A site pops up on every text link on other sites, i have uninstalled, blocked it and removed cookies but cant stop the pop up

Every time I try to access any text link on any site, a games site popup appears over the lin so that I cannot access the link, only the popup.
I do not recall signing up for this site.

  • I'm getting this error "sec_error_ocsp_bad_http_response" on several sites with FF 6.0.2 and earlier versions, but not getting the error with IE.

    I've been getting this error on several websites, this is the latest one it just came up on. I got it while trying to sign onto this page.
    I am able to connect using IE 9, Windows 7 Enterprise.

    Under Advanced>Encryption:Certificate>Validation both boxes were checked, to Use OCSP server to validate the certificate and if the connection fails, then to consider the certificate as Invalid.
    I unchecked the second box (consider the cert as invalid) and now I am able to connect to the websites. This is a business computer and I don't surf with it very much (when I do it is to answer IT questions using Google searches) so I'm not too concerned about turning off the validation.
    Thanks for you assistance to both '''cor-el''' and to''' mha007'''.

  • Why every time I try to download after effect CS5 trial it says 'illegal seek' but its from the Adobe website? is it because of lion? why?

    Why every time I try to download after effect CS5 trial it says 'illegal seek' but its from the Adobe website? is it because of lion? why?

    It isn't Lion. It might be the browser you are using or it could be an issue with adobe's site.
    Try a different browser and if that doesn't work, contact adobe and let them know you are having problems.

    Hi Srinivasa,
    I guess, you didn't completed the initial setup schemaprep and adprep before starting the installation. You can do it as follows:
    1. Open command Prompt as administrator and browse to the root of installation cd and run Setup.exe /PrepareSchema /IAcceptExchangeServerLicenseTerms
    After finishing this,
    2. Setup.exe /PrepareAD /OrganizationName:"<organization name>" /IAcceptExchangeServerLicenseTerms
    3. To prepare all domains within the forest run Setup.exe /PrepareAllDomains /IAcceptExchangeServerLicenseTerms. If you want to prepare a specific domain run Setup.exe /PrepareDomain:<FQDN of the domain you want to prepare> /IAcceptExchangeServerLicenseTerms
    4. Once you complete all of the 3 steps, install the pre-requisities for Exchange 2013
    5. Finally, run the setup program
    Hope this will help you

  • The Silverlight plugin crashes every time i try to watch a video at the Universal Sports website. I have uninstalled this plugin and re-enstalled it many times with no success

    The Silverlight plugin crashes every time i try to watch a video at the Universal Sports website. I have uninstalled this plugin and re-enstalled it many times with no success

    It doesn't matter what I do I still get the plugin to crash. I've removed every trace of Internet Explorer in the registry. Download fresh versions of Mozilla and Silverlight. I uninstalled both of them and cleaned any lingering files. Reinstalled Mozilla, and Silverlight. Same error. No more movies for me. :>/ See entry below.

  • Any ideas how I can insert a pdf into word, using the insert object option. However the pdf i want to insert has text and lines annotated, but once inserted the comments don't appear????  any help would be greatly appreciated.

    You will need to find a forum for MS Word since that is the software that you are trying to manipulate in this.  If you think the processing/creation of the PDF plays a role then you should ask in the forum for the software that you are using to create the PDF.
    This forum is for issue regarding downloading and installing Adobe trial products, so in any circumstance, your issue does not fit in this forum.

    Check exception list of your Firefox password Manager and check if your site is there or not?

  • Cannot click on bubble links for at least two different sites pogo and my msn. I have also had prblems clicking on links within a website I have to right click and then click open in new tab.

    pogo no longer loads games at all. I can't even right click top open in new tab. I have also found that I can not use search bar after going to a site i have to actually click home button and let it reload before I can use search button. i have uninstalled and reinstalled firfox already.

    You can middle-click a link to open the link in a new tab.

  • When I copy and paste a link into the body of my email, the link won't light up in blue and underline becoming a working link. I do not have this problem with Explorer. Who do I get the link to work?

    Not sure what more I need to say. If you still don't understand, let me know.

    In Rich Text mode, there's an "Add a link" button (an Earth with two chain links in front of it) in the toolbar, which opens a window where you can type a web address. Yahoo! Mail then inserts it into your email as a link.

  • I keep getting sent to weird web sites I have never asked for and dont recognize. Is this a Firefox issue or a Google issue or a gremlin issue? It has recently gotten much worse; sometimes I cant back out of it and have to restart everything.

    This sometimes happens when I am on a web site of my choosing or on Google. I use Google as my search engine. It's really strange to ask to go to one page and end up on something from out of left field. Today, for the first time I had to close out of Firefox and start all over. Please feel free to email with questions; I'm not sure what else to tell you.

  • I have a macbook pro,and my finger swipe to make the text larger isn't working... is there a setting i have to check to make this feature work again?

    on the mousepad of the macbook, if you take your thumb and index finger and swipe them either together,or apart,it make the text smaller or bigger... this used to work on firefox,but doesn't seem to work anymore,and i was wondering if there is a setting that i can change to get this working again....

    Some gestures have been removed in Firefox 4 and later.
    You can restore the zoom feature by changing the values of the related prefs on the <b>about:config</b> page.
    browser.gesture.pinch.in -> <b>cmd_fullZoomReduce</b>
    browser.gesture.pinch.in.shift -> <b>cmd_fullZoomReset</b>
    browser.gesture.pinch.out -> <b>cmd_fullZoomEnlarge</b>
    browser.gesture.pinch.out.shift -> <b>cmd_fullZoomReset</b>
    browser.gesture.pinch.latched -> <b>false</b>
    To open the <i>about:config</i> page, type <b>about:config</b> in the location (address) bar and press the "<i>Enter</i>" key, just like you type the url of a website to open a website.<br />
    If you see a warning then you can confirm that you want to access that page.<br />
    *Use the Filter bar at to top of the about:config page to locate a preference more easily.
    *Preferences that have been modified show as bold(user set).
    *Preferences can be reset to the default or changed via the right-click context menu.

  • My SCCM 2007 Secondary Site Servers have multiple "SMS_SiteSystemToSiteServerConnection_ SiteCode " and "SMS_SiteToSiteConnection_ SiteCode " local groups

    My organization is going through a SCCM 2012 migration and I was asked about our current SCCM 2007 Secondary Sites and when I remoted into my secondary site servers I saw that two of the three servers have multiple "SMS_SiteSystemToSiteServerConnection_<SiteCode>"
    and "SMS_SiteToSiteConnection_<SiteCode>" local groups. 
    This just seemed quite odd and I wanted to know if anyone has dealt with this before.
    Thank you

    Thanks for your reply Eswar.
    One of the SMS_SiteToSiteConnection_<SiteCode>
    groups on two of my Secondary Site servers I believe are configured correctly and they both have my Primary Site Server as a member, but the
    SMS_SiteSystemToSiteServerConnection_<SiteCode> group is empty. Is the
    SMS_SiteSystemToSiteServerConnection_<SiteCode> group supposed to contain my Primary Site server as well? Both the SMS_SiteSystemToSiteServerConnection_<SiteCode>
    and the
    SMS_SiteToSiteConnection_<SiteCode> groups on my Primary Site Server have my Secondary Site Servers as members. 
    Is this correct?
    I'm wondering now if the strange groups with the odd site codes that don't even exist were created when the secondary sites were initially being created a while back. From the documentation, it looks like the former admin initially configured the secondary
    sites using a PowerShell script created by Kaido Jarvemets. According to some of the notes I have read, the admin kept uninstalling and re-installing the sites when they were not showing up in the SCCM 2007 Admin console, but apparently they simply forgot
    to configure a Sender and an Address, if that makes any sense to you.
    So, perhaps these groups ending with an odd Secondary Site code may have been a typo during one of the installation attempts? If this is the case, can these groups be deleted?
    One thing I forgot to mention was that the Secondary Site servers belong to a Global Security AD group and that group is used to add them to both the SMS_SiteSystemToSiteServerConnection_<SiteCode
    and the SMS_SiteToSiteConnection_<SiteCode>
    groups on the Primary Site server.
    Is this allowed?
    Thanks

  • An email site has been posted in notepad and now I cannot get into the site

    I received an email from Coldwater Creek. Somehow the site got transferred into note pad and I cannot open any websites for Cold water Creek through Mozilla Firefox. How do I correct this situation so I can again get into this website and remove it from Notepad?

    My wife has the same problem. It seems the E-mail had some bad code and now an "apsx" file will open in Notepad.
    Check in Tools - Options - applications Then look for aspx. This is the newer web page code for very fancy web sites using databases and all that. You can't change nor delete that "application opener" nor change it to use Firefox. So we're stuck. Maybe try uninstalling Firefox and reinstall. There is no reset in that "application" page.
    We need some help from the tech guys.
    You can use IE to go to coldwatercreek.com for now.
    This could be a bug as she's using FF 4.0.
