Every time I click "Home Page" button I get another AVG Security Toolbar tab appear

Hello. Lenovo laptop. Win7. Firefox and Int. Explorer installed. As per title, when I press th homepage button in FF4 I get another AVG Internet Security Toolbar tab appear.

Hi spmorris,
I'd try starting Firefox in [[Safe Mode]]. If you don't have the issue while all of your add-ons, extensions, and themes are disabled, you can try adding them back in one by one until you find the culprit. You should look at the [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/Troubleshooting-extensions-themes Extensions and Themes troubleshooting guide ] and the [[Troubleshooting plugins]] article as well.
Finally, your issue may be because you've been hit with some [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/Is%20my%20Firefox%20problem%20a%20result%20of%20malware?s=malware&r=0&e=sph&as=s#w_how-do-i-get-rid-of-malware Malware].
Hopefully this helps!

  • IPod restarts every time I click the center button

    Every time I click the center button to go into the music folder, my iPod restarts, so I can't get into those files. It sometimes happens when going in to the extras folder as well. What do I do?!

    Do you have any podcasts on your ipod?
    My nano has a very strange problem with resetting too, whenever I transfer a podcast to the ipod, listen to them using the 'Podcasts' folder itunes makes in the ipod's music folder(not playlists, but in the root music menu, before playlists), then delete just the podcast itself instead of the whole podcast folder, then I try going back into the music menu on the ipod, it restarts every time.
    Only fix I've been able to come up with is just creating a new playlist for just podcasts, and putting my podcasts in that playlist and deleting the 'Podcasts' folder that itunes creates everytime I transfer a podcast to the ipod.

  • Console (X-Fi) freezes EVERY time I click on EQ button (All 3 modes) -- HE

    Hi,
    I have the X-Fi Elite Pro and just recently developed this problem... my console freezes EVERY time I click on EQ button... I mean I have to hit Ctrl+Alt+Delete and kill it with task manager. This happens in all three modes. After I kill the process,?I can re-open the console and use it as normal -- As long as I NEVER CLICK on the EQ button... This happens regardless of the mode I am in. If I wait long enough, I will get an error message that says "Out of memory". The title of that error window varies... I wrote down a couple of them... once?the title?said?"modeEnTM" and last time it was "CTTheme."?Anyone else ever have this problem.. again... it just cropped up all of a sudden -- but it won't go away. I did uninstall all Creative software and drivers, deleted all Creative folders, deleted the registry entries?and reinstalled everything... but no change. Hope someone knows... -- ScribbleMeat

    Perhaps you have something else which you installed that is conflicting with the Creative software. Try using Sysinternals autoruns or msconfig to disable all unnecassary start-up items and then see if EQ button still causes any crashes. Do you see any CPU usage spikes on any other processes whilst the Out of memory crash appears?Have you checked to see if your Virtual memory is set correctly? you can check this in Control Panel, System Properties > Advanced Tab > Performance SettingsMake sure you have a paging file set to a custom size of around 2046 or leave it on System managed size. You might want to also try out a program called CCleaner, this can clean up your temp files and registry without damaging your OS or program installations. If none of this helps, try uninstalling the complete driver set again and then using Driver Cleaner to make sure there is no trace left afterwards or go through the hard disk manually (Program Files, Documents and Settings) and remove all trace of Creative related software and configuration files.

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try on another computer
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • Hello, ever since i installed the google toolbar, every time I click Home, a new tab opens that confirms that google toolbar is installed. I do not know if htis is a firefox issue or a google toolbar issue.

    Using windows 7, Firefox version 6.0.

    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
    *Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

  • Kopete crashes every time I click send message button

    Running KDE  4.12.0 Kopete Version 1.6.0, latest arch linux.
    Happens every time I try to send an IM (both on gtalk and xmpp).
    Anyone else having the same issue?

    Bug pending fix upstream, resolution found just not applied upstream until the 9th, see https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=328999
    I downloaded the kopete build files from Arch packages site, I downloaded kopete src the pkgbuild was using, extracted/applied the patch to the one file under the kopete archive, recompressed, redid the PKGBUILD to have it pull from the local kopete compressed file, updated the sha1sum, and makepkg'd, works perfect/OTR fixed and enabled without crashes.
    - Download http://kde.mirrorcatalogs.com/stable/4. … 2.0.tar.xz
    - Extract & Use http://bugsfiles.kde.org/attachment.cgi?id=84367 to go to that file & make the change in the code (or edit pkgbuild to apply patch file)
    - Save the file, recompress the entire kopete folder back into the original archive.
    - Use sha1sum <file> to get the sha1 hash of the kopete (now patched) source files, place that new sha1sum into the PKGBUILD
    - Edit the pkgbuild to just use the kopete-4.12.0.tar.xz file (locally) instead of by downloading (unless you wrote the patch into the pkgbuild as above)
    - Save the PKGBUILD, makepkg -s and then pacman -U <file it outputs>
    The one I compiled I set the pkgrel to 2, that may or may not interfere depending if Arch releases a 4.12.0-2 upgrade for kopete, if so I'll just reinstall easy enough - if you have no idea how to do the above you can shoot me a message and I'll send you the kdenetwork-kopete-4.12.0-2-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz I compiled which has the fix (64bit only) HOWEVER no guarantees/use at your own risk/all that jazz - also note of the pkgrel being set to 2 as mentioned above, however I do not think that will be much an issue as the actual fix is going to be placed upstream in 4.12.1 (9th) so chances are that will be the next upgrade Arch pulls downstream with the fix.

  • Every time I click on the browser I get a Firefox is configured to use a proxy server that is refusing connections.

    I can't connect to the firefox browser. Every time that I click on the browser I get a " The proxy server is refusing connections.

  • Every time I start Firefox, why do I get a Google sign-in tab?

    I’m using Firefox for Mac vets. 34.0.5, and I get that extra tab that opens every time I start Firefox in addition to the Home page I specified in Preferences. How do I stop that from happening?

    Type '''about:config'''<Enter> in the address bar.
    If a warning screen comes up, press the '''Be Careful''' button.
    This is where Firefox finds information it needs to run.
    At the top of the screen is a search bar. Type '''browser.newtab.url'''
    This tells Firefox what to show when a new tab is opened.
    If you want, right click and select '''Modify'''. You can change the setting to;
    '''about:home''' (Firefox default home page),
    '''about:newtab''' (shows the sites most visited),
    '''about:blank''' (a blank page),
    or you can enter any '''web page''' or '''about: page''' you want.
    The same instructions are used for the new window setting, listed as
    '''browser.startup.homepage'''.

  • Every time I click on the button to add an attachment, Thuderbird crashes. What now?

    I get no crash report. Windows 8.0 operating system. This is a new problem. Thunderbird has been operating just fine for months. All of a sudden, I can't add attachments.

    Make sure that Firefox gets installed properly.
    Open the Firefox disk image (DMG) file and drag the Firefox program to the application folder on your hard drive.<br />
    You shouldn't double-click the Firefox application to run it from the disk image, but drag it out of the DMG folder instead.

  • Every time I click on photoshop edit I get a message that the program has crashed. I' ve been using photoshop elements for two years and nothing on my computer has changed. My software was downloaded and I have no disk.

    WHat can I do to make the program work as it has before?

    Very Important, how much Free Space is on your Hard Drive first of all? Click on the Macintosh HD on the Desktop, then do a Get Info on it.
    Could be many things, we should start with this...
    "Try Disk Utility
    1. Insert the Mac OS X Install disc, then restart the computer while holding the C key.
    2. When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu at top of the screen. (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first.)
    *Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from the disc again to access Disk Utility.*
    3. Click the First Aid tab.
    4. Select your Mac OS X volume.
    5. Click Repair Disk, (not Repair Permissions). Disk Utility checks and repairs the disk."
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106214
    Then try a Safe Boot, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, reboot when it completes.
    (Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive.)
    If perchance you can't find your install Disc, at least try it from the Safe Boot part onward.
    Do they launch OK while in Safe Mode?
