Can I re-enable SSL in Firefox without downgrading? When I hit an SSL-only site, my only current option is to use another browser.

Just hit an SSL-only site that I needed to access that FF 35 blocked. I don't see an obvious way to create an exception or re-enable it. We need this option... many users understand POODLE and can make an intelligent decision regarding the risks. TLS has its vulnerabilities as well.

hello ancistrus, as you know ssl3.0 encrypted connections can be no longer considered secure since an attack vector against them ("POODLE") has become known. please contact the webmaster in charge of the site and urge them to update their encryption to something contemporary.
https://blog.mozilla.org/security/2014/10/14/the-poodle-attack-and-the-end-of-ssl-3-0/
if you want to re-enable ssl 3.0 in firefox you can do that - however keep the consequences in mind, that you will become vulnerable to the attack mentioned above: enter '''about:config '''into the firefox address bar (confirm the info message in case it shows up) & search for the preference named '''security.tls.version.min'''. double-click it, change its value to '''0''' and restart the browser.

  • Will Firefox ever fix the page display they broke w/ version22 or should I just uninstall and use another browser?

    Pages display is too large for the screen. They blame me for the dpi setting on my pc, yet resetting to the default setting does not fix the problem.

    As I understand it, the philosophy behind the changes in Firefox 22 were to apply your Windows text size of 150% to web pages, on the theory that you probably would want that. This doesn't work for everyone.
    If the user interface text is a good size, then try this extension to adjust the page zoom level. You can still fine-tune zoom on pages using Ctrl+ and Ctrl- but this will reduce the numbers of sites you need to adjust.
    [https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/default-fullzoom-level/ Default FullZoom Level]
    To counteract the change, here are examples of some settings to try:
    * Windows text size 125% => set default zoom level to 80%
    * Windows text size 150% => set default zoom level to 67%
    Can you find a setting that looks good to you?
    Note: If you already have the NoSquint extension, use its global zoom level instead of adding a new add-on.

  • Firefox seems to be my only browser that puts ads on my Facebook page. How can I stop this? I love Firefox but hate the ads and will use another browser until it's solved.

    Whenever I open Facebook through Firefox I get pop up ads and such. I do not seem to get this when using other browsers like Safari or IE. It's sooo annoying!!! I will use another browser until it's solved.

    Since you have encountered the problem at other sites, not just Firefox, I'd bet that it is an Internet Explorer problem, not the web sites. Actually, I am sure it is an IE problem.
    Try running Windows Update, perhaps there are some updates for Internet Explorer that might resolve the problem. If you don't know how to run Windows Update, use the Help on your system to look for information on Windows Update.
    If that does not help, use Google to search for information on IE9 locking up when downloading.

    When I close Firefox and then come back to it later a box comes up that says it's already running. It says to close Firefox first but when I hit close nothing happens and the box comes up again. I have to shut down my computer and restart to get into Firefox again. If I can't get this fixed I will start using someone else. Someone told me a way to close Firefox but I forgot what they said.
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == a couple of months ago

    Hello Brian.
    You don't need to restart your computer to open Firefox again: you just need to close it manually through your application manager (CTRL+SHIFT+ESC in Processes tab). Anyway, hopefully this support article is what you need:
    http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Firefox+hangs
    What's probably happening is that you may be having a problem with some Firefox add-on that is hindering your Firefox's normal behavior. Have you tried disabling all add-ons (just to check), to see if Firefox goes back to normal?
    Whenever you have a problem with Firefox, whatever it is, you should make sure it's not coming from one of your installed add-ons, be it an extension, a theme or a plugin. To do that easily and cleanly, run Firefox in [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Safe+Mode safe mode] and select ''Disable all add-ons''. If the problem disappears, you know it's from an add-on. Disable them all in normal mode, and enable them one at a time until you find the source of the problem. See [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes this article] for information about troubleshooting extensions and theme. You can troubleshoot plugins the same way.
    If you want support for one of your add-ons, you'll need to contact its author.

    Any Mac introduced before Lion was released can run Snow Leopard, including the mid-2001 iMacs. So you can still get a current-generation Mac that runs Rosetta & use AppleWorks.
    That's actually not true. Snow Leopard will only run on Intel Macs. The situation is this :
    Any Mac capable of running Snow Leopard OR EARLIER will be able to run AW - Lion is the first OS that can't.
    PPC Macs will run as far as Leopard 10.5.8 - they should have 1GB RAM minimum, but can run with less RAM for Tiger. They will all run AppleWorks.
    All but the latest Intel Macs will run Snow Leopard and therefore Rosetta and therefore AW too.
    However, current iMacs that come with Lion preinstalled can have 10.6 installed on a separate partition (must be 10.6.6 or later), to run Rosetta.
    The current generation of MacBooks, and Air, cannot have 10.6 installed and therefore cannot run AW.
    I don't know what the situation is with the latest Mac Pros.

  • Firefox internet speed slow in verizon fios until I use another browser. When I return to firefox speed very much inproved = to other browsers

    Each time I run verizon's fios speed test in fire fox the results are very slow until I use another browser,IE, chrome, then back to firefox and rerun speed test. The speed increases = to other browsers. I have another computer on the same network but with win 7 instead of win 8.1 and do not have this problem. This has occurred over several months ,versions and updates of fire fox. I have tried many fixes to no avail. I like fire fox and want to stay with it.

    Hi karnack1,
    Thank you for your question and I am happy to help you. I understand that you have tried a few remedies for internet speed on Windows 7 in Firefox for Desktop. In order to better assist you can you please mention what was tried and if you are using a proxy or not, as well as a firewall or antivirus. Thank you.

  • Why can I no longer delete specific messages on my iphone5?  There now is only an option to Delete All i.e. the entire conversation.

    Why can I no longer delete specific messages on my iphone5?  There now is only an option to Delete All i.e. the entire conversation.  Can this be resolved.

    I don't know what to tell you if you really are running iOS 5 but on iOS 8 when you hold down a message you get the options Copy and More. When you click more you can select a specific message and click the trash can to delete just that message. Check and see if you have that as an option.

    Why can't I purchase movies on my iPad? When I hit buy it doesn't download.

    Ok. That's strange.  The download should show up immediately in the lower right.  Even if it is stuck, you will se the red number.  So something is blocking the purchase.  Take a look at setting, restrictions, and see if something there is turned on that might be blocking you.

  • How do I log on to my personalized firefox browser from a public computer using another browser.

    How do I log on to my personalized firefox browser from a public computer using another browser.

    Right now, there is no real way to do that. You could log into Firefox Sync [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/what-firefox-sync https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/what-firefox-sync], and that would move your personal data to the new computer (if it was using Firefox). but then you would want to delete your profile on the public computer to ensure you didn't leave your personal information available for others.
    There are initiatives that plan on making it possible to log onto Firefox from any computer and instantly have all your information, but they are not near completion.

  • How can I Lync-enable a domain user without Exchange

    Our Lync guy recently left us (like, earlier today), and I've already hit a snag.
    We recently acquired a small company that hosts their own mail externally, but we've created accounts for them in one of our user domains, and now we want to add them to our Lync 2010 server so they can IM with the rest of the company.
    I can successfully retrieve user information with Get-CsADUser, but when I attempt to enable a user with Enable-CsUser, it fails with the following message:
    Enable-CsUser : Active Directory operation failed on "<domain controller>". You cannot retry this operation: "The name reference is invalid ErrorReplicationLatency

  • Where can I download firefox 3.6,firefox 4 is terrible ? I used to be able to put a key word in the address bar and go straight to the site now I get a stupid google search. I really hate firefox 4 if I cant go back i will use another browser .

    Its all the little things I don't like about firefox 4 mainly the layout and the search.I thought my browser would get an upgrade, this is complete downgrade ,I never went with firefox for speed .I went with firefox because i hate toolbars and I loved the fact I could put tpb only in the address bar and go straight to the pirate bay or ww.bbc.co .uk by typing bbc

    The change between Firefox 3.6.* and Firefox 4 is how location bar search works. In Firefox 3.6 it uses Google "Browse by name" search. With the browse by name search, it performs a Google search and if there is a clear match it will take you to the site, otherwise it shows the Google search result. With Firefox 4 it just performs a Google search if you type something which is not recognised as a URL.
    To get the Firefox 3.6 behaviour on Firefox 4 you need to change a hidden preference.
    # Type '''about:config''' into the location bar and press enter
    # Accept the warning message that appears, you will be taken to a list of preferences
    # Locate the preference '''keyword.URL''', double-click on it and change its value to the link shown below
    [http://www.google.com/search?ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&sourceid=navclient&gfns=1&q= http://www.google.com/search?ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&sourceid=navclient&gfns=1&q=]
    If you prefer, you can also do this by installing the Browse by Name extension - https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/browse-by-name
    Firefox is highly customizable and you may be able to customize it to meet your needs.
    If you do not like the new UI, you can make Firefox 4 look and behave more like Firefox 3.6, for details see http://www.computertechtips.net/64/make-firefox-4-look-like-ff-3-6

  • Despite upgrading to firefox 5 when I try to add googletoolbar it says I'm using Firefox 3! I'm thinking I'll just use another browser as this is infuriating!

    I upgraded to firefox 5 and my google toolbar went. I was sent a solution that worked on one of the machines in my home. Despite trying to use that same link to add the missing toolbar to this machine, firefox keeps telling me that I am using firefox 3. I have just installed firefox 5 twice more, I have been doing this for the last two weeks. Still it insists I'm using the old version. It is most infuriating as a spell check is vital. I'm aware I can right click on a word but that is an American dictionary and I'm English and like to spell correctly.
    What can resolve this before I uninstall firefox and find an alternative browser?

    1. Your UserAgent says you are running Firefox 3.0.11, and that issue need to be fixed.
    https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Websites+or+add-ons+incorrectly+report+incompatible+browser
    2. Google needs to update the Google Toolbar program for Firefox 5.0.
    The Google Toolbar '''7.1.20110512W''' version does work pretty good in Firefox 5.0 by using the Compatibility Reporter extension. But not every feature works 100%.<br />
    https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/add-on-compatibility-reporter/
    http://googlesystem.blogspot.com/2011/06/enable-google-toolbar-in-firefox-5.html
    Google Labs has been working on a GTB 8 version, but it looks like it isn't made for Firefox - just for Internet Explorer. <br />
    http://www.google.com/support/toolbar/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=1111588#toolbar_info <br />
    So, maybe Google isn't going to be supporting Firefox any longer. That might be a move to force Google Toolbar users over to Google Chrome, which I believe has all those features built-in.
    3. You can install other English spell check dictionaries in addition to the US - English dictionary that comes with the en-US version of Firefox, from this web page: <br />
