When you use firefox, a new firefox window opened and blocked to continue using firefox unless I have a fine. I can't delete the page or even let him. Any help?

The new window is "http://block.policehunt.org/?id=d04201572567089f9b464bbb1b065531". It is said in very rough English that they recorded me have access to child pornography and in order to unlock my browser, I have to pay $300 through some point of payment. When I try to close the window, a pop-up asks you, "do you want to leave this page? IF you click Yes, it flashes and repeats the same pop-up over and over.

The English used in the message indicates it is clearly a fraud... it seems that maybe a virus, even if I have an internet virus scanner.

Any suggestions how to "selectively" delete this 'blocking' window without having to reset firefox entirely?

Go ahead and force close Firefox by using the Task Manager.

CTRL + Shift + Esc > process tab > select firefox.exe > 'End process' button

Then open the currently active settings Firefox folder by using the search box of the start menu to open this short address:

%APPDATA%\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles

If you see more than one folder, click on in the most recent. If there is only a single folder, click on in this.

Search for files beginning with sessionstore. Generally, you will find sessionstore.js and sessionstore.bak. If Windows hides file extensions, you can view according to the method described in this article to support: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/865219.

Rename sessionstore.js to something like sessionstore_bad.js file, so that Firefox does not restore this last series of windows and tabs automatically.

Leave this window open, and then restart Firefox.

If you want to reopen some of the pages of the last session, you can use the tips in the following threads for 'mine' the sessionstore_bad.js file to extract the URL:

Success?

    I use Norton Secure login. MSN & mail is the only site that I can't access. This mind by scary business monitoring, MSN? Sorry ' end that.  I can't add attachments to the e-mail message. Apparently, there are many of us with the problem of attachments. Why I use msn? anyone?

    Hello

    Thanks for posting the request in the Microsoft community forums.

    It seems that you are not able to MSN account or by mail when you use the connection of Norton.

    You can try to disable Norton antivirus installed on the computer and check is that you are able to connect to MSN and email.

    NOTE: Antivirus software can help protect your computer against viruses and other security threats. In most cases, you should not disable the antivirus software. If you need to disable temporarily to install other software, you must reactivate as soon as you are finished. If you are connected to the Internet or a network, while your antivirus software is disabled, your computer is vulnerable to attacks.

  • Did someone met with trouble with gel CC first 2014.2 when you try to import? No window opens again.

    What he says in the subject really

    Sometimes, it works as it is supposed, sometimes it just freezes, and when you click on the window of the program I hear a winows: 'PLING', not the error, just the sound signal.

    I have seen this time, but during the process of exporting rather than importing.  PP called a window of dialogue Windows, but for some reason Windows is not open this window, and PP will not let you do anything until this window is closed.  But since its opening ever, you cannot close it.  The only thing you can do is to close PP by using the Task Manager and lose all the work that has not been saved.

    I reinstalled Windows recently, and it has not happened since.

  • Sometimes my keyboard stops responding when you use Photoshop CS6, & I have to restart

    Since I've upgraded to Photoshop CS6, I found that every one time from time to time the keyboard not responding.  I can't tell if something specific that I'm doing it triggers, but I will be editing an image and press a shortcut key and find that it doesn't work. This does not happen when I first open an image, but usually after that I worked for a while. As far as I can tell (it's pretty random) it seems to happen when I use a tool to apply an effect to an image, like this last time, it happened when I used the Spot Healing Brush several times on a photograph. (Of course it could be correlation without causation, since I'm a big fan of the Spot Healing Brush and tend to use a little whenever I'm editing photos). Note that the modifier keys still work, but all the letters and the keys do not respond.

    Sometimes - and lately it seems that it always happens, there is a sound associated with the shut-off valve.  It is possible that the times I heard the noise, I had my speakers.  It's a short clicking noise - and I don't think that's it integrated alert sounds on my Mac, because I just listened to each other and I remember that noise is different - but the sound is certainly coming from my speakers and is not a mechanical noise from the machine.  I don't know what could be causing this. I saw someone complaining about this a couple of years, who thought it might have to do with a Wacom tablet. I own one, but do not always use it, and what happens even when I'm not using it.  The only way I found to get my keyboard answer again is close Photoshop and restart.

    I'm on a Macbook Pro 2.66 GHz Intel Core i7 with 8 GB of Ram. I'm on OS X 10.7.4 (not quite ready for Mountain Lion).

    Okay - looks like I solved my problem after a few hours looking for related problems on the web.  It is not a problem with Photoshop but with Mac OS X.  The mouse and trackpad 'Universal access' default preferences are set to "Press the Option five times to enable or disable MouseKeys." So, when I use a tool that I'm editing with the option key, key and I repeatedly use it five times in a row, I hear the rattling which means "Mouse keys" lights (and disable the regular keys). Turn this option off, and the problem is solved!

  • How can I delete the page to "Restore Session" appears everytime I open Firefox, even stopping it correctly?

    Since I upgraded to Firefox v20, a problem occurred when I close Firefox properly (close the browser and then exit the application that I'm on a Mac) but when I open it again, I'll get a message. This message is 'Oh it's embarrassing... "and try to regain my tabs I had before me. This also occurs if I have just one tab open and then close it. I was wondering if there is a way to fix it!

    Hello epifight, this is currently an issue in firefox when you close all firefox windows open first and then close the application subsequently - the bug should be addressed in a more recent version of firefox.

    a workaround in the meantime, you could close firefox (via firefox > quit) while the browser window is still running or try this: enter: config in the firefox address bar (confirm the message information where it appears) & search preference named browser.sessionstore.resume_from_crash. Double-click it and change its value to false.

  • I find no 'organise pages' in the new adobe.  How can I delete the pages and move them in a PDF document? I can't find this service, and when I click on edit PDF learn more page appears saying to add/delete/move pages there is a cost per year? It's always

    I don't see how to move and delete pages in the new adobe.  The previous version had a small page icon on the left and when you clicked it you could click the pages and move them.  Or press Shift Ctrl D to delete pages.

    Now, I do not find it on the new Adobe - or can not find this button "organize" in the toolbar or under Tools.

    When I click the button Edit, it leads me to a page telling me that there is a fee a year to move/remove/add pages.

    You can move and delete pages with Adobe Acrobat, not Acrobat Reader.

    You can buy Adobe Acrobat.

  • Customization of file name when you use an external editor - only one file name can be used by all editors?

    I have a number of external publishers defined for my application of LR 3.3 Win7. In my preferences when I customize how an editor say, Photoshop CS5, maintains a file, I can put the name of the file edited - for example, {Filename} - ed.psd. However, if I change the name of file changed to another external editor, say to {file name} - SilverEfexPro.psd, this file name is used for all modified files externally. What I am doing wrong? Thank you!

    Dilip

    Dilip,

    You do not have something wrong. The file name pattern to use is valid for all external publishers defined. This can also be seen by looking at the section, where the file name pattern can be defined (not in the section where individual editors can be configured).

  • Firefox does not open after the update. Cannot open the profile technical, even when you use the directory in cmd line path

    I'm using Firefox on a Windows 7 computer. Firefox does not open after the last update. I read the help articles and it seems that I need to create a new profile because my settings were probably corrupted. I'm unable to open the profile technical, even when you use the directory in cmd line path. I tried the following commands in the command line:

    Firefox Pei
    "C:\Program Files (x 86) \Mozilla" PEI

    Nothing happens with every order.

    I am also running Norton Internet Security. I read a help of virtual navigation features Re article that can cause a problem. The article says to check the setting of virtualization in the internet security software and to clear the virtual cache. I went through all the menus of settings in Norton Internet Security version 21.6.0.32 and I don't see anything that looked like in "virtualization" settings, so I guess that does not apply to me. "

    If you have any ideas, I had appreaciate that your expertise!

    What is the problem with Firefox?

    Could it be the graphics hardware acceleration?

    You will need to probably restart Firefox for it to take effect, so save any work first (e.g. you compose mail, documents online that you are editing, etc.). On the remote system:

    Orange Firefox button or classic menu Tools > Options > advanced

    In the mini ' General' tab, uncheck the box for "use hardware acceleration when available.

    Then restart Firefox. Does make a difference?

  • Firefox crashes when you use Google as startup page

    Firefox crashes and gives me an error message general she had to close for some reasons.
    This only happens when I use Google as my home page.
    If I use another Web site as startpage all works well and I can go to Google from here and everything works.
    In short: FF hangs at startup only when you use Google as starpage, I see the Google page briefly and then crashes FF.
    I would really like any solution because I have always used Google start page and you want to keep it this way without having to start with i.e. altavista and go to google from there.
