The current use and the beta version of Firefox, I am able to remove search engines built on the Android version, just the Add-ons Manager and disable the search engine.

    However, on the last Nightly build, search engines is not found in the Add-ons Manager. My phone is not rooted, so I'm not able to set the list of search engines directly by editing the files or the withdrawal through the list of search engines. Impossible to find a property in ' subject: config' either...

    You can always disable the search engines if you have root access on your device. Specifically, you have to shoot and edit the search.json file. On my camera, I have:

    ADB pull /data/data/org.mozilla.firefox/files/mozilla/rbn69ru0.default/search.json

    Now, by default, this file is not any format nicely, you can use something like

    http://jsonformat.com

    To clean things up. In all cases, you will see pieces such as

                  "_id": "[app]/bing.xml",
                  "_name": "Bing",
                  "_hidden": false,
                  "description": "",
                  "__searchForm": "http://www.bing.com",
    

    You must take the "_hidden" flag and change for real. This, for all search engines to hide all the. Or else, frankly, just delete everything under the engines. Then, download the file back and restart firefox with a command like:

    ADB push search.json /data/data/org.mozilla.firefox/files/mozilla/rbn69ru0.default/

    Until the application is restarted, the changes won't be visible.

    As a slight note of the drafting, it is dumb that we have to do it by hand. We should be able to disable things under settings-> customize-> search settings or we should have some way to run things in topic: config. While I understand that menu to delete items that cause too much trouble to support, by completely removing the option even with about: config is counterproductive.

  • Error message when you try to download Windows Defender: "first remove Microsoft Client Protection." Cannot find this file through the Add/Remove, search, including hidden or Win Explorer.

    Original title: trying to download

    WinXP SP3, Security Scan run and d/ld: error message when you try to download Windows Defender: "first remove Microsoft Client Protection." Cannot find this file through the Add/Remove, search, including hidden or Win Explorer. What to do now would be much appreciated.

    Also have a related problem about MS Maliciouws software removal tool. For download, but read in the KB that: in XP, the vacuum cleaner will remove the malware, but doing so may trigger the File Protection Win with damages to my operating system.  the tool will attempt to repair the damage, but to rehabilitate prior to infection, that I need to insert the CD of Win. As my computer came with Windows preinstalled, I do not have a disk and will not take the risk of damage, that I can't fix. Do I not download or not... ? Another solution... ?  I also fear that this tool could settle into the routine Win Update and need guidance on the prevention of this facility, if possible, or what to do if it cannot be prevented.

    It can have nothing to do with any of the foregoing. " I'm relaying only because it occurred during the same mission of update: had msg of error that Win Firewall has not been set as a default, which reset, but found this hidden file when searching for the Protection of the customer: "Win 32/Hackdef' - it was a config with the extension ini file and was deleted by Scan."

    Thanks a lot for any assistance.

    Hello

    ·         You have Microsoft Security Essentials on your computer?

    If you have windows installed on your computer security essentials, then you will not be able to install Windows defender. Windows Security Essentials has antispyware component installed.

    You get the error because you have installed MS Security Essentials, which has its own function to antimalware. You don't need or want to install Windows Defender, too. Leave MS Security Essentials installed and do not turn it off.

  • How to remove "search with google" on the link address bar?

    In the last update "firefox aurora", I now have a little awkward accommodation that opens with all the usual sites, I'll and he says: Google search.

    Or more accurately, it is said that after that I start to type any word in the address bar. It is quite annoying. I use firefox/aurora because I hate google chrome to do the same shit.
    If I want to search with google, I'll go to google.com as I always do. I don't have an option obvious sell-out google it just to annoy the hell out of me when I need it 98% of the time.

    Now, is there anywhere in the subject: config or any other way to remove this annoying nuisance?

    Or if not, a way to downgrade to the previous version which is not only addition. (I don't really like on 'security risk' Please do not give me that excuse)

    I'd rather not have to go and use internet explorer if I do not, but if I'm stuck with this annoying thing, I prefer to use the very crappy browser something that will annoy me always.

    Nevermind, it fixed.

    Or update that just happened to be doing the work.

  • Can someone advise me on AVG Secure startup and file tree bloat remains removal search suggestions?

    Recently, I used the solution to https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/927950?page=2#answer-364990 by KerriB. It worked. However, I still found traces of the bloatware in two other places. Not sure if I should remove them or not. Suggestions? I've included pictures of the locations (slightly rewritten for security reasons).

    We're in my startup programs. Access: Mouseover an open space on your desktop. Press the Windows key and the R key at the same time. A dialog box appears. Type msconfig. Click the Startup tab. It lists all the programs that start at startup. As you can see, ask VProtect and ROC_roc_ssl_v12 are listed as unknown manufacturer, but in the file tree, they are in C:\Program AVG safe search.

    The other location is accessible via start, then choosing computer, drive Local (c) (your local drive can be a different letter, obviously), Program Files. As you can see, there are a whole folder FILLED with elements of AVG safe Search.

    I have a support ticket open with AVG on this issue, but it is the weekend, I can not hear back for a few days. I'll let everyone know what they advise when back from them, I hear.

    UPDATE:

    I complained to AVG, and they offered me a free license for their 2012 AVG Premium paid... Security edition o.O... anyway, I wrote them back asking about the remains above and they responded by sending me a download of a special uninstall program (you have to install - go irony!). I have included a picture of this email (3).

    After running the uninstall program, I ran a cleaning of the system, and a deep cleaning run Advanced Systemcare (my favorite Cleanup utility), did a restart, then did a search for 'AVG '.

    As you can see (picture 4), I * STILL * had a folder filled with AVG, accessible by clicking on start, computer, C:\.

    I've done a shred secure deletion (again, and Advanced Systemcare tool, but simply to delete probably would be nice) this folder of AVG. Yet once, I ran a cleaning system, and a deep cleaning run Advanced Systemcare (my favorite Cleanup utility), did a restart, then did a search for 'AVG '. This time, nothing came. Great! right? No. I wanted to be * SURE * it was ALL gone, so I opened Windows Defender (the included firewall that comes with Windows 7), expanded the menu on the drives to be analyzed and down-and-this is, look, you know, a $AVG (image 5) HIDDEN folder!

    Now, I have to show all hidden folders to find. Which is done by clicking on start, control panel (change display by: small icons), Options records, (popup window), display tab, then check the selection dot next to "Show hidden files, folders and drives", apply, OK (see image 6 for description). Now go back to start, computer, C:\, and it should show the hidden $AVG folder. If that does not show it, you can also do a search and delete the search results folder. Yet ONCE, I ran a cleaning system, and a deep cleaning run Advanced Systemcare (my favorite Cleanup utility), did a restart, then did a search for 'AVG '.

    I feel now that I am completely free of AVG. I hope this helps you get rid of it too!

    To answer your question, no, I don't think you can disable or remove the 'Search' function  This is not to insult your intelligence or make you feel stupid or anything else similar.  It is there, because sometimes we will come lyrics that we do not know the definition of the term.  It is an easy and quick way to get into the dictionary and discover the meaning of something.  Not more, not less.

  • How can I remove search gol of firefox? It is not in addons or extenstions and I'm worried reload firefox because I don't want to lose the darlings or the current session

    I always use Google as my search engine of firefox.
    However, I must have accidentally downloaded a file that has implemented the GOL research as my search engine and I want to get rid of it.
    Info to do this strangely is not anywhere on google searches.
