• Adding a search engine toolbar

  using firefox 11.0 on win 7 64 bit and cannot load a search engine toolbar. I did some research and found that I need to click on the search engine icon, but it is not one on my browser. I have not found another way to open the window "manage search engines". also frustrated that google has abandoned their search bar for firefox. thinking AVG load them would show up - it didn't. However, when I type a search string in my address bar, I get the avg search engine results.

  @LongHawl, is the search box here, but the drop/icon-triangle is missing? I see two ways that the malware could have hidden button. The first would be if you have an add-on that was left. If you check

  Orange Firefox button or classic menu Tools > Modules > Extensions

  You will find all this useless or suspicious noise? If so, try to disable and restart Firefox to see if that helps.

  The second would be to add a style rule in a settings file that may exist in your profile folder. If you open

  Help > troubleshooting information

  In the first section, you will find the button 'open containing folder '. Click that, and then double-click the chrome folder. If you see a file named userChrome.css, then we'd like to check that all the rules that affect the toolbars in the file. It is a text file, which you can open with Notepad or Wordpad or your favorite text editor. If you copy and paste the file here rules, we can take a look.

  If there is no questionable Add-ons and no userChrome.css, then, hmmm, you might want to try resetting your toolbars in their default configuration. This article in the section "reset toolbars and controls" has the instructions: Back and forward or other toolbar items are missing. Troubleshooting | Firefox Help. (To avoid losing other customizations, do not check the other boxes.)

• Firefox keeps asking for exceptions of security for many Web sites after the reset of the browser after Yahoo hacked my search engine toolbar

  Yahoo has hijacked my search bar where I could not find anything other than this site. I reset Firefox and now MANY sites continue to ask for a security exception.

• Get rid of Conduit search

  Whenever I update of Firefox, I am infected with Conduit search. It happened just update to 29 on my laptop and desktop. Getting rid of it is not as easy as to suggest answers in the forum, but I he would avoid rather than keep removing it. Does anyone know how can I get? He hiding on my hard drive after the "Rapture", ready for the next update, or is it integrated in the download from the Mozilla site? I'd avoid FOREVER! Thank you.

• Impossible to uninstall Yahoo toolbar from Firefox

  I repost part of another thread that was closed because no one is really listening to people who are showing the problem.

  Quote:

  I had the same problem, once I installed Yahoo Messenger. I asked do not install the toolbar, but it has been installed. Then I uninstalled it, I disabled it to addons, yet, the toolbar was there little matter what I did. I uninstalled Firefox, reinstalled, download mozilla, the toolbar was always there. I did all what it takes to uninstall a piece of software, without being "the tech guy". I don't have the same problem in Chrome or Internet Explorer. It has been uninstalled from all other browsers, when I removed the program from the control panel. I don't see what I can do to get rid of him. I chose to hide just for now, but it bothers me that I have a piece of software that acts like a virus, do stuff I don't want it to do. And for the record, I'm not confused about yahoo search and toolbar for yahooo. Right-click on the interface, allowed me to check or uncheck exactly this "yahoo toolbar".

  /quote

  That's exactly my problem as well.

  In the other thread several people said 'turn off in your Add - ons' as well as the poster above mentioned and I can confirm * is not in the modules area *.

  Others said "use Add/Remove in Control Panel" and like the poster above mentioned, and once again, I can confirm * I did it and it is more appear in Add/Remove, but the toolbar is still annoyingly there. *

  Yet, others have said "you must have downloaded a special version of Firefox yahoo ' no, we (or at least I) didn't. The toolbar has been installed when I installed Yahoo messenger

  -I can't believe that a "clean" Firefox install is the answer to this problem - if yes, that's all just ridiculous.

  If there is no real answer, I can accept that, but I am frustrated that people are posting answers that clearly are not the right answers because people with problems have been very clear on the issues.

  Thanks for reading, please help if you can.

  If you use toolbars, then try to search directly from the home page by typing the address in the address bar and see if the problem still occurs.

• If the value by default, not to lose information as reboot pc to factory settings?

  I have many accidents and pc is slow. Firefox recommends to introduce you to the default settings. I read what is kept and what is deleted. However I fear that I will lose important data. My main or default browser is internet explore. Sometimes I prefer Firefox, but have had a lot of problems, keep so I... e. also. The default settings will not affect any that is info I have? Still a newbie tech. Thanks in advance.

  Your internet history, cookies, bookmarks, saved passwords and web form autofill information will be retained.

  • Your internet history is a record of the Web sites you've visited. You can actually speed up Firefox by disabling your Internet and other history. How to empty the cache memory is explained hereand how to clear history is explained here.
  • Your bookmarks are links that you saved so you can visit them later. You can view your current bookmarks in the Bookmarks Manager. Click the Bookmarks button, which is usually a Clipboard icon little next to your URL bar and is bundled with a star icon, and then click show all bookmarks.
  • Your cookies are the settings for Web sites. You need not to worry much about the cookies.
  • Automatic web form filling information is the story of what you typed in a text field. The menu usually appears in the form of connection when you type something similar to an entry stored in this document for your convenience. You need not to worry much on information from automatic web form filling.
  • The saved passwords are passwords for your online accounts that have been saved when you connected to an account (for example your account of Firefox), Firefox asks you if you want to save it, and you have chosen to do so.. Saved passwords automatically fill your user name and password in a form of logon for your convenience.

  Your modules, search engines, history of downloads, toolbar and settings customizations will be restored to the way they were when you first installed Firefox. You can re - install any add-ons, engines of search and toolbar customizations you want after Firefox has reset. (although I would not recommend that as an add-on can be the cause of the slowdown of Firefox)

  • Add-ons are optional for your browser that can enhance your experience by adding more features and new features. An example of an add-on is Yahoo! toolbar, although it is technically the malware (I just used as an example because Yahoo! toolbar is installed on your Firefox).
  • Search engines are Firefox settings that determine what site search (e.g., Google;) Bing; ( Yahoo! Search) You'll go to if you want to look for something and enter your query (e.g. "what is the best internet browser to download?") in the search bar or URL bar.
  • Toolbar customizations are preferences that determine how the layout of Firefox is like. For example, if you added Yahoo! toolbar Firefox window by clicking on the Menu button, then click on Customize, this look resets to the default Firefox appearance once you have reset.

• I d/l worm 33.1 and every thing wants Yahoo as a default value.

  I have reset the choice of search engine at the top, but now clicking on a line also passes through Yahoo and offers totally unnecessarily and DNS error, as in this url:

  http://bobcesca.thedailybanter.com/blog-archives/2014/11/both-sides.html?utm_source=RSS & utm_medium = RSS & utm_campaign = Both Sides

  Worm 33.1 made become a brand? How can I get rid of this? Without help, I give up FF because if it will not erase the links, it's not good for me.
  Thanks for your help.

  And why your report displays worm 33.o when the box on Firefox said 33.1?

  I have redownloaded worm 33.1 and the same problem occurred. Besides the link yelled something called Search Settings Toolbar, which I could find anywhere.
  Going through the troubleshooting tips, I have Reset (d new version / edition of) FF and the problem (so far) has disappeared.

  This gives me little confidence in the process. Someone has an idea, what happens? Yahoo paid to conquer the world?

• I constantly problems while browsing with Google yahoo simply grab my research and won't let me come back to google. I have tried everything I can think

  This happening on my macbook pro and my I mack. Also on my PC but only on firefox.

  Hi TheJohnParr, to your Thunderbird (e-mail client) problem, I you suggest have another question for this, and we could concentrate on your Firefox search engine problem in this thread.

  You can view, disable and usually remove extensions on page modules. Either:

  • Command + shift + a
  • Tools menu > Modules

  In the left column, click Extensions. Then, when in doubt, turn off.

  Typically, a link will appear above at least an extension disabled to restart Firefox. You can complete your work on the tab and click one of the links in the last step.

  Any improvement?

  Moreover, the address bar works a bit different in the search boxes (homepage search box or the search box toolbar). If you enter a single word without spaces in the address bar (for example, hobbit or mozilla.org) then Firefox should first check with your provider if there is a known server name. Sometimes, these queries are diverted by your service provider to show you search results. By comparing your search in the address bar and the search box, you can see if it comes to the question.
