When I click on a link, multiple (and by multiple, I mean a ton) virgins of open tabs. The only way to stop several blank tabs opening must out firefox is completely closed. Do I have a virus or should I change my settings?

• When I click on a link to send an email to a Web site, why hundreds of tabs start opening?

  For example, I was with my MacBook Pro, using OS X 10.9.5, my browser is Yahoo, and looking at the site WPR, wanted to submit a photo from a link on the site. When you click the link, all of a sudden an infinite amount of tabs start opening, Ouch. Fast as I can, I must QUIT Firefox for this stop or restart. If instead, I copy the link and paste it into my Yahoo email and send like this, that's fine.

  What is going on?

  If you use Yahoo Mail, make use of the 'action' is set to Use Yahoo! Mail, not Firefox.

• Change the e-mail program that opens when I click on a link in a document

  Clicking on an email address in a pdf document in Acrobat Reader, Mac Mail will open instead of the e-mail program I use, Outlook for Mac 2011.  How can I change the default program that opens when you click on a link?

  Hi Meenakshi,

  I assume you mean Adobe Reader > Preferences > e-mail accounts.  I did already but get an error message: "Error communicating with the server" when I try to send a PDF by e-mail (file > Send file > Attach to Email), even if the parameters are exactly the same as in Outlook.  Don't know how to solve this problem, although simple workaround is just to save the file locally and then send it as an attachment from Outlook itself.

  But with regard to the specific question that I asked originally, I don't try to send a document as an attachment; I am trying to send an e-mail to a hyperlink address embedded in a pdf document open. It seems the setting that you referenced only affects how documents are sent as an attachment, not what client opens when you click on a link embedded in a pdf document e-mail.

  Anyway, I solved the problem of the latter: in OSX, please make sure that in the native Mail application that the default mail reader is the application that you want to use ALL the programs/applications (Mail > preferences > General > default email reader), including Adobe Reader.  Once I put this in Outlook, click an address for e-mail embedded in a document pdf opens Outlook with the address already in the field "to".

• to stop multiple spam windows open when I click on a link

  All of a sudden when I click on a link all kinds of spam windows open. I have 'Pop-up' windows defined on off... but, they always open... also suddenly online pages will have tons of highlighted words hough, they are links... and when I click on them, thinking that it is a link that's another annoying pop-up window. I checked my "plug-ins" and "add ons" and there is nothing I can find. I use Windows 7 and this problem just started this week. I performed a McAfee scan and found no virus... can help you?

  These files are not supposed to be deleted. Quite possibly user.js (thanks for the heads-up jscher2000 on hidden file extensions. A movement bonehead by Microsoft) had a content in it that made all these pop-up windows. The user.js file is not there by default unless you did so it is safe to delete it.

  Regarding the .json, those required by Firefox files. More information about the files in the profile folder can be read using the link below

  Do I need to have a pop3 address or can you tell me what is happing.

  You must have an account set up under Tools | Accounts | Mail to send from Windows Mail.  If you click on a link, it will not lead you to a webmail interface, but called instead a mail client, such as WinMail.  Around that, the only way is to copy the email address and paste it into a new message you have composed of webmail.

• Firefox does not have a Web site when I click on a link.

  When I click on certain links firefox opens a new tab, but does not launch the web page. The tab says (GIF, 1 x 1 pixel Image), but the screen is blank. I can get to sites on firefox to my wife, but not on mine or chrome on my computer.

  Some firewalls like Kaspersky can block content and send a GIF 1 x 1 instead.

• not ask web pages uddenly that appears when you click on a link to

  I'm on a Web page that I want and I click on a relevant link for more information about this page. The link opens correctly but so is another page that I did not and has no connection or interest to what I do. Then I have to cancel the unwanted page and one remains open. It's very annoying and can you please tell me how to stop it. It only started happening recently.
  Thanks - I hope

  I understand when you click a Web link within a site, two Web pages open instead of one. This looks like some kind of Adware and I would recommend looking for malware or reset Firefox (please understand that this will restore Firefox to its default values, and all customizations will be removed in a folder called 'Old Firefox Data' on the desktop)

  • Turn off (preferably uninstall) your Antivirus utility before you perform the upgrade.
  • Reboot several times, and then try again.
  • Disable the general USB peripherals (for example - smart card reader).
  • If you are using a SCSI drive, make sure you have the drivers available for your storage on a thumdrive device and it is connected. During the installation of Windows 10, click on the advanced custom Option and use the command load driver to load the driver for the SCSI drive. If this does not work and the installer still fails, consider switching to an IDE based hard drive.
  • Perform a clean boot, restart, and then try again.
  • If you upgrade to the. ISO file, disconnect from the Internet during the installation, if you are connected in LAN (Ethernet) or wireless, disable both, then try to install.
  • If you are updated through Windows Update, when download reaches 100% disconnect from the LAN (Ethernet) Internet or Wi - Fi, then proceed with the installation.
  • If this does not work, try using the. ISO file to upgrade if possible.
  • If you are connected to a domain, go to a local account.
  • If you have an external equipment, attached to the machine, unplug them (example, game controllers, USB sticks, external hard drive, printers, peripherals not essential).
