When I put google (or any other Word) in my search boxes, they automatically open ebay. Why?
I have firefox for 1 year, and, until a few weeks ago, I was very happy with it. All of a sudden, when I open this browser, ebay appears in the search box on the right. No matter what I ask google to search for, it looks for the term of ebay. I get the same result when I try to do a search for the largest area of research. Although I often visit ebay, I do not use my computer for ebay only. In fact, I removed the firefox to my programs, but missed and reinstalled. When I reinstalled, I still have in my search box for ebay. Why?
If it cannot be removed, I guess I just will remove FF of my programs, permanently. I had about it with your new program 'improved '. What good is it, if I can't do a true google search?
By the way, I tried some of your troubleshooting - "look at the top of your screen, and click the menu item called help". I opened the menu - THERE IS NO WORD 'HELP'.
As far as I'm concerned that your new FireFox is no improvement, if I want to do a search from anywhere other than ebay, I open my IE. This is what you call an improvement? !!

I have a constant and continuous problem with firefox. I love the browser, but often, when I shut down and "X" on each page of firefox, at least one copy of firefox continues to run invisible in the background. I have to go in the program manager and to end the process to clean so I can open a new page of firefox. This happened constantly since the three latest updates.
I use a processor of 2011 (6 cores) 64 GB of ram, 6 GB of vid, Windows 7 64 bit Ulitimate card.
I love the browser, but it is a serious matter that really gets in the way my uses. I have to keep my open anytime program manager so I can make sure that Firefox stops. Worse still, if one of the pages crash Firefox, there is still often a blind copy is Firefox linger.
I don't know if anyone else has reported it but it is a serious problem and it should really be address.

For some sites that I visit on a daily basis, it's a pain to have to sign in each time. (e.g., Zap2it, which provides TV listings in your area). However, I like defining the Tools/Options/life private to keep all cookies until I close Firefox. I wish I could set up Firefox so that all witnesses would be removed EXCEPT those to which I have. If I could do this, I don't have to log in each time.

Original title:
Search ranking
I like to use research to launch programs - press the windows key, type "ste" press on enter and steam launches, for example. However, for firefox, I have to type the whole word. Is there a way to define the search so that when I type "fire" or even "tree" firefox is the first element of the research?
Also of note – is Firefox used to come as the first item of research when I typed "fire", but now it is not even detected until I type the word in full. What could have changed to do this, and how I can solve this problem (for as far as I know that I didn't change the search options or other parameters that could lead to this).Thank youHello
1. the problem occurs only with Firefox?
2. If you type the initial letters of the other/a a different program if it appears?

Cannot delete a Word in Windows Explorer file, said his opening in MS Word
I have a regular file to MS Word (Word 2003) that I can't delete or move when I'm in Windows Explorer. Whenever I try to move or delete the file, I get an error message saying: the file cannot be moved or deleted because it is open in MS Word. However, MS Word is NOT open, nor is the file open in MS Word.
How can I delete this file?
P.S. The author of the file is known to me and other files from this author (or ANY other Word, Excel, pdf, files etc.) can all be deleted or moved - no problem

So, when I look at something like 'shoes' in the amazon search box the top row of items flying over on the far right. And most is no longer even on my screen
I checked on I.E. and I had no problem with that, then I guess it's a firefox issue.
Try the Firefox Safe Mode to see how it works there. Safe mode is a troubleshooting mode, which disables most of the modules.
(If you use it, switch to the default theme).
- You can open the Mode without failure of Firefox 4.0 + holding the key SHIFT key when you use the desktop Firefox or shortcut in the start menu.
- Or use the menu option help and click on the restart with the disabled... modules menu item while Firefox is running.
Do not choose anything at the moment, just use "" boot mode safe. "
To exit safe mode of Firefox, simply close Firefox and wait a few seconds before using the shortcut of Firefox (without the Shift key) to open it again.
If it's good in Firefox Safe Mode, your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to understand that one.To do this, please follow article Troubleshooting extensions, themes and problems of hardware acceleration to resolve common Firefox problems .
When find you what is causing your problems, please let us know. It might help others who have the same problem.
