Why was designed to limit FireFox unusable?

I just switch to FireFox after having been a user of IE since Microsoft released it. After using it for a week, I'm almost ready to uninstall it and go back to IE. I wonder if there are others who share my opinion or will I be unreasonable? I hope that this forum is monitored by developers who could comment.

Firefox has desperately needed the ability to allow a user to deliberately ignore temporarily its propensity to deny access to a site because the site has a problem with its security certificate. While I enjoyed the FireFox offers enhanced security, we do not live in a perfect world, and many (most?) sites have minor problems with their certificates to secure connection. Apart from this love, I'm as long as there is this problem (for me) it's a little like buy the car of your dreams and then discover that all the doors have been welded valve after taking delivery, you can admire the style and look elegant, but don't go you anywhere!

I realize FireFox probably not consider this as a bug as it is following "safety record" and works as expected, but come on folks - allow the user control... install a neutralization button, the user can choose to temporarily visit the site until it is ready to assume the responsibility to do.

The www.jscfcu.org has a string of appropriate certificate installed and should work without the need to add an exception.

You can check the certificate through a site like this string:

What security (firewall, antivirus) software do you have?

Some monitor of secure connections and send their own certificate.

Also, make sure that the date and time on your computer are correct.

Try renaming the file cert8.db in the Firefox profile folder in cert8.db.old or remove the cert8.db file to remove the intermediate certificates that Firefox has stored.

If it helped to solve the problem, then you can delete the renamed file cert8.db.old.

Otherwise you can rename (or copy) the file cert8.db.old to cert8.db to restore previous intermediary certificates.

Firefox automatically records the intermediate certificates when you visit Web sites that send such a certificate.

You must remove or rename secmod.db (secmod.db.old) as well.

  • HA Question - why is there a limit of 4 host failure

    Hi guys,.

    Can anyone tell, why is there a maximum of 4 HA host failure while we configure up to 32 ESX server in the cluster?

    I don't understand, the concept behind this. It was even Vi3 & Vi4... Any ideas?

    See you soon

    In a VMware HA cluster, there are primary and secondary nodes. A maximum of five main nodes in a cluster is supported by VMware. If you lose the five cluster nodes or more, it is possible that you lose all of your primary nodes. This is why there is a limit of a maximum of four host HA chess in a cluster. See for more information Deepdive HA.

  • Someone called the Aztec media was implying in my Firefox browser. Who are and how to restore the traditional firefox home page?

    A company called Aztec Media was implying in my Firefox browser. I tried to download Firefox again, but it remains incorporated. He has an extremely irritating House but, more seriously, I think he broke my security.

    Aztec media seems to be based in Cyprus, I have no idea where they came from.

    I suggest an analysis of comprehensive anti-malware running on your system. Download http://www.malwarebytes.org/ Malwarebytes and a scan of your system. You can run a scan in safe mode.

    I suspect that you have ad-ware on your computer which forces Firefox to change its home page every time it starts.

    Every night (a1) and (a2) Aurora built updated every day, so if you use such a developer version you will see an update every day (sometimes more than once a day in the case of a respin). These alpha versions are more intended to be experienced testers, because you may experience stability and regression of the questions at any time. The beta version (currently Firefox 25) can be useful for testing Web sites to see if they're going to get broken in the next Firefox release and file a bug report, if necessary.

    Note that you must always install such version of development alongside a stable version and use a separate profile for each version folder.

    I currently have Firefox 9.0. Why the start page for firefox keep telling me that I don't have the latest version?

    You may need the old start page. Go to Firefox > Options and in the pane general, under Startup, click on restore by default. The page you have probably (http://google.com/firefox) only served to 3.6 (and tells you you are outdated), but some users seem to have gotten stuck on it after updating to Firefox 4 or upper version.

  • Why was the full Inbox folder when there is no message in the folder of outlook express?

    Original title: failure of Outlook Express

    I apologize if I am in the wrong category, but there isn't one for Outlook Express. I encountered a strange problem with OE. My client always uses OE for their emails and all of a sudden a person has lost the ability to receive emails. After some research, I found that their Inbox.dbx file exceeded the capacity of 2 GB. Juggling which corrects the problem.

    But my question is why was the folder Inbox full, when there is no message in the folder? When I opened the OE to try to resolve the problem, the Inbox was empty! Second question is how can I keep this does not happen?

    [Transferred from Internet Explorer]

     
    I do not use Outlook, but it has nothing to do with archiving. Only, you do not see messages once you remove them, but they are still on your drive hard until you compact.
     
  • WIN 64: The application is valid but was designed for a different system (32-bit).

    I have an application written in Toolbook 4.0 (WIN 95 to 1996). It works fine in XP 32-bit. When I try to run in XP 64, I get the error message "the application is valid but was designed for a different system" is at - it an emulator or a way to make a 64-bit computer to run 32-bit code? I know that this application is old but it works fine in XP 32 and I can't replace it witout totally re - develop from scratch.

    There are several options depending on your operating system.

    For XP/Vista: You can use Microsoft Virtual PC 2007 and run Windows XP x 32 inside your x 64 system.

    For Windows 7 (Pro and Ultimate only): you can use Windows Virtual PC, which comes with a copy of Windows XP on the inside to run legacy applications.

  • If I switch to windows 7, I'll beable to run a program 16-bit legacy that was designed for windows XP?

    If I switch to windows 7, I'll beable to run a program 16-bit legacy that was designed for windows XP?

    There are a number of variables here.  First of all if you go to the 64 bit version of Windows 7, you will not be able to run 16-bit programs in normal mode.  However, if you go to the professional version of Windows 7, you can install the free XP Mode and run 16-bit programs under that.  XP mode runs as a task under Windows 7.  It works fine as long as you can live with the limited graphics.  I have 900 x 600 16-bit color at home.

    If you go with the 32-bit version of Windows, you might be able to run your 16-bit program in compatibility mode.  It depends of course is the compatibility with Windows 7.  Some work and some aren't.  The limitation with the 32-bit version is that it supports more than 4 GB of RAM.

    Good luck.

  • Why did you Firefox unusable?

    I didn't ask for this update. The parameters have been set to disable automatic updates, yet to restart my Mac has led me to this terrible update. And now I can't use Firefox as many of my shortcuts have disappeared and I don't like having to click 3 times to get to where a click would take my V28 in. V29 sucks completely from a user interface perspective. I guess that Chrome will now be my default browser. I don't have a desktop browser that is optimize to contact while making the less usable keyboard and mouse. Your dev guy shot it shortly. I've been faithful since Firefox came out, but not now.

  • How to get the latest version of Firefox on my PC? I hate the other that looks like it was designed for idiots.

    I hate it.

    Firefox is highly customizable, and you can be able to customize to meet your needs.

    If you don't like the new UI, you can make Firefox 4 look and behave more like Firefox 3.6, for details, see http://www.computertechtips.net/64/make-firefox-4-look-like-ff-3-6

    Downgrade to Firefox 3.6 first of all uninstall Firefox 4, but do not select the option 'remove my Firefox personal data '. If you select this option, it will delete your bookmarks, passwords and other user data.

    Then you can install the latest version of Firefox 3.6 available to http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html - it will automatically use your favorite courses, passwords etc.

    I recommend, to avoid possible problems with decommissioning, accessing your profile folder and delete the following files if they exist - extensions.cache, extensions.rdf, extensions.ini, extensions.sqlite and localstore.rdf. Delete these files will force Firefox to rebuild the list of installed extensions, check their compatibility and cancel the toolbar customizations.

    For more information on how to find your profile folder, see https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Profiles

    Often after I reboot my system, a red shield with a white "x" appears in my notification area with a message of balloon saying "your computer may be at risk. The shield remains there until the next time that I reboot. This bug won't be fixed?

    This bug won't be fixed?

    Good question.
    Assuming that there is no malware and MSE is indeed enabled and up-to-date, you probably experience the effects of a condition of competition ',' Security Center where his thing before MSE does his. It is very common; I wouldn't worry on this subject (even if it's boring!).
  • Why was the swype gesture to the right to view open deleted tabs?

    In previous versions of Firefox for Android, you could swype the screen with 2 fingers to the right, and he would show a list of open tabs. This design was smooth and very easy access.
    Why this was removed?
    Is all swyping equivalent to the new version of the tabs on the top?
    Thank you

    There were many complainants that Firefox has no legs. UX testing, with the entire population, the UI Slides tabs was generally regarded as impossible.

    In addition he caused problems with pages that use the touch events. For example, panoramic view of Google Maps.
