How to get rid of rpc.html pop up when browser opens

when using firefox with my comcast home page, i get a pop up saying you have chosen to open rpc.html. how can i get rid of this?

My guess is that there is a "hot spot" that when the cursor rolls over this area it triggers the download of the obnoxious rpc.html coding that drops into a person's download file. Now why someone would go to the trouble of setting up this type of non-consequential ruse if beyond me. Maybe this is just an errant html code glitch? It seems to be localized between Firefox and Comcast (Xfinity). Funny that one message says that each side to this problem is pointing the accusing finger toward the other. Glad, for a change, the computer user is not incorrectly targeted as the source of the problem.
But the issue of a set of volunteers working on the problem and not being able to fix it is disturbing. Hope they (whomever) can solve the puzzle.
I am finding my computer is not able to download Open Office for some reason. Spent ten hours trying to figure this out. Just gave up. I like Firefox but if I continue to have these types of problems, even if not proven to be related, I am going to have to find another solution, somewhere.

That is the snippet container.
You can hide that container or set the browser.aboutHomeSnippets.updateUrl pref to an empty String on the about:config to make Firefox use some default snippets.

You can hide the box that shows the snippets with code in userContent.css

How to get rid of /j2ee prefix from URL when I use the OC4J via Oracle HTTP server

In 9iAS 9.0.2 Oracle HTTP Server (OHS) is pre-configured to assign requests to the Home OC4J instance via the URL-prefix "/j2ee"/
For example, the TEST servlet under OC4J would be passed through OHS using:
http://urmachine:urApachePort/j2ee/TEST
whereas in the standlone OC4J version, this URL works:
http://urmachine:urOC4JPort/TEST

How do get rid of the google search box when I first open Firefox?

How do get rid of the google search box when I first open Firefox?

Firefox 4 and later versions use a new build-in home page named about:home with a Google search bar on it.
That about:home page only shows some snippets and has a button to restore the previous session if applicable.
If you want a home page with extras then set another page as the home page like www.google.com as used in Firefox 3 versions.

How to get rid of rpc-8.html. It pops up every time I open my Firefox.

It happened 2 days ago for the first time. Each time I opened Firefox, the browser asked me either download or save rpc-3. html . Finely I saved it. From now on, each time I open my Firefox the browser opens file rpc-8.html as a pop up. I scanned my computer for viruses with updated Norton without any help.

Deployment: How to get rid of certificate import pop up in Reader XI

I want to deploy XI to our machines, but before I do so, I have to be sure, there are no pop ups confusing the users.
There is a pop up asking me to import older certificates and I can select between "Import" and "Default" - which is weird enough.
How do I suppress this pop up?
I searched in forum and got a hint about bAskBeforeInstalling but after I looked into this a little more, someone from Adobe Stuff said, this has nothing to do with the pop up.
Also I couldn't find an easy option in the customization wizard.
So: how do I suppress the pop up?

I'm on the same road, trying to get rid of the "Adobe Reader Security" popup.
bAskBeforeInstalling and bLoadSettingsFromURL couldn't hide the popup for me either.
What does work is to rename or copy the addressbook.acrodata file, located in %appdata%\Adobe\Acrobat\10.0\Security. But that has to be done for all userprofiles on all machine imho. (copy from the 10.0 to the 11.0 folder, before opening Reader XI).
The Files and Folder feature from the Customization wizard can do file operations, but probably not in all userprofiles?
We need to script this, because the Adobe Customization WIzard cannot help us out here right?

How To Get rid of Exponential format in datagridview when the number is very large

When the number is very large like :290754232, I got 2.907542E +08. in datagridview cell
I using vb.net , framework 2.0.
how can I get rid of this format?
Thanks in advance

should I change the type of this column to integer or long ?
The datagridview is binded to binding source and a list ( Of).
Mike,
I'll show you an example that shows the correct way to do this and a another way if you're stuck using strings in exponential format. The latter being the "hack way" I spoke about Friday. I don't like it, it's dangerous, but I'll show both anyway.
In this example, I'm using Int64 because I don't know the range of yours. If your never exceeds Int32 then use that one instead.
First, I have a DataGridView with three columns. I've populated the data just by creating longs starting with the maximum value in reverse order for 100 rows:
The way that I created the data is itself not a great way (there's no encapsulation), but for this example "it'll do".
Notice though that the third column (right-most column) isn't formatted at all. I commented out the part that does that so that I could then explain what I'm doing. If it works, it should look like the first column.
The first column represents an actual Int64 and when I show the code, you can see how I'm formatting that using the DGV's DefaultCellStyle.Format property. That's how it SHOULD be done.
The third column though is just a string and because that string contains a letter in it, Long.TryParse will NOT work. This is where the "hack" part comes in - and it's dangerous, but if you have no other option then ...
You can see that now the third column matches the first column. Now the code:
Option Strict On
Option Explicit On
Option Infer Off
Public Class Form1
Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, _
ByVal e As System.EventArgs) _

How to get rid of blue bar at top when tethering?

I would like to get rid of the blue bar at the top og my Iphone 4 when it is tethering its internet connection. What is interesting is my girlfriends iphone does not show this blue bar when tethering. Instead it shows a small icon in the top left next to the signal indicator. Could this be a carrier tweak. We both use AIS in Bangkok Thailand but her phone was originally bought from True mobile and mine was bought in China at an Apple store. Of course it is not a fake Iphone for any of you skeptics. I checked the serial with Apple in canada and it is real. I even had it in for free warranty repair one time in Bangkok. Any help would be appreciated. I don't like this blue bar and want mine to appear like hers. It cuts the screen shorter and limits my use of the phone while tethering.

Why am I getting a "Opening tweet_button.html" pop-up when I open certain websites?

Just downloaded new Firefox version & when I open certain websites I get a message saying I'm attempting to open a tweet_box.html (which I am not, I'm just opening pages from my bookmarks), and do I want to open or save it. Multiple boxes open for each site (3-5). Not sure where to turn this off??

I noticed this after the 4.0.1 update. I also have people in my office reporting the problem on a multitude of computer systems all using 4.0.1. I've confirmed it's not any extensions while loading a fresh Windows 7 SP1 on a test box and loading 4.0.1. 4.0 doesn't appear to be having this issue. I tried changing the html (aspx) file to be opened with Firefox, it ended up opening 60 tabs and crashing the browser. However, I no longer get the popups after restoring my session. Though the tweet_button.html is not loading on the page correctly.

How to get rid of flash talking from hijacking my browser?

Help... After three months I now have a flash talking type of virus that derails my games etc when using browser on the iPad Air. I've tried to clear and do what others suggested but am obviously not getting something. Right! Anyone have any suggestions?? Thanks much :)

Unless your iPad has been jailbroken, it's highly unlikely that your iPad has a virus or any sort of malware. I don't know what you've tried, but if this is a browser hijack, clearing the Cookies and Data (Settings -> Safari) and the Website Data (Settings -> Safari -> Advanced) shoud cure it. If you continue to have your web surfing hijacked, it may be your WiFi router that's been poisoned, in which case it will need to be reset.

How to get rid of "Oracle Portal" label(text) when mouse is over Logo.gif image

In several portal screens (for example:
Add Item wizard, Create Folder wizard,
Create Page Style Wizard, Account Info screen, Create Page wizard, Create Application Wizard, etc, etc.... )
there is like a Banner with the Logo.gif image and the text "Oracle Portal" displayed when the mouse is OVER Logo.gif
I know how to replace this image with our own file, but what i would like to know how to replace or eliminate the "Oracle Portal" text.
I imagine the information for this Template is stored somewhere in the database.
I will appreciate if someone can help me to identify where is located this info so I can delete/replace the text.
Any other suggestions will be wellcome.
Tks in advance

Malin,
when you install iAS, there is a directory
oracle_home\portal30\images where all the image files are stored.
for example, in my installation is:
D:\oracle\iSuites\portal30\images
one of the files is logo.gif, just overwrite that file with your own file (but keep the same name) and then your own logo or whatever you want will show up in the Portal.
pls note that there are different image files you may want to replace.
i hope it helps...

Get rid of annoying Recommended Applications list when doing Open With

Whenever you try to specify a file to open with another application, by way of ctrl clicking it, it pops up the file dialog, but most of the files are greyed out until you change the drop down at the top from "recommended applications" to "all applications." This is INCREDIBLY annoying, and I either need to know how to add applications to the recommended list, or to make it default to All applications.
An example of this problem, is when opening a video file. It's a .avi so it opens with QuickTime via flip4mac by default, which is fine. Now I really want to open it with EyeTV, which definitely supports .avi's, and I prefer watching them with EyeTV. But when I right click it to open with eyetv this one time, in the open with menu it lists every other freaking video playing app I have besides EyeTV. VLC, mplayer, Audacity, real player, even my HP printer software for some reason. But to get to EyeTV I have to go through like 5 extra steps.
Thanks.

Each application tells LaunchServices the file types that it can use, which is used to enable the various applications in the "Recommended Applications" or "Open With" lists. If an application can't handle a particular file type, or if the application isn't set up correctly, then it won't show up in these lists because the system doesn't know that the application can handle it. File Types can be added to an application's Info.plist file (inside the application package), in the CFBundleDocumentTypes dictionary by using the Property List Editor application (or equivalent). You can make an application unusable by messing with this file, so you do need to know a little about what you are doing (and always make a backup copy). There are several articles on Apple's developer site, such as Property Key List Reference, and Document Types.
