Whenever the self-repair launches, FF open a tab at clickvideodownload. Is - this malware?

It's the URL that I speak;

  http://www.clickvideodownload.com/getting_started.php?od=23-7-15&cd=31-7-15&rid=d2c7c937be61244

I think that this may be a malware site. I deleted the cache and cookies, but it keeps popping up randomly when I run FF.

Finally, I blocked the outbound access to this URL, so that my computer cannot connect to it. However, I finally understood the 'random' trigger... it appears as an additional tab to my presets, each time I leave FF to connect to self - repair.mozilla.org!

If I refuse this outbound connection request, I don't see this problem occurs.

So, what FF does when he contacts "repair"? Is this tool reconstruction cookies and 'flash cookies' tabs or other metadata? How can I disable this "feature", or can you explain why I should not simply do a permanent rule of 'decline' for this connection?

"July 31, 2015, Firefox has tried to establish a connection to self - repair.mozilla.org on port 443 (https)." The application has been authorized by the connection alert. »

  • How to make the homepage to appear when opening new tab

    Under Firefox 40.x whenever I opened a new tab, my home page appeared. When I upgraded to 41.0, opening a new tab displays the suggested sites. How do I have my home page appear whenever I open a new tab?

    41 of Firefox is no longer uses the browser.newtab.url setting in about: config because he was constantly attacked by malware. From 41 of Firefox, you need an add-on to change the new tab page.

    Here are a few options (I'm learning more all the time):

    • If you are already using Classic theme restaurant: There is an option somewhere (!) in his dialogues of the parameters to select another page in the new tab.

    Setting up substitute again tab

    After installing this extension, you must use the Options page to set the new desired tab page (instead of use subject: config).

    Open the page modules using either:

    • CTRL + SHIFT + a (Mac: Cmd + shift + a)
    • "3-bar" menu button (or tools) > Add-ons

    In the left column, click Extensions. Then on the side right, find the new tab override and click the Options button. (See first screenshot attached).

    Depending on the size of your screen, you may need to scroll down to enter the address in the form. (See second screenshot attached). For example:

    • (Default) page thumbnails = > subject: newtab
    • Blank tab = > subject: empty
    • Built-in Firefox homepage = > topic: welcome
    • Any other page = > full URL of the page

    Then tab or click this form field and you can test using Ctrl + t.

    Success?

    Once you have set it as you wish, you can close the Add-ons page (or use the back button to return to the list of Extensions of this Options page).

  • using the '+' I'm unable to open additional tabs. If I use the file and click New tab it will open. I don't have the Ask toolbar. How can this be corrected?

    Before today, when I clicked on the '+' opens a new tab. She is no longer doing this. However, when I open the file and click on 'New tab' it opens fine. I don't have the "Ask Toolbar" as far as I know (this has been mentioned as a problem before). What can be done to fix this? Thank you.

    Can't really tell if it was useful or not. Before I had the answer, I rebooted and the problem disappeared. I appreciate the quick response and it will keep on file for future reference if the problem happens again.

  • How can I set all the new links window to open in tabs, but always get out YouTube videos?

    I generally prefer the setting "open links that open in a new window in: new tab."

    The only problem is that this causes the 'Pop Out' with the right function button in YouTube videos to also open the video in a tab instead of a window.

    Does anyone know a way to get just the YouTube "pop out" work without changing my preferences each time?

    I get a small new window pop it seems to match the resolution of the video.

    Could check you some settings in Firefox about: config preferences editor?

    (1) in a new tab, type or paste Subject: config in the address bar and press ENTER. Click on the button promising to be careful.

    (2) in the filter box, type or paste link.open and make a pause so that the list is filtered

    You can reset all parameters that are not defined by default (the default items should appear in bold). I think that the other is the criticism in this case.


    browser.link.open_newwindow

    3 = divert new window into a new tab (by default) (checked *)

    2 = allow the link to open a new window (uncontrolled *)

    1 = new power window in the same tab


    * First checkbox in Options > Tabs (on Mac, Preferences > Tabs)

    browser.link.open_newwindow.restriction

    0 = open_newwindow preferably in the spotlight for all new windows

    2 = open_newwindow instead of honor for all new windows except windows with (default) features script

    1 = open_newwindow preference ignored (same effect as open_newwindow = 2).


    browser.link.open_newwindow.override.external

    -1 = open_newwindow applies to external links (default)

    3 = open external links in a new tab

    2 = open external links in a new window

    1 = open external links in the active tab

    If you have Add-ons that alter the way tabs work in Firefox, they could be the substitution or modification of these parameters, so check those as well.

  • How should I treat the files that have been opened by using my LabVIEW application?

    Hello!

    I want to put the code in my LabVIEW program that she will handle a file opened with.  Let's say I have create my app as an .exe.  I have my .exe associated with a particular file type in Windows.  If the user double clicks on the file, it will launch my labview application.

    How can I get the information in path of file of the file that the user has clicked on in my code so I can handle?

    Thanks for your time!

    @Ravens-

    If you put:

    SuperSecretPrivateSpecialStuff = True

     

    In your file LabVIEW.ini, it will unlock an "OS Open Document" event to use in a block Structure of the event with a 'File Path' node on the left side.  Whenever the application is launched via a file of the operating system, this event fires (even if your application is already up to-and-operational).

  • Shakes the screen & display different colors opening lid

    HY, need help...

    I've had this laptop for 2 years and never had any problems, but a few days when I move the screen to open, adjust or close the screen shakes and display different colors.
    Is there something I can do or is the time to take for repair?

    Thank you

    Hello

    In my opinion it s definitely a hardware problem.
    Either there is something wrong with the connection or the screen itself.

    It seems that you have no experience in the laptop repair and so there is no sense in doing this.
    First of all, I doubt that you have all the tools to check what part is affected and then you could damage other parts while removing the procedure.

    So I think that you should get in touch with local laptop technician and should first try to know what's exactly wrong
    Then you can decide what you would then do

    I mean the screen is one of the expensive components for laptop and possibly it s not worth buying a new

  • How can I open a tab in duplicate in 29.0.1 Firefox version?

    It doesn't matter what I do with the settings I can't open a tab the same url that I have a tab open to duplicate. I used to be able to right click and click duplicate. Not that the option is always there then why can it be used?

    If you try to open the same URL in more than one tab, then you can have the feature "Switch to tab" prevention who.

    By holding down the Alt or SHIFT key entry in the drop-down list is highlighted to disable "Switch to tab" and see all entries instead of the URL.

    • ALT + Enter open the URL highlighted in a new tab.
    • Shift + enter opens the URL highlighted in the current tab.
    • Cursor right copies the URL highlighted in the address bar where you want to change it.
