I believe that the virus is associated with firefox, I run a full scan using McAfee antivirus, but it shows nothing. Firefox constantly shows no sign that responded to the questionnaire, then it will be back to normal. Or I have to go into the Task Manager and terminate firefox.
There is a fake transaction from my bank account, is anyway I have a remove the Trojan?
Hi leehuiling
Try again with some virus/malware scanning programs. You must use all of the programs, because each detect different malware. Make sure you update each program to get the latest version before doing a scan.

Following update Firefox 36, my firewall was flooding asking me to allow external connections from the Internet to my browser. Looking at it more closely, Comodo Firewall indicates that external websites are trying to connect to Firefox, port 53 to an arbitrary port on my machine.
If I disable the option FF36 new network.dns.get - ttl, it stops. I can't find any documentation or help on this option.
Why Firefox do this? Is Comodo incorrect when he labels it as an external connection attempt? (It has normally been extremely good to differentiate the incoming and outgoing traffic). I guess that Firefox is trying to determine the TTL for DNS caching, but it is not make sense why DNS servers then try to connect to me.
I am reluctant to create a firewall rule to that arbitrary Internet connections on my machine are OK as long as their origin on port 53, tips on how to manage all that this new feature is firmly States would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance for any help.
Hi grammarye,
Yes, you're right in thinking that Firefox is trying to find the TTL value. This is new in Firefox 36 behavior and was presented as services frequently changing DNS records (such as Cloudflare) were not working properly for Firefox users.
Firefox makes asynchronous DNS searches - which means it will make a DNS query and then proceed to perform another task instead of waiting for an answer.
Your ISP DNS server puts in cache only TTL an area for a short time, so if it does not the current LIFE expectancy, he will interview with other DNS servers to find.
IANAE, but probably what is happening is:
- Firefox tries to find the DNS record for the domain that you want to connect to
- Your ISP DNS server does not have the current LIFE expectancy, then connects with other DNS servers to find
- During this time, Firefox lingers with something else
- DNS server, then reconnects to give you full DNS, including the TTL check
- Comodo sees the packets of the DNS server and panic
I completely agree that arbitrary ports of white list is a bad idea, but in this case, the behavior is completely harmless.
You can want to whitelist Firefox in your Comodo Firewall, or continue to let network.dns.get - disabled ttl.

Running Windows 7. Past from Internet Explorer to Firefox. A message screen came the next time I used Firefox questions on public networks. I think that I granted access to public networks, and I don't want that. How to change that?
This sounds like a problem of Windows Firewall. To change this back it is possible to access this setting of the firewall.

I tried to get rid of this program or anything since Firefox for months. I think that I got rid of it from Safari and Chrome, but it returned to Firefox.
I uninstalled, rebooted, changed the start page, reconfigures tried it's a nightmare to the computer. Deleted Firefox and all Genieo and it's still there. I hate it.
I have a Mac OS 10.7.5
The topic: config page works the same on all platforms, so these instruction should work for you on a Mac as well.

- If you see a warning message, so you can confirm that you want to access the comments: config page.
- Use the top search bar of the about: config page easier to locate preferences
- preferences that have been changed and do not have the default display in bold (user set)
- preferences that are user defined ("BOLD") can be reset to the default value using the context menu
- preferences can be changed via the context menu: Edit (string or integer) or turn (Boolean) or by double clicking on the line with the pref
- preferences can be created via the context menu: new-> String, Integer, Boolean

When I try to check my mails the page shakes and I get a warning saying firefox were blocking a pop-up ad. Above all, it happens on yahoo
This seems particularly dramatic. I think that I just get an information bar under the toolbar area when Firefox blocks an inlay menu. The information bar has a button that has a few choices and shows the URL of the popup. What do you see at all?

There are / were three problems:
1. why, when I open Firefox 9.01 this I get a message that I don't have the most recent when version help > on Firefox said I do?
2 also, with version 8 of xx, I was unable to open a new window with a right-click, until I upgraded to 9.01. (Old problem now, but I'm curious).
3 when I tried to uninstall the old version of the uninstall program told me that I had to close the open version, but it was closed according to my taskbar. I also have this problem with Thunderbird.1. you are using the latest version which is Firefox version 9.0.1
From your description, it seems that if you still have the old start page for Firefox http://www.google.com/firefox hosted by Google as your homepage. This old default home page is no longer used as topic: Home is in use since Firefox 4.0
Ignore the message, change the homepage of topic: Home, replace it with another page or leave blank.

* Original title: browser in xp?
now that xp is outdated, which is a good or better browser to use ie or firefox ect... chrome is what Im using now but it is not supported anymore thanks in advance
Support for XP ended almost 2 years ago. As you have seen, the software developers third release improvements to their products that no longer work with XP. The writing on the wall for some time: "Move to a new operating system."
It is my understanding that Google has extended support of Chrome for XP until this April. http://www.Express.co.UK/life-style/science-technology/618584/Google-chrome-browser-support-Windows-XP-Vista
For now, Firefox will run on XP sp2 or later, and opera will also run on XP or later. As far as I know, Mozilla or Opera announced at support XP will disappear.
However, even though these browsers will have the latest versions of their own code - unlike IE, which provides only for XP support through IE 8 - a web browser is only as
safe"as its underlying operating system. For XP, it is not so sure. -
The antivirus program that program anitvirus I try to install claims is still on my computer came with the computer when it was bought a little more than a year before. This antivirus program was followed by another antivirus program. The antivirus program on the computer at the time wherever he bought has been removed until the following antivirus program has been added. The second antivirus on the computer program has been removed before my attempt to install the third-party antivirus program which States that the original anti-virus software came with the computer is always on it. The antivirus program that is allegedly still on the computer is not on the list of installed program computer. None of the two antivirus programs that were on the computer is on the list of installed programs computer. How can I remove a program that is no longer on the computer? Why the antivirus program that I try to install again could think that a program is still present on the computer where this program has been deleted if long ago?
Give this program a go. It is effective to clean up the damage.
