How can I get rid of Browser Highlighter? It doesn't show up in add-ons (either extensions or plugins), nor is it in Windows Vista program list.

Browser Highlighter updater box pops up every time computer is started & icon shows up in bottom toolbar. It doesn't show up in add-on list, nor windows programs to uninstall. I'm about to switch to another browser.

https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/questions/711023
if this does not work look if you find it in:
C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\extensions '''and delete it'''
or try search the registry(but be careful) for the word "highlighter" '''and delete it'''
thank you

  • How can I get rid of Browser hijacker in Firefox and Chrome please?

    I was on a website today and it was full of pop up ads. I think I might have clicked on something by mistake and all of a sudden my webpage was being redirected every time I tried to do something. The last one led me to a blank page with something about adcash.com in the url - it was just a url in the toolbar in a blank page. can anyone tell me how I can get rid of this? I have a Macbook 2011. I am new to Macbooks so I will need someone to explain the help simply. Many thanks in advance.

    The pop up is likely due to malware ..
    Run the removal tool here >    The Safe Mac » Adware Removal Guide

  • How can I get rid of the calendar icon that's showing on the top right of my screen?

    I can't figure out why the calendar icon is only showing when locked? When I unlock it it's not telling me I've missed anything and the icon isn't there so I can't figure out where's it coming from to delete it. Help!
    Solved!

    Try a Battery Pull:
    1. Remove the battery while phone is turned on
    2. Wait a few seconds before inserting it again
    3. Allow the long boot up process to finish (takes a few minutes usually)
    This clears most software issues that occur on blackberries from time to time. You could also use Quickpull, a free app that simulates a battery pull without physically removing the battery: http://software.crackberry.com/product.asp?id=2766​0
    A battery pull reclaims memory lost during application usage and clears minor software errors that creep in over time. The blackberry runs an OS just like your PC runs windows and the battery pull is the equivalent of a reboot/restart on your computer.

  • How can I remove a malicious browser extention that doesn't show a "remove" button?

    I'm using Firefox 31.0 on Mac OSX and recently noticed a "JolleyWallet" popup and some suspect "Photo-Zoom V10 0.95.14" browser extension that I did not install myself.
    I would very much like to permanently be rid of the extension however there is no option to "Remove" it as there usually is for other extensions. Is there a way to manually delete a malicious extension like this?

    Extensions that do not have a remove button are installed globally.
    You can check the locations mentioned in this article.

  • Every time I open Safari, I get a message (and a pop-up) that says the Safari browser I'm using does not support Community Toolbar. How can I get rid of the Community Toolbar or at least turn it off?

    Every time I open Safari, I get a message (and a pop-up) that says the Safari browser I'm using does not support Community Toolbar. How can I get rid of the Community Toolbar or at least turn it off?

    That toolbar/ct plugin seems to cause problems for all who install it!
    Close Safari, then locate and delete the following files and it should be gone:
    /Library/Application Support/Conduit
    /Library/InputManagers/CTLoader
    /Library/Receipts/ctloader.pkg
    /Library/Receipts/<Toolbar name>.pkg
    /Library/Application Support/SIMBL/Plugins/CT2285220.bundle
    /Users/<User name>/Library/Application Support/Conduit
    where / is the root library on your Hard Disk.
    If you are running Snow Leopard you should also look here:
    Library/launchAgents/com.conduit.loader.agent.plist
    Library/Application support/conduit plugins
    Note: Safari does not support any third-party toolbars except those supplied as an extension to Safari via the Extension Gallery.

  • What is the file attribute @ and how can I get rid of it

    I converted some wav files using Roxio Toast 11 and the output AIF files have a '@' in the file permissions and are not displayed in Finder. What does the '@' mean and how can I get rid of it. Would love to know why Toast adds it but I posted a question on Roxio's site and hopefully will get an answer to that.
    thanks for the help

    okay, so I yes, it does indicate extended attributes. I executed ls -l@ *.aif and got this

    I then did xattr -c *.aif to clear the extended attributes which got rid of the '@' but the files are still not being displayed in Finder.

  • How can I get rid of multiple pictures at the same time?

    how can I get rid of multiple pictures at the same time?

    Adobe Bridge, lightroom and your file browser (windows explorer or Mac Finder) can select multiple pictures at once and then delete. If you are looking for more than that for information, you will need to be more specific at what your doing, what OS you have, and version of software your using. If necessary post screen shots so we can see what your doing. The more information we have the more detailed of an explaination can can give back to you.

  • How can I get rid of search history in Safari on my iPad?

    When I highlight one to delete, the search kicks in. How can I get rid of the history?

    You can go to Settings>Safari>Clear History, cookies and data and then delete every bookmark and that should clear it temporarily, but it will only be temporary. As soon as you starting using the search again, then suggestions will appear again.
    I think that I may have misread your question - if you want to clear all of the history - use the Clear History button in the upper right corner of the History window. You cannot delete one item at a time.

  • I set my home page to my school website, but everytime I open firefox it opens to a conduit search Bing website how can I get rid of that a nd lock in my home p

    I set and want my home page to be my school website, "northbranch.k12.mn.us" I have gone to option and set it as my home page. Everytime I start up the computer and start up firefox, i get a conduit search engine with Bing. How can I get rid of this permanently and have my school website come up as the stratup window?

    hello tomterrimort, if your manual changes don't 'stick' after a restart of the browser, please look out for any suspicious extensions (like 3rd-party-toolbars or things you have not installed intentionally) presently installed under '''firefox/tools > addons > extensions''' or the programs section of the windows control panel and remove those entries.
    in case this doesn't solve the issue please try this: go to firefox > help > troubleshooting information > profile folder - "show folder", then a new window will open up. in this window look out for a file named '''user.js''' (it might be used to overwrite your custom settings). in case it is present , delete or rename this file and restart firefox afterwards.
