  • Why does the BLOCK REPORTED WEB FORGERIES become disabled when I close Firefox?

    I will enable the BLOCK REPORTED WEB FORGERIES in the control panel, however if close and then open Firefox it will be disabled.

    At the moment I use Norton 360. I have Norton on other machines and it does not turn off the Block Attack Sites nor Block Reported Web Forgeries. My first thought is that I have been breached and Malicious Code is the culprit.

  • Have Firefox & Bing and when I open Firefox I get Ref A and string of characters; then when I get to Bing, no toolbar with bookmarks, etc or way to access mail.

    I made Bing my browser and it was working fine until today. When I open Firefox I get a message Ref A: and then a long string of characters. I click on the home icon and the string changes. After doing this several times I get the Bing search page. I do not get the Firefox start page with the tool bar that has my book marks, history etc. I cannot clear the cache if I cannot not get the history tab. If I go the the mozilla firefox program folder and open it, there is a tool bar but cannot clear recent history, etc. there. I do not have an administrator & password on my home desk top; it is just me. I tried to follow your suggestions, but they do not apply to my situation. I really don't know if this is a firefox or bing problem. I used google before bing and had no problems; just wanted to try bing.

  • Since installing the last round of Windows updates on 3/10/2015 Firefox freezes up my computer and the only thing I can do is to reboot.

    I have tried starting Firefox in safe mode and it still locks up. At first I could not access Yahoo mail, now it is starting to happen on other sites with no pattern. It is Windows 8.1 and Firefox 36.0.1.

    Start your '''Computer''' in safe mode with networking. Then start Firefox. Try '''Safe''' web sites.

    Greetings,
    I've never seen this issue, and I handle many iPads, of all versions. WiFi issues are generally local to the WiFi router - they are not all of the same quality, range, immunity to interference, etc. You have distance, building construction, and the biggie - interference.
    At home, I use Apple routers, and have no issues with any of my WiFi enabled devices, computers, mobile devices, etc - even the lowly PeeCees. I have locations where I have Juniper Networks, as well as Aruba, and a few Netgears - all of them work as they should.
    The cheaper routers, Linksys, D-Link, Seimens home units, and many other no name devices have caused issues of various kinds, and even connectivity.
    I have no idea what Starbucks uses, but I always have a good connection, and I go there nearly every morning and get some work done, as well as play.
    You could try changing channels, 2.4 to 5 Gigs, changing locations of the router. I have had to do all of these at one time or another over the many years that I have been a Network Engineer.
    Good Luck - Cheers,
    M.

  • I have firefox set to delete personal information (log in to websites) when I close it ... However firefox isntead doesn't delete anything, keeps the cookies, and when I reopen firefox I'm still logged in (to websites like facebook). What do?

    Pretty much this: I have firefox set to delete personal information (log in to websites) when I close it ... However firefox instead doesn't delete anything, keeps the cookies, and when I reopen firefox I'm still logged in (to websites like facebook). What do?
    Privacy settings aren't working even though they're all appropriately checked off.
    I think Firefox is saving cookies??

    Let all cookies expire when you close Firefox.
    * Tools > Options > Privacy > Cookies: "Keep until": "I close Firefox"
    Make an Allow exception for the ones that you want to keep.
    * Tools > Options > Privacy > Cookies: "Exceptions"
    You can inspect and modify the permissions for the domain in the current tab in "Tools > Page Info > Permissions"
    Make sure that you do not use "Clear Recent History" to clear the "Cookies" and the "Site Preferences" (Site Preferences includes the cookie exceptions)

  • I wanted to know how to unlock my iphone, since I had to restore it and when it restarted, it appeared this message: "The SIM card que you currently have installed in this iphone is from a carrier that is not supported under the Currently actuvation polic

    I wanted to know how to unlock my iphone, since I had to restore it and when it restarted, it appeared this message: "The SIM card que you currently have installed in this iphone is from a carrier that is not supported under the Currently actuvation policy that is assigned by the server activion. this is not a hardware issue with the iPhone. Please insert another SIM card from a supported carrier or request que this iphone be unlocked by your carrier. Please contact Apple for more information. "
    I need help, I use my phone for everything enclusive to work. I appreciate if you can help. I'm from Brazil. My name and giullia.

    Did you purchase this device from Apple or an authorized reseller? It sounds as if you had a device that was jailbroken/hacked to operate on your carrier. Upon updating the iOS, it is now locked back to the original carrier the device was locked to.
    Only the carrier the device is locked to can authorize an unlock. You will need to make contact with that carrier and see if they provide unlocking services, and if they do, if you qualify for an unlock. Otherwise, you are out of luck. One that carrier can take care of the unlocking.

  • How can I check my passcode I updated today and when I am going to reset all content and setting my iPhone 4S they asked me for passcode when I entered the passcode the one I just update too is doesn't want to accept it

    how can I check my passcode I updated today and when I am going to reset all content and setting my iPhone 4S they asked me for passcode when I entered the passcode the one I just update too is doesn't want to accept it

    I have had the same problem with iPad recently not too sure why it happened but if you are completing a full reset anyway the easiest way is the restore via itunes on your computer and then set up a new passcode again. Resetting via itunes doesnt require a passcode so it should go straight through.
    Hope this helps

  • Hi have just bought a Sony Xperia J and am not able to tether my ipad as I did with my Nokia C3. Why? What do I have to do to solve the problem so I can tether to my Ipad?

    Hi have just bought a Sony Xperia J and am not able to tether my ipad as I did with my Nokia C3. Why?
    What do I have to do to solve the problem so I can tether to my Ipad?
    Is this phone another of the things that Apple does not support? How do I know before I buy a phone that it will be supported? 

    How are you attempting to connect them? 
    Looking at the Experia J features it does seem to support Wifi Hotspot, but there is no mention of a Bluetooth hotspot. Different phones offer different things.
    The iPad issues the message, because there doesn;t seem to be anything it can do with it. But this is not something apple is blocking its more a  limitation or a non present feature of the phone.
    From the Manual which I assume you've read through:
    To share your phone’s data connection as a portable Wi-Fi® hotspot
    1 From the Home screen, tap .
    2 Find and tap Settings > More… > Tethering & portable hotspot.
    3 Tap Configure Wi-Fi hotspot.
    4 Enter the Network SSID for the network. Tap the Security field to select a
    security type.
    5 If required, enter a password.
    6 Tap Save.
    7 Mark the Portable Wi-Fi hotspot checkbox. The phone starts broadcasting its
    Wi-Fi® network name (SSID). You can now connect to this network with up to
    8 computers or other devices.
    8 Unmark the Portable Wi-Fi hotspot checkbox when you want to stop sharing
    your data connection via Wi-Fi®
    When that is set up, you can use your iPad to look for the Wifi network the phone is providing and connect to it as you would any wifi network.

    Hi,
    Check the iChat Menu > Preferences > Video Section > Bandwidth setting.
    iChat needs to see a Minimum of 128kbps to do 1-1 chats in Video
    For 3 and 4 way chats it needs 384kbps
    Set the Bandwidth to 500kbps if it is set lower.
    Also check the speed you are getting from your Internet supplier.
