Security: Firefox for mobile phishing and fake Web site
Firefox for Android mobile load the page title on the URL space.
If a fake site Web put the name of the page as the user of the website address can be confused.
Suppose that the Bank Web site is www.mybank6567.ext
The fake site may be fakebank.ext this Web site can have a SSL and the name of the page on mybank65.ext can be the url of the originating bank.
If the user opens hidden mobile Firefox link can be easily confused.
Look try to open this URL from Firefox Mobile on Android https://github.com/webcompat/web-bugs/issues/405 you must be logged on github.com after loading the page, if you see on top, it seems to be on the right site of the Bank, there is the simbol of lockpad, and the address that you read is the address of the Bank. The inexperienced user can be confusing.
Oh, I'm sorry.
It is very important issue and I hope that security of Firefox will be fixxed as soon as possible.
Bad image for Firefox in this issue. Very dangerous.
So here I end my question.
Sorry, but I'm not registered in bugzilla and I won't record because I don't want to make my email address public so I hope more people continue to insist on bugzilla for this security problem.
I stop my discussion here, I alerted on the security issue on Firefox Mobile.

{req} Tutorials for Dreamweaver CS6 and sensitive web sites
Hello! I am Designer with zero knowledge of coding, but have been implemented from many sites from the tutorials wordpress and phpBB.
I can design a website with tools CS6 failry. But impossible to get the hang of making "sensitive" sites (I know I should learn a bit of coding, but, honestly, it just isn't in my head that if I take structured courses).
Can someone point me to a simple step by step guide to the development of a sensitive layout? Preferably written (no video).
(By the way: love the new look of site Web from Adobe.)
Building modern websites without a basic knowledge of the code is like trying to drive a car the eyes bandaged. You can reach your destination, but you'll break things (many things) along the way.
CS6 fluid grid Layouts require a knowledge of HTML, CSS & Media Queries because you will need to manually change the code. Fluid grids are a quick start; not a quick fix.

Is it possible to prevent Firefox for Mobile sync my laptop home page
I have Firefox 4 in my partition Ubuntu my laptop and Firefox 5 on side Windows Vista from this partition.
I don't have intalled Firefox for Mobile on my phone yet, but I like the idea. However the home page I have Ubuntu as actually a collection of three pages, and I don't really want to not use on any other device. I really want to visit one of these three pages on my phone.
Which option would prevent me sync my homepage?
Where can I find this option?
What is the best device to access since?There are services.sync.prefs.sync associated with which to synchronize prefs prefs and you can set the pref services.sync corresponding to false to prevent the synchronization of this preference.
You can set the services.sync.prefs.sync.browser.startup.homepage pref to false on the subject: config page.
See:
To open the topic: config page, type Subject: config in the address bar (address) and press the 'Enter' key, as you type the url of a Web site to open a Web site.
If you see a warning then you can confirm that you want to access this page.- Use the filter at the top bar of the on: page config to more easily spot a preference.
- Preferences that have changed see the bold (user set).
- Preferences you can restore the default value or change via the context menu.

Using Firefox 4 and Windows 7. Whenever I have to start Firefox from a shortcut to a Web site, what happens with the following error "there was a problem sending the command to the program". The requested site is loaded after that. without any problem.
If a shortcut is used while Firefox is already open the error will not occur.
For me, the problem was the FoxClock extension. Once I disabled it, the problem was gone.
Hope this helps.

How to open 2 sites on start and 1 Web site when you click the home button?
How to open 2 sites on start and 1 Web site when you click the home button?
You can change your shortcut on the desktop Firefox with two starting URLS. To try:
- Shortcut on the desktop: right-click on the icon, choose Properties
- Icon taskbar pinned: clic click right on the icon, right click in Mozilla Firefox, click on properties
Windows normally selects the shortcut tab. If this is not the case, go ahead and click on the shortcut tab.
You will see the target highlighted. On 64-bit Windows, which is usually either not less the following:
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe"
For the specific shortcut launch pages, you can add them to the end, for example:
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe" -url "http://www.dilbert.com/" -url "http://www.gocomics.com/pearlsbeforeswine"
After OK'ing the Properties dialog box, you can test everything right now to confirm that Firefox is now launching a window with tabs. Either:
- Double-click the shortcut on the desktop
- right click on taskbar icon pinned, click Mozilla Firefox

I had to replace my hard drive and can not get my Photoshop CS2 9.0.2 to activate. I tried the phone and the Web site and have two serial numbers. I can't find a number that strives to speak to a live person at Adobe. I need to reduce the size of the pixel today on some photos and need the program. Is there another way to reduce pixel if I can't get my Photoshop runs today?
