Today, I noticed that my research of firefox has been replaced with a local search Moxie. How can I remove this unwanted search and return to firefox searches?
After I noticed that this Local Moxie (March 18, 2013) had replaced all searches from Firefox, I went to Google and looked it up and discovered that it is malware or worse. I did all that Google has said to do to remove the cookies from this Local Moxie so info page and blocks in the Tools section, and I can't get rid of it. If someone has had this problem and do anyone know how I can remove it, please?
You can also check for problems with preferences and try to rename or delete the file prefs.js and possible prefs - numbered # .js and a user.js file possible to restore the values all default prefs.

When I open a new tab, I no longer get a blank page. Instead, this link opens automatically.
Search.conduit.com/?CTID=CT3319766 & octid = EB_ORIGINAL_CTID & SearchSource = 69 & CUI = & SSPV = & Lay = 1 & UM = 2 & UP = SPBE0988F4-A2BC-4595-B005-51E70B9E0B94
I have nothing to make this change and I do not recognize. I fear that my computer may have a virus, so I will do a scan.
How can I remove the link above and stop appearing when I open a new tab? I want just a blank page.I've seen a shield of unknown virus type icon in my system tray, so I toss it and he said 'Protect research.' I didn't install myself, I install a program must have given me a virus. Research Protect is made by Conduit. I uninstalled search shelter in my control panel and delete the search folder protect program (x 86). Open Firefox and open a new tab.
Research conducted is not more.
I didn't know it was a virus all this time. Thank you for your comments, everyone! I think I took care of him.

When firefox opens as a new tab opens with a video download program how can I stop this
When I opened ffox what it also opens a new tab on if I want to download a video software... How can I remove this.
Thank you
captjackSorry, I read too fast. This happens any time you access your home page? For example, using either:
- CTRL + n (start a new window)
- Click on the Home icon in the toolbar
If Yes:
You can have a second put tab in place in your homepage layout. Please see these articles:
If this setting is clean, please review your extensions as stated in my previous answer.
If not:
Sometimes problems occur only at startup.
- If the tab is linked to an update of the extension: you should see this tab once and not every time that you start, but Firefox may be not recording the 'you have seen' setting correctly. Please see this article on the failure of save the settings: How to fix preferences that will not save.
- If the tab is not related to an update of the extension, please review your extensions as stated in my previous answer. Keep in mind that Firefox is not delivered with all extensions, they are all optional.

Hello FJM8:
YOU'RE THE BEST! The 1st solution (see below) was simple and worked like a charm.
I was afraid I was for a fight against you-know-who, this big ISP one who gave me the add-on (or toolbar).
Once again, your instructions were simple and worked super fast.Thank you!!!
PhilHow should I do if it's an add-on?
Use the add-on Manager to remove the toolbar 1. Click on the menu button (upper right corner) and choose Add-ons. Open the tab of the Add-ons Manager. 2. in the tab of the Add-ons Manager, select the Extensions Panel. 3. Select the toolbar you want to delete. 4. click on the button Delete. 5. click on restart now if it appears. Your tabs will be saved and restored after the restart.

How can I remove icons Google Apps and Google search page AFTER 41 of Firefox Update Options?
Before my recent upgrade to Firefox 41, while using Google search in the search bar, Google Apps and Options icons were not on the search page. After the upgrade to Firefox 41, two icons appear. How can I remove them?
You can get Google results through two other sites, with an accent like the privacy. You can judge if you like better the layout:
I do not use those regularly myself, so I don't know exactly what the differences would be.

I can't drag this disk to the trash to get rid of because he says that Firefox is to use it, but that may not be the case because there is no disk. I want to get rid of the icon of the disk.
What I wanted, it was hitting the green button 'Resolved' next to the answer that you most. Please excuse me if my answers sounded weird, I don't have much experience with FF on Mac.

How can I REMOVE this last update of Firefox?
Before the last update of Firefox has been wonderful! Now, I can't click a link without that it is prevented, and have to click on allow. My games of Neopets and Facebook worked perfectly, but now they are not. I use my computer to play and for the email and not great thing and I prefer to go back to the way things were before the update. I know very little about computers... I want just back the way it was! Is it possible that someone tell me, step by step, in clear and simple language, what I need to do to clear the last updated?
Check that the redirection setting was always disabled after reboot?
It should not be necessary to restart or close and restart Firefox after you change this setting.
- "Clear the Cache": Tools > Options > advanced > network > storage (Cache) offline: 'clear now '.
- 'Delete Cookies' of sites that cause problems: Tools > Options > privacy > Cookies: "show the Cookies".
Start Firefox in Firefox to solve the issues in Safe Mode to check if one of your modules is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Modules > themes).
- Makes no changes on the start safe mode window.
