The new Amazon firefox extension prevents the redirection.

Of course, this happened a couple of days. My firefox, which is always updated, suddenly stopped displaying many Web sites. The problem was how a page looks completely WHITE. After a bit of investigation, including a few cycles to uninstall/reinstall, I realized that all the pages of the problems were trying to perform a redirect using a meta refresh tag. The info on the site of support (here) says this was related to the configuration of the browser, but I got the tag configuration properly set to false (the default value of value, which * allows * redirection). I actually tried to adjust for real and, curiously, when I did I got then the message from browser saying that the redirect was blocked, and when I clicked "allow" it went thru! To make a long story a little shorter, the problem has proved to be the EXTENSION of FIREFOX AMAZON OFFICIAL - who has been updated on 10 December. When I removed this extension and restarted my firefox, everything started working properly again. I notified Amazon of the problem, but I thought that it would be important to post this notice here, as well, because I imagine that other users probably have the same problem.

If you encounter this problem (and your "blockautorefresh" configuration setting is correctly set to false), click on the Tools menu (right bars, upper horizontal) and select "Add-ons." On this screen, the tab 'Extensions'. If it shows the 'official Amazon firefox extension' you need to remove this. It told me to restart the browser at this time here, but I did, just to be sure. Which corrects the problem.

For the record, I am running Windows 7, 64-bit with service pack 1 operating system. And my firefox is up-to-date with version 42.0.

  • How can I fix the redirects when using Firefox 30? Windows 8.1.

    I've redirected and/or pop ups using Firefox 30 with Windows 8.1. He started immediately with the download of the said Windows 8.1, so I think it came with this download, and although I have run deep scans and even a pre-start with Avast scan, as well as a scan with IObit Anti Malware, I always get the redirects or pop ups.

    A smart redirection (context sensitive) it's trying to get the money from you. For example, I had tried to stop the pop ups [redirects, maybe] with the pop-up blocker probably integrated into Firefox, but Firefox Help leads me to an # 800 who offered to connect remotely and fix my PC with certified technicians as you will see in the chat below. He appeared as a function of Firefox, not a redirect.

    Just after the chat with the 800 suit, I opened FireFox and he went to the (default) url: start.mysearchdial.com/ and a hash string more, which is perhaps how popups spreads?
    I'm from mozilla via a url and soon encouraged me to download the new version, saying a current obsolete. But he was not going to download it from: http://downloadsoftware.pw/download/firefox2/

    He isn't very smart, it is also resistant to many software removal tools.

    What could suggest you? I tried not many of these tools yet.

    MySearchDial must have an entry in the Control Panel, but may also have fangs in your browsers.

    Control and cleanup that will take a few precautions. I suggest starting here:

    Open the Control Panel, uninstall a program. Click on the column heading "installed on" to group infections, I mean additions by date. This can help the undisclosed items bundle smoker who snuck out with some software, you have agreed to install. Out as much garbage as possible here.

    Then, in Firefox, open the page modules using either:

    • CTRL + SHIFT + a
    • "3-bar" menu button (or tools) > Add-ons

    In the left column, click Extensions. Then, in case of doubt, disable (or delete, if possible) not recognized and unwanted extensions.

    Often, 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.

    Finally, you can "absorb" remain problems with the scanning/cleaning tools listed in our support article: Troubleshooting Firefox problems caused by malware.

  • the PC is restarted, all firefox extensions are removed! # aargh

    Since upgrading to Windows 10... Every time I restart my PC, I lose all of my firefox extensions, plug-ins are OK just the extensions are lost...

    It's frustrating. Some of the programs which run at Windows Startup 'cleaning' can change the settings of your browser. Can you make sure that they do not affect the settings of Firefox files?

    The next time that happens, could you check if there is a problem of a broken modules page or if extensions were actually removed? One of the reasons for the empty page add-on to have a list of extensions would be a corruption of database extensions Firefox. You can force Firefox to rebuild the files as follows:

    Open the settings folder (AKA Firefox profile) current Firefox help

    • button "3-bar" menu > "?" button > troubleshooting information
    • (menu bar) Help > troubleshooting information
    • type or paste everything: in the address bar and press Enter

    In the first table of the page, click on the view file"" button. This should launch a new window that lists the various files and folders in Windows Explorer.

    Leave this window open, switch back to Firefox and output, either:

    • "3-bar" menu button > button "power".
    • (menu bar) File > Exit

    Pause while Firefox finishing its cleanup, then rename these files you will find:

    • compatibility.ini to something like compatibility - old.ini
    • Extensions.ini to something like extensions - old.ini
    • Extensions.JSON to something like extensions - old.json
    • Extensions.SQLite to something like extensions - old.sqlite (may not exist depending on how long you have used this settings folder)

    When you start Firefox back up again, he should study your profile folder and other files to rebuild the list. He will probably ask to approve you some of the extensions. Once things settle down, could you check back the page modules.

    Reappear extensions - or are they really gone?

    Also, you can start your profile folder Firefox containing your backup settings. This article has tips on it: back up and restore the information contained in the profiles of Firefox.

    How can I import Firefox bookmarks, now stored in the folder of the user on the same PC (new), in Firefox? I exported my old PC Firefox bookmarks in a folder [Windows 8] on my new PC.
    When I use the ease of importing from Firefox, it will only import a bookmark at a time - and then it inserts the bookmarks all the main pages on the site marked with a bookmark, not just the one I initially put bookmark. Also, it does not matter the information stored in the bookmark tag.

    Typing a wrong URL in the URL from Firefox 31.0 bar redirects me to us.yhs4 yahoo com search that displays the LAVASOFT logo. It is not the case with any of my other browsers (IE, Chrome, Opera, Safari). So this cannot be a problem ISP as shown in all current references to Firefox.
    This problem started after I uninstalled adaware from LAVASOFT. It itself instead of uninstall. Thus, it is malware behavior while LAVASOFT is pretending to protect against malware.
    Nevertheless, I would like to know how to get rid of this annoying 404 redirect hijack. My home page is about to startpage com, my default search engine is startpage com, all references to Lavasoft and adaware have been removed by subject: config and Windows registry...

  • Firefox extension: 'TrueSuite 5.2.500.16' stopped working after the last update of firefox (30.0), although subject: said plugin activated. No difficulty to make it work?

    Firefox extension: 'TrueSuite 5.2.500.16' stopped working after the last update of firefox (30.0), although subject: said plugin activated.

    I tried to reset firefox and search for similar problems, unfortunately found nothing.

    It is also weird empty space before the address in the address bar

    other extensions and addons seems to work very well.

    Firefox 30 spent some less commonly used "Always turned on" plugins "asking to activate. To check and change this to TrueSuite, you can use the page modules. Either:

    • CTRL + SHIFT + a
    • "3-bar" menu button (or tools) > Add-ons

    In the left column, click on Plugins. Then on the right, check the setting on the right side of TrueSuite.

    Any difference?

    Note to other readers: the original poster had to leave Firefox and start it again until it is actually entered into force.

    None of these records belong to any folder of Firefox, it's all the stuff from Microsoft.

  • ID call in the redirection of call

    Hi all

    I'm having a problem with calling a green number of CRA 4.0 redirection (4). Here is the flow of calls, caller (4161111111) outside calls into RP(4162222222 is the DID, but RP is 4-digit ext=2222) CCM and this RP is associated with a script. Calling enter comments and get "call forwarding" to a toll-free 800 number. Originally, the debug ISDN q931 illustrates the call TF coming out with caller ID = 4161111111 with part of redirect is 2222. And this prevent us to connect to the call to TF because it seems that controls of telco which redirects the call.

    How can I confirm this transfer call show 4161111111 as in the TF caller ID call center and change the part redirection to some generals for the company?

    I tried the redirection of call with "reset called address" the number that I want to, but it seems that the script will fail.

    How can I do a debug of the scripts?

    Thank you and sorry for all these small Qs.
