Why Firefox doesn't mean I download AVG

The AVG site announces a Firefox link for their privacy add-on. Firefox then prevents the connection. Is a "questionable" site, AVG?

I suggest to use any product AVG, duplicate the functionality already in Firefox, are sub-par in how to detect viruses and have a history of causing other bugs and security problems.

  • Why firefox doesn't go very large print even after that I customized to print smaller.

    I downloaded Firefox and the screen is very large fonts and the screen is big too.

    Check that you are not running Firefox in compatibility, or with a reduced screen resolution mode.
    You can open the properties of the desktop Firefox shortcut via the context menu and check under the tab "compatibility".
    Make sure that all items are disabled in the tab "Compatibility" in the Properties window.

    Try to assign layout.css.devPixelsPerPx 1.0 (default is - 1) on the topic: config page.
    If necessary adjust the value by 0.1 or 0.05 (1.1 or 0.9) until icons or text looks right.

    You can open the topic: config page via the address bar.
    You can accept the warning and click on "I'll be careful" to continue.

  • Why Firefox does not insist on downloading yamagata.repo.nii.ac.jp/sakuma_1-171_187.html instead of take me to this page, so I can access PDF files listed there?

    When you use Windows 7 Pro and Explorer 11, I used to be able to access the PDF documents in the library of the University of Yamagata, such as those listed in this index. I have since switching to Windows 10 and Firefox, and Yamagata repository interface has changed. Because so many things are different, I struggled to solve the problem: I can't get Firefox to take me to page yamagata.repo.nii.ac.jp/sakuma_1-171_187.html. Because it downloads it instead, I can't have PDFs on this topic.

      I have made both https://yamagata.repo.nii.ac.jp and https://repo.lib.yamagata-u.ac.up trusted sites in Windows 10 and in Firefox, though it is unclear to what extent that alters Firefox's behavior.  On the other hand, MS Edge also fails.  Evidently, something more needs to be done.
      Archived messages on line suggest that the problem could be a hang-up when "index.php" is encountered and/or that "html" files are treated differently from "htm" files.  Perhaps so:  but how does one fix it?
    

    The server sends the header content-disposition: attachment with the file, which triggers the download dialog box. (Screenshot) There is no built-in way to substitute that.

    But there is an add-on for that. This extension was already proposed, but in the case where you missed it because its purpose was not explained, here is the link again:

  • Why Firefox doesn't create so many temporary files in the cache? Once it filled all space (46GB)?

    Every now and then, Firefox will have created zillions of directories and the files cached in the directory for a Firefox profile. The directories are called 0 (zero) and F (using the hexagonal as numbers names, i.e.g), and within each of them will be more directories (with two names of hexadecimal digit). The last time this happened (2 weeks ago), these directories ate ALL my free space on the hard drive (about 46 GB of a value).

    Why does this happen? Can I stop it from happening? If so, how?

    Thank you.

    Yes, it should be easy reset.

    It can be put in

    • Options-> | Advanced | --> | Network | -> Web content caching
      Management of auto-cache to replace]
    • See #w cached web-contentweb-content-_cached

    Probably your auto adjustment has been replaced and the box should uncheck.

    I know that Firefox split cache up like this IIRC it allows faster cache and solves fragmentation issues.

    46GB which seems a surprising amount and cannot be good if he eats all the hard disk space. I also know that the file places.sqlite is a variable size, but it is based on the system in use.

    The regular HTTP cache is also defined without doubt intelligently, but can be replaced by the user
    This has some background info

    My own settings seen in everything: support are

    browser.cache.disk.capacity	358400
    browser.cache.disk.smart_size_cached_value	266240
    browser.cache.disk.smart_size.first_run	false
    

    My use of the cache is limited to about 350 MB

  • Why Firefox doesn't open the printer dialog box whenever it starts

    When Firefox opens the printer dialog box opens automatically - why and how can I make sure that he does this.
    This never used to happen on previous versions of firefox

    Some web pages automatically shows the print dialog box. In particular, the pages Web sites have specially formatted for printing can do.

    Restore you tabs that you have opened previously, or commissioning with your home page (s)? I suspect that one of them generates the dialog box. You can view by clicking on each of them and reload the page to see if it's on this page.

  • Why Firefox doesn't let me go to Google when it is in the toolbar anyway?

  • Why firefox does not cause a download to have an extension .part. How can I get rid of him.

    What are the causes of .part files

    Hello, as long as the download process isn't over a file gets the extension .part added - this is the expected behavior in firefox...

  • Why Firefox won't let me download anything?

    Basically, I had a problem these days. I can't download anything on Firefox or another browser, I try to use. Files download without problem, and when he's doing so I can still see the files under development in the appropriate folders.

    However, when the download is complete, the file just... disappears. It's the same for every file I try to download, not just one or two. Ranging from games, music, etc.

    When I search upwards in the start menu, it appears, but when I click on it, he said, it is looking for the file, but I can choose to search for it myself, leaving me very confused. Go to the location of the file takes me to recent, where it shows the files that I downloaded as 1 KB shortcuts, but with the original file nowhere to be found.

    If I may note, after downloading these files disappearing always occupy all the space on my drive that they argued that they could not only 1 KB. In addition, about a week or two before this happened, my computer mysteriously started losing a lot of space on the C: drive, to the point where I got a warning for having such space low; even if I was not doing something. Not sure if that plays one any part in this regard, but I thought I would add that in any way.

    Someone here has a solution to this? I wish I had answers, please.

    If download hangs at the last minute (just before reaching 100%), the cause may be an antivirus software that tries to parse the file and during this process the instance of Firefox crashes.

    To resolve the issue, try disabling the analysis as follows:

    1. In the address bar, type Subject: config and press enter. The subject: config "this might void your warranty!" warning page may appear.
    2. Click on I'll be careful, I promise!, to continue on the subject: config page. A list of parameters must appear
    3. Filter the list by typing in the search bar at top. Enter scanWhenDone. Now you should find the "browser.download.scanWhenDone" preference.
    4. Double-click this preference to set the value to false.
    5. Then, try to download something and see if it still crashes.

    Please reply and let us know if this helped you!

  • Why Firefox doesn't load the JCPenney update web page?

    I just spent an hour on the phone with JCPenney, and then we are cut off. The gal is telling me where things are running on their new website, and I'm telling him that no such thing appears on my page.

    After that, we got cut, I opened Google Chrome just for the heck of it and used my LastPass to open a session for JCPenney. LO & this IS! All these things the gal was trying to tell me about the page - are actually on the page.

    Now why Google Chrome will load the new site of JCPenney as Firefox continues to load the old site?

    Thanks a bunch! It worked.

  • Why Firefox stop working after I downloaded an update?

    I got a message yesterday, asking me to update my Firefox. I ignored it, and unfortunately, Firefox crashed three times during the day (yesterday). Now today, I decided to try to download the new update. I clicked on the Firefox button, help, on Firefox and as a first step, it froze and nothing happened. I tried the same process: Firefox/help/to what Firefox this time, it uploaded, then I got a message from 'apply' update. Immediately, he had logged out of Firefox so I thought that this meant that I had to shut down my computer I did. Then, when I restarted the computer, I clicked on Firefox and saw the message: Firefox has stopped working. What is going on? Help, please!

    It could be that the installation process was interrupted and didn't finish. Try using another browser to download and install a new copy of mozilla.org/firefox

  • Why Firefox doesn't save my tabs from the previous session although I chose to do it in the options?

    Firefox does not save my tabs from the previous session, although I have chosen in options, to save my tabs from the previous session.

    Firefox 4 saves the previous session automatically, so it is no longer necessary for the dialog box asking if you want to save the current session.

    Use ' file > exit ' or ' Firefox > output "If you want to restore multiple windows.

    You can use "Firefox > history > restore previous Session ' to get the previous session at any time.

    There is also a button 'Restore previous Session' on the default on: Home home page.

    Another possibility is to use:

    Make sure that you do not remove the navigation, search and download history on Firefox to clear the browsing history when you close Firefox.

  • Why Firefox doesn't let me add an exception?

    Firefox tells me that a site has an invalid security certificate, I know. It ask if I want to add an Exception and I click-to-add - on. It appears the Add Security Exception window and this window tells me that this site has a valid certificate and there is no need to add an exception; but I should add an exception and he won't do it for me. Why?
    I work in a secure test lab and use Firefox to connect to our systems under test. Every time that we have change or add hardware to add exceptions to connect to a system. I did it for years with Firefox, but now Firefox 4 seems confused. We must now use AE, which I wouldn't have enough.


  • Why firefox doesn't answer after that I submit my crash report?

    When I open Mozilla, Mozilla's Crash report screen comes up. After I sent the report, another Mozilla Crash report screen appears asking to send another report. I have dk what crash ID is. When I go to the summary report, it is incredibly long.

    User Agent

    Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 7.0; Windows NT 5.1; Trident/4.0; .NET CLR 1.0.3705; .NET CLR 1.1.4322 .NET CLR 2.0.50727;. PC Media Center 4.0; .NET CLR 3.0.4506.2152; .NET CLR 3.5.30729;. yie8)

    Hmm, this is her nasty. We will see if we cannot solve it.

    I would need a few details to help better, if the solutions below does not work. I need to know what options are selected in the reporter on the accident, and one of the crushing of the reports will also be very useful - don't you worry that it's long, useful data on why this happens can probably be found somewhere in there. See the Mozilla Crash Reporter article on how to find reports, "Reports outside Firefox display" section points to where you can find the reports.

    But first, lets see if we can not get Firefox started without crashing - here is a link explaining how to start Firefox in Firefox to solve the issues in Safe Mode. Make sure that no instance of Firefox is running before you start Firefox Safe Mode - you can check this by pressing Ctrl + Alt + Delete to bring up the Task Manager, and under processes tab verify that there are no firefox.exe in the list. If there is, highlight it with the mouse and kill the process. Then start Firefox in Mode safe of Firefox as explained in this article.

    For a first try, just to click on the button 'Continue in Mode safe' and see if Firefox starts.

    If this brings Firefox to life, it is probably an extension, a theme (or a combination) causing accidents. Close Firefox and restart in Safe Mode and this time mark "Disable all add-ons" and click the make changes and restart"" button. This will disable all add-ons (extensions, themes and plugins) and restart Firefox in normal mode. If it starts, you can start allowing your modules one by one to find the cause of the accident.
    When you have found the culprit add-on, you can again start Mode without failure of Firefox and disable all add-ons and then start Firefox in normal mode, uninstall the fisherman and reactivate all your other addons.

    Please post back here on the problematic add-on information (and all the details, you can find about it), so it can be studied further.

    Let me know how the above work, and if I can be of further assistance. Detailed feedback is appreciated and helps us help more users with similar problems.
