When entering URL, Firefox guard adding foreign URL at the beginning

Well, it's happened in the past, but now it happens constantly until there are Web sites, I can't access all.

When I type a URL into Firefox and try to go to this Web site, Firefox keeps adding a quite different at the front of this URL so that I can not access the site. For example. I keep trying to go to http://nanowrimo.org. I type in the bar but when I hit enter Firefox happening in http://www.dell.comhttp//nanowrimo.org /.

Of course that the site does not exist. Then, if by some miracle I get on the site I'm doing, if I hit refresh, or try to go to another page on the dell site that url appears at the beginning and I get the error server not found. I use no favorite. I type these things in hand. My Favorites are working without any problems. I tried to disable the fix which adds www to the front of the URL, but that had no effect.

What is happening and how it stop?

Hmm, really sounds like a problem to fix, but the preference of the prefix has its normal value of www?

Sometimes inexplicable problems are caused by corrupted program files. For this we have a suggestion:

Clean reinstall it

We use this name, but it isn't about deleting your settings, this is to ensure that the program, files are clean (no incompatible or exotic code files). As described below, this process does not disrupt your existing settings. Don't uninstall NOT Firefox, that does not need.

(1) download a fresh Installer for Firefox 42.0 https://www.mozilla.org/firefox/all/ in an ideal location. (Scroll down your preferred language).

(2) close Firefox (if applicable).

(3) to rename the folder of the program as follows:

(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

(4) run the installer you downloaded in the #1. It should automatically connect to your existing settings.

A handful of Firefox resettled properly typed URL normally?

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 I ask Firefox to get whatever it is, the answer is provided by Google, why, even if Firefox is my default browser?

    Firefox is my default browser, but the answers to any question search provided by Google.

    Mozilla never has not its own search site as a research site for example bing.com, google.com, yahoo.com etc.

    You can choose one of the search engines by default that comes in the search bar or you can add another site to say http://mycroftproject.com/

    It seems that if you do not use en Firefox as otherwise you would get from search results to Yahoo rather default since Firefox 34.0

    Did you expect from a url of mozilla.org results?

  • When I run Firefox I get msg indicating that the site is not reliable I get this for all engines of search, google, Bing, Yahoo, etc.

    When I launch Firefox normally it goes right to my Google page, but recently when I run Firefox I get a message indicating that Google.com is a unreliable site. I get this message for all engines of search, Google, Bing, Yahoo, etc. How can I solve this problem?

    You run Kaspersky, correct? If you use the SSL scanning feature, Firefox must be put in place to approve the present Kaspersky false certificate to decrypt your secure connections. If you used the discount during the last update function - for example, Firefox says it's a bad performance and offers to restore some default settings - you have to do it again the installer of Kaspersky/Firefox.

  • When I close Firefox and then open it again, the last page I had opened remains open when my new page loading. Didn't help not clear my history and cookies.

    When I close Firefox, windows that were open when I closed Firefox are still open, when I click on a link to open a new window. I cleared my history and cookies and even uninstalled and reinstalled Firefox but that did not work. I had this problem since upgrading to version 29. This isn't the only problem I have had with version 29. Anyone else had problems with version 29?

    I ended up going in the settings to erase history and define it for clear history when Firefox closes and you select to erase history and kitchen and browsing history, the closing of Firefox. Now the links work very well and the last page I was watching until I closed Firefox is gone when it opens again. Problem solved!

  • When I download firefox on mac, it comes with the search toolbar I want

    When I download Firefox on my Mac, I find that a search toolbar is present and I don't want to.

    I deleted Firefox on my mac (even though I like it) until I can install it without the powersearch element.

    Hi Selwyn,

    Have you tried of going to "tools > Modules ' to remove this toolbar? The sound is like this toolbar may have been bundled with Firefox when you downloaded it. Is this true? If Yes, another option would be to delete everything in the folder support/firefox and Firefox, then download a new copy of Firefox from:

    http://www.Mozilla.org/en-us/Firefox/FX/

    Hope this helps!

  • Cursor guard set to zero at the beginning of the address bar if the page loads

    Hello

    I have a boring (and weird) problem with Firefox: whenever I type in the address bar, the cursor will constantly reset to the beginning of the address bar. This only happens if another page load currently.

    By example, if I try to type in something like google.com it will tend to come out as le.comgoog, but only if I opened recently a few links and they always load the Web page. Therefore, it is very difficult to open a Web page if another load.

    This also occurs on the Favorites bar, because if I open a folder, it will close randomly (which makes it quite difficult to open another site), but only in the same circumstances.

    The problem seems to worsen the tabs more are loading - if it's just one I might reset after 5 seconds (or almost) but if I just open a folder of 10 bookmarks then google.com eventually became moc.elgoog because it is so often set to zero.

    Thank you!

    You can start Firefox - safe-mode to check if your problem is caused by an extension or theme (try the default theme).
    If from work safe mode then disable your extensions (Tools > Modules > Extensions or use the option in the window of safe mode) and re-enable one by one until you find the one that is the cause.
    Close and restart Firefox after each change.

  • If I leave tabs open when I close Firefox then shut down PC, are the tabs available to hackers?

    I did not have this problem but someone at work warned me not to leave the tabs open when I stopped because the tabs open when the browser opens again... which is what I want, but she explained that open the tabs without having to re-enter passwords, so even if the PC is off hackers can get into the tabs already protected by. It makes no sense to me, but she is adamant, saying his bank account was wiped out because she didn't close her bank tab on its browser when the computer is shut down.

    If your computer is turned off, it cannot be hacked. In addition, you can set your preferences to not save passwords if you wish. But no, if your computer is turned off are not accessible (for obvious reasons). For better security, you can use a master password in Firefox or put a password on your PC if someone turns on it back, they need to put a password. Use a master password to protect stored logins and passwords

    If this isn't the case, then you can check for problems caused by a corrupt localstore.rdf file.
