  Right click on the menu option "Send link" seems to have disappeared from Firefox 16 (office). Why? He'll be back. I used this function several times a day (and has so many of my friends). It doesn't seem to be just an add-on to can perform the same function. Help, please!

  A new add-on which will add a "Send link" option to the context menu when right clicking on a link on a page:

• seem to have a virus in my e.mails

  Original title:

  Network networking Internet website URL website troubleshooting Web page program network

  I think I have a virus in my e.mails... have Norton, why it did not work?

  Hi Margoxn,

  1. Which e-mail account do you use?
  2. Why do you think that the emails are virus affected? Are you referring to the attachments?
  3. Can you get any warning of virus for mails? Whicg operating system is installed on the computer?

  There is no need to scan email, parts and that is done by all modern anti-malware programs such as files are written to the file system of the PC.

  Refer to: How can I tell if my computer has a virus?

  Note: The Microsoft Safety Scanner ends 10 days after being downloaded. To restart a scan with the latest definitions of anti-malware, download and run the Microsoft Safety Scanner again.

  Note: The data files that are infected must be cleaned only by removing the file completely, which means that there is a risk of data loss.

  Please post back with more information so that we can help you better.

• Since W10 is released, Firefox seems to have been sabotaged.

  Since W10 is released, Firefox seems to have been sabotaged "voluntarily."

  Repeatedly, I asks me to change my default on firefox browser, despite the fact that it is long established as such.
  It runs much more slowly, with a lot more mistakes.
  I now get apparently screen continuous updating, making almost impossible email screen freezes when it "thinks".
  I now get messages of error of pursuit "(firefox ne répond ne pas) '."

  Hope you can do some alternatives.

  Firefox 40, scheduled to be released next week, will have many patches of compatibility for Windows 10. I hope that will address several issues that you are facing.

  Since you seem to be an "early adopter" type person, you want to try Firefox 40 in his last days of tests?

  Note: Some extensions is perhaps not compatible with Firefox 40, especially the toolbars now of security which tend to be updated simultaneously with or shortly after Firefox versions.

  The following procedure will not remove your settings; don't uninstall NOT Firefox, that does not need.

  (A) download a complete Installer for Firefox 40 'beta' of https://www.mozilla.org/firefox/beta/all/ in a convenient location. (Scroll down your preferred language).

  Note: to retain the use of your plugins installed, I suggest the 32-bit version.

  (B) the release of Firefox (if any).

  (C) to rename the program folder, either:

  (Windows 64-bit folder names)

  C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox
  

  TO

  C:\Program Files (x86)\OldFirefox
  

  (Windows 32-bit folder names)

  C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox
  

  TO

  C:\Program Files\OldFirefox
  

  (D) to run the installation program that you downloaded in the #1. It should automatically connect to your existing settings.

  No improvement after this installation?

  Note: Some plugins can only exist in this OldFirefox file. If it is missing something essential, present in these files:

  • \OldFirefox\Plugins
  • \OldFirefox\browser\plugins

  When the final version of Firefox 40 becomes available (approximately 11 August), I propose to install this beta because will be auto-updated to Firefox 41 shortly after and unless you like software testing, maybe it's a little more adventure you are looking for.

• Firefox seems to have recently developed seemingly random usually do not remember bookmarks, particularly when the pc does not stop correctly. Thank you

  Firefox seems to have recently developed seemingly random usually do not remember bookmarks, particularly when the pc does not stop correctly. Thank you

  If Firefox detects that the places.sqlite database is corrupted then Firefox can create a new database file and import bookmarks from a JSON backup that does not contain the most recent bookmarks (a new JSON backup is created when you run Firefox for the first time on a day), then you may lose the bookmarks in such a case.

  You can check for problems with the database places.sqlite file in the Firefox profile folder.

• I'M TRYING TO IMPLEMENT THE FUNCTION OF PRIVATE BROWSING - I SEEM TO HAVE LOST THE FIREFOX BUTTON. HELP PLEASE

  WHEN I OPEN THE FIREFOX BROWSER, I DON'T SEEM TO HAVE THIS ORANGE BAR THAT SAYS FIREFOX AT THE TOP LEFT. I WATCH FILE, EDIT, VIEW, HISTORY, FAVORITES, TOOLS, AND HELP. I WANTED TO TURN ON PRIVATE BROWSING, BUT SEEMS TO HAVE LOST THE FIREFOX BUTTON THAT I NEED TO CLICK ON. THANK YOU, JANE

  If you click view, toolbars, then uncheck the 'Menu Bar', you get the Firefox back button?

  To turn on private browsing, you can click on the Firefox button, then 'start private browsing' or press Control, Shift, and P keys all at the same time on your keyboard.

  Also, make sure that you update with the last 11 Firefox to take advantage of security fixes and stability!

• Firefox's search function seems to have become the HATS or caps-no specific, so that typing a word in non-caps will not find matching words with one or more uppercase letter.

  Find seems to have changed in Firefox. Before, when making a (CTRL + F) to find, research was not specific or non-specific to the caps CAPS. "In other words, if I typed in"firefox"(without ceiling), it will find the words"firefox,"Firefox", or "FIREFOX", regardless of capitalization. Now, however, the function finds will only match exact same capitalization. Totally, this undermines the usefulness of the service and is a major concern. Please fix.

  This has happened

  A few times a week

  == I noticed in during the two or two weeks.

  Make sure that the "match case" box in the find (Ctrl + F) bar is not activated.

• Impossible to uninstall AVG seems to be a virus or malware

  don't know how or when AVG managed to 'permission' to install and to corrupt my firefox browser, but it can not be deleted now.

  enter in the add ons and tools, disable AVG has no effect. There is no AVG not found in Add/Remove programs.

  since nothing in firefox can disable or block or remove it, it seems to be a virus or malware. have removed or turned off and restarted the browser, again and again and again. restarted the pc 2 times of COURSE, after it has been disabled. always there.

  It's STUPID search, type something and it gives answers without value. now every time I have to manually type in www.google.com to access this site to enter search info. If I have to uninstall this thing without value of AVG in opening the hard drive and taking the sandpaper to these things bright disc inside to scrape away AVG, Im going to do.

• Computer seems infected by a virus

  I am running windows xp family.

  my computer seems infected by a virus. She runs very slowly and I'm unable to access the internet or some programs easily.

  I get the warning message 'disk C is full, there are 0KB available"asking me to free up space by deleting unnecessary programs.
  When I try to do, I get the message "disk C is full, there are 0KB available!"

  in the past I had McAfee and more recently Kaspersky pure, which seems to have expired in the beginning. I tried to delete these two programs in order to
  (a) free space, and
  (b) remove the security programs to download avg or something similar

  When I turned on the computer, I get the error message
  "ms visual c ++ runtime library runtime error." programc:\programfiles\audible\bin\audibledownloader.exe2
  followed by
  "requested the runtime to terminate in an unusual way.

  I also get
  "Download Manager for audio content has encountered a problem and needs to close."

  also when I try to open the internet, you use Mozilla Firefox, I get the message "unable to access the internet, please restore the page.

  any help or advice on how to remove unwanted programs in order to free up space would be welcome.

  I can't find the original disc of windows or any disk recovery

  Unfortunately, I'm not very familiar with computers, so please try and help in the words of one syllable.

  Thanks a lot john allen

  Try to download and run the full scan of the system with:

  If you received any error, try using another PC which is clean and upload it to removable media (for example, flash memory) and turn on your PC and press the F8 key several times and chose safe mode, then press on enter and then insert your removable device and run the tools and run the full scan of the system.
