Want to stop Firefox to display the thumbnails of Web sites visited previously when click on new tab
Since I use my computer for work and personal activity, and I do a lot of online meetings, it's a distraction and not professional to have a bunch of Web site thumbnails appears if I happen to need to open a new window while sharing my screen. There is a reason that I stopped using Chrome ad, now I see that it is a problem with Firefox.
If you want to disable the thumbnails on the subject: newtab page and then create a new pref Boolean browser.pagethumbnails.capturing_disabled on the topic: config page and set to true.
You can open the topic: config page via the address bar.
You can accept the warning and click on "I'll be careful" to continue.
Delete the folder of thumbnails in the Firefox profile folder to remove the thumbnails already memorized web page.
You can use this button to go to the current Firefox profile folder:
- Help > troubleshooting information > profile directory: see file (Linux: open the directory;) Mac: View in the Finder)

There was once a way to have Firefox Web sites meet and pass off as internet explorer or Chrome... has this capacity disappeared or is it the fault of the web programmers at Microsoft screwing around with their code?Found the problem...
EFF privacy Badger blocked MSDN. I reported to EFF the problem, please help everyone in this.

When I have 2 or more tabs open in my browser I want to close Firefox and save the tabs so when I open it again the sites will return. Use to do this, but something needs to happen. begin to close, now it asks me if I want to save sites
If you still want to open the sites that you opened before, in the Options dialog box, go to the general Panel and make sure that the parameter 'When Firefox starts' is set to ' show my windows and tabs from last time '. You will not be asked to save the tabs because they are automatically registered.
If it is set to one, but sites do not open when you start Firefox, open your profile folder and delete sessionstore.js and if there are sessionstore.bak. For more information on how to find your profile folder, see the article of profiles - where Firefox stores your bookmarks, passwords and other user data . Who can help if the file that stores the details of the session is corrupt.

How to display the thumbnails in the default view
How to display the thumbnails in the default view. I have just started a test of DC Acrobat and cannot find how to set the thumbnail view as default.
Thanks George. Seems to only work for individual documents. If I do your instructions, close the document and then re - open, then of course the miniature view opens immediately. However, if I open another document the thumbnail view is not here. I need the thumbnail view to be opened by default for all documents as older versions of Adobe and other PDF software. If you can help that would be great.

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.

I have Dreamweaver CS6 and want to know if I can edit an existing Web site built in front of Page if I have the user name and password, and how do I go about this?
Hello
You must define a site in Dreamweaver and need to set up your FTP server. One for that, you can connect with the FTP server where your FrontPage is loaded and you can get the copy of the said locally.

somewhere on the update, I got a yahoo toolbar, I did not like. Tasks was to bring up a search box and yahoo news, when you open a new tab each time. I was not able to uninstall it or turn it off, no idea where to start. When you open the new tab, it starts to 'click,w3i.com'and then "search.yahoo.com" and has some research trends and the latest news, my network is slow with waiting for all these things happen. No idea how to eliminate it or turn it off. It is not listed in the toolbars or options or modules or plugins or anything. Here are the two links of that tab through, they are listed in reverse order. Thanks for the help. Have a great day.
A new tab opens by default like a Virgin tab (topic: empty).
If this isn't the case, then an extension has changed this behavior.
