The RESEARCH is boring. Tried to get rid of it, but can not.

MAKING RESEARCH page comes on when I start firefox. I think it started to happen with the upgrade of lats. I am currently at 25.0.1 level.
My default home page is NOT DOING RESEARCH.
I checked under modules-> extensions. He isn't here.
It's in the windows program directory. And I took off from there.
I restarted my PC several times since the above changes.
However, MAKING SEARCH even sometimes when I run firefox.

Hi foffan101,
Sorry, you have problems.

This isn't because of the update Firefox 25.1, it is towards other software, you or someone else installed on your computer.

This is a small problem and one thing it does, is change the shortcut used by adding the name of the page, we need to correct this after removing the toolbar of thugs.

See

As you already have unwanted software, it is probably useful to check for any other malware, modern ALL use the tools mentioned in this article.

In future try to take care with all the downloads. I'd say it's worth looking for reviews on the software and the download site. Then, watch carefully and refuse all offers of extra unwanted toolbars or utilities.

Please post back with how you go and if you need help most.

  • I accidentally deleted the administrator account while trying to get rid of administrator privileges - HELP!

    I used CommandPrompt to try to rid the administrator privileges for that when I'm on another user account he don't ask me the password, or install all the files that I had the intention of this account to the administrator account. I used the command net user administrator / active: No.

    I'm not quite sure if I completely deleted the account or hidden in some way, but now whenever I try to do anything that requires the administrator password (almost everything) I don't even have an opportunity to choose Yes to enter and only the no option I can't change any settings on the computer at all by using a user account This being via CommandPrompt, Panel etc. I'm at a complete loss as what to do.

    (Also, if someone was uncertain, the account Administrator is not visible on the screen to connect.)

    I used CommandPrompt to try to rid the administrator privileges

    -> Order net user administrator / active: No. will do exactly what it says: it allows to disable the administrator account. That is to throw the main key to the safe. Here's how you can reverse this reckless action:
    1. Set your BIOS so that it uses the DVD drive as its primary boot device.
    2. Start the computer with your Windows 7 repair CD.
    3. Press a key when prompted to boot from the DVD.
    4. Select 'PC Repair' in the menu.
    5. Select 'Repair' when prompted.
    6. When you are prompted, select System Restore.
    7. Set Windows to a point before you demoted the administrator account.
    8. Plan ahead a little and create, test and document an alternative admin account, even you have a spare emergency House key. This will save you a lot of trouble.
  • My extensions are not to charge to the top and iam trying to get rid of the bar... help amazon tool!

    It has been like that for a few weeks... Help, please!

    It is possible that there is a problem with the files that store the registry extensions.

    Delete the files (extensions.sqlite, extensions.ini, extensions.cache) extensions.* and compatibility.ini in the profile folder of Firefox to reset the extensions registry.

    New files will be created if necessary.

    See "extension corrupted files:

    If you see disabled extensions, is not compatible, in "tools > Modules > Extensions ' and then click the Tools button, on the left side of the search bar (or click on the"Find updates"button in older versions of Firefox) to check if there is an available update compatibility.

  • I am trying to print PDFS from Safari, but can not see the page numbers

    I just opened a document PDF 700 + pages in Safari and need to print the odd pages and there, but I can't see the page numbers displayed when I scroll the document. When I view the same document on an iPad, the page numbers change when I scroll but on my iMac (with the help of Safari 10) they appear not at all - and 700 + pages is a lot to go wrong! The clues how I can spend on 'display the page number?

    The default Apple PDF Internet plug-in used by Safari does not display the page numbers (except if they are in the footer of the PDF document in question), and there is no setting in Safari preferences to turn on this feature. Your best bet is to download the PDF file, then open it in preview or Acrobat Reader, where the thumbnails will be the correlation to page numbers. Then you can select several arbitrary thumbnails using the control button to print those selected pages. In the Pages section of the print Panel, you select "Selected Pages in the sidebar".

    The PDF Internet plug-in installed by Adobe Acrobat Reader or Pro displays the page current and total page in its turnaround Panel. If there are page numbers in the footer of the PDF file accessed, they are not deleted. You must enable Internet Adobe plug-in to Safari preferences: Security Panel.

    Hi gazza.

    Scan your computer for malware and try to remove it.

    You can use the Microsoft Safety Scanner to do the same.

    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.

    Unfortunately, when a system is infected the best way to ensure that everything has been deleted is to perform a clean installation.

    Vista and Windows 7 updated drivers love then here's how update the most important.

    This is my generic how updates of appropriate driver:

    This utility, it is easy see which versions are loaded:

    -Free - DriverView utility displays the list of all device drivers currently loaded on your system.
    For each driver in the list, additional useful information is displayed: load address of the driver,
    Description, version, product name, company that created the driver and more.
    http://www.NirSoft.NET/utils/DriverView.html

    For drivers, visit manufacturer of emergency system and of the manufacturer of the device that are the most common.
    Control Panel - device - Graphics Manager - note the brand and complete model
    your video card - double - tab of the driver - write version information. Now, click on update
    Driver (this can do nothing as MS is far behind the certification of drivers) - then right-click.
    Uninstall - REBOOT it will refresh the driver stack.

    Repeat this for network - card (NIC), Wifi network, sound, mouse, and keyboard if 3rd party
    with their own software and drivers and all other main drivers that you have.

    Now in the system manufacturer (Dell, HP, Toshiba as examples) site (in a restaurant), peripheral
    Site of the manufacturer (Realtek, Intel, Nvidia, ATI, for example) and get their latest versions. (Look for
    BIOS, Chipset and software updates on the site of the manufacturer of the system here.)

    Download - SAVE - go to where you put them - right click - RUN AD ADMIN - REBOOT after
    each installation.

    Always check in the Device Manager - drivers tab to be sure the version you actually install
    presents itself. This is because some restore drivers before the most recent is installed (sound card drivers
    in particular that) so to install a driver - reboot - check that it is installed and repeat as
    necessary.

    Repeat to the manufacturers - BTW in the DO NOT RUN THEIR SCANNER device - check
    manually by model.

    Look at the sites of the manufacturer for drivers - and the manufacturer of the device manually.

    If you update the drivers manually, then it's a good idea to disable the facilities of driver under Windows
    Updates, that leaves about Windows updates but it will not install the drivers that will be generally
    older and cause problems. If updates offers a new driver and then HIDE it (right click on it), then
    get new manually if you wish.

  • trying to get rid of a single color; would love advice

    Hello

    I have a few partitions (black, horizontal bars, musical notes, treble keys, etc. - sorry, I'm not a musician so I can't be describing things exactly) I want to include in an InDesign book.  I imported these bars and notes in Photoshop and followed a video tutorial - I have tried to get rid of all the white, then I can pose this music on a background of my choice.  It worked "kind of", but it seems there are other shades of white, between the horizontal bars and around the notes themselves, so all of that/those other shades of white remained.

    So... given that trying to get rid of white did not work, I have to approach it differently?  Perhaps, if black is all black even, I could get Photoshop save just black?

    If it's a better approach, is a person mind give me a tip or two on how to best proceed?

    Thank you very much

    Malcolm

    Place your pattern of music on a layer on your chosen background.

    Then change the blending mode of the layer from Normal to multiply and the white background of the layer will disappear.

    Another option, according to the shades of gray in the layer, is to double-click on the layer in the layers panel to bring up the Styles of music.

    Then in the lower segment as seen here, slowly move the marker on the left
