Everytime I click on something in Firefox I get system23/yehmyv.dll not valid windows image. What do I do?

I tried updating Firefox but still get the same message. When I used Explorer (YUCK) I did not get the message even though I went to some of the same sites. The entire message reads: DLL C:/WINDOWS/system32/yehmyv.dll (should be back slashes) If I click ok it goes away but comes back almost everytime I click on a link. I can work with it but it is annoying and I'm worried about potential problems cropping up. I ran spyware and checked my firewall. Don't know what to do next

Also do a malware check with some malware scan programs.<br />
You need to scan with all programs because each program detects different malware.<br />
Make sure that you update each program to get the latest version of the database before doing a scan.<br />

  • I recently had an update to firefox and now cannot use it at all. Apparently a 'bad image' not valid Windows image. Help.

    I recently had an update to my Firefox account and since then cannot use it at all. When I try to a window opens which says the following:
    The application or DLL C:/Program Files/Mozilla/Firefox/xul.dll is not a valid Windows image. Please check your installation diskette.

    Please do the following.
    Go to [http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html Download Firefox v3.6.17] and download it to the desktop.
    Then go to Add/Remove Programs, scroll down to '''Mozilla Firefox '''and remove it, choosing to keep your bookmarks, customizations etc., (''don't checkmark the box'').
    Then reboot and delete the folder called '''Mozilla Firefox '''at this location: ''C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox''
    Finally run the installation file you downloaded to the desktop earlier.
    Your bookmarks, customizations etc., are maintained in a different location and will become available to you again once you complete the installation.
    This is what's known as a 'clean install'. It will overwrite the corrupt files which are preventing Firefox from starting.

  • I've lost my home page, clicking the home button all I get is URL is not valid, tried suggestion in help but they didn't. Can you plse.

    On getting into Monzilla since the update, I no longer get the home page I had. In fact the page is blank except for headerbar. When I clock on the Home button all I get is message 'URL is not valid' This means I cannot leave a website without logging out of my Firefox account.

    -> Now, [[How to set the home page#w_set-a-single-web-site-as-your-home-page|Set a single web site as your home page]]
    Check and tell if its working.

  • Firefox is freezing everytime I click on something no matter the page.

    It doesn't matter what website I am using everytime I click on something, it loads the page correctly and then says (not responding) for 2 to 3 minutes. It hasn't crashed so far, but I am not a big fan of waiting.

    Click here and follow the instructions, or if there’s a type of adware not covered by them on the computer, these ones. If you're willing to use a tool to remove it(you don't need to, but may find it easier), you can instead run Adware Medic; this link is a direct download.

  • Macbook keeper advert pops up everytime i click on something

    Everytime i click on a link this macbook keeper advert just pops up until i close the tab down.
    does anyone know how i can get rid of it?
    thanks

    Each browser works a little differently.  Check your browser Preferences (COMMAND ,( and look for an option that allows you to 'block pop-up widows'.  This will not totally eliminate them, but will minimize them.  This is from my primary browser, Firefox:

    hey,
    ive also downloaded the easyfind app but it dont seem to find the pop up anywhere on my mac, but its defiently there everytime i click on something.
    There is nothing to search for in ths case.  It is a function of the web site.
    since deleting google chrome it hasnt popped up but im worried if i reinstall it back it will appear? is this common?
    It may, but to a limited extent if your follow my suggestion and 'block pop-up windows,.  It is common in that it is not unusual.

  • I am getting the following reading when I click on Firefox: "The application or DLLc:/programfiles/mozillafirefox/xul.dll is not a valid windows image

    I am getting the following pop up reading when I click on the Mozilla Firefox icon located on my desktop: "The application or DLL c:/program files/mozillafirefox/xul.dll is not a valid windows image" I have always used mozilla and now I have no connection to the internet with it. I have tried to go to Mozilla.com to download again and I can't seem to locate a version to download.

    michaeleen, you can fix this with a clean install of Firefox:
    1. Download the Firefox installer from [http://www.mozilla.com/products/download.html?product=firefox-3.6.7&os=win&lang=en-US this direct link] and save it to your desktop or other location.
    2. Make sure that Firefox is closed completely
    3. Delete the Firefox installation directory (On Windows, this is typically the C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox folder that contains "firefox.exe" and other Firefox program files and folders).
    4. Reinstall Firefox by running the installer you downloaded previously.
    Your personal settings, including bookmarks and history, will not be lost.

  • I have uninstalled and re-downloaded firefox 3 times now and each time I get and error message saying that firefox is not a valid windows image? I download it from your website but to no availe

    This is the error message I get when I try and open Firefox:
    ''The application or DLL C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\WSOCK32.dll is not a valid Windows image. Please check this against your installation diskette.''

    wsock32.dll is a Windows System file which is used to connect to the internet. if you are seeing this error message then its probably because either your Antivirus program might have moved this file to the Virus Chest or this file was Deleted mistakenly. Try Restoring this file from your Anti Virus software or check if it is still available in the Recycle Bin folder.
    If above suggestions don't work, see this:
    ''This error is a tough one as it severely limits the programs or apps that you can run in Windows. This error pops up every time you try to open a program in windows, well not every program but most. Most spyware programs can’t be ran because this error pops up and prevents it.''
    ''One would think that the solution would be to repair the invalid .dll, but what ended up fixing it for me was extracting a fresh copy of explorer.exe. It looks like explorer.exe had gotten corrupt for some reason and was causing the bad image errors with certain .dll s.''
    ''To repair the problem open up '''msconfig''', it is actually one of the few programs in windows that would still open. To open it click on Start -> Run ->Type in '''msconfig''' and hit Enter. Once it is open click on the button that says “Expand File”. From there you will select the file that needs replaced and the location of the good file. Most of the time the good file can be found in the i386 folder of your XP install cd. My msconfig didn’t like the directory “C:\Windows\System32\ that was already filled in, so browse to the Windows\system32 directory and it should work just fine.''
    ''Expand the file, it will look like nothing happened, that is normal. Reboot the computer and you should not get the errors anymore.''
    ''To be safe, I expanded the Wsock32.dll file as well, so if for some reason your error still persists try expanding the dll file too.''

  • Why does Firefox warn me "The URL is not valid and cannot be loaded" on just about everysight that I go to including my MSN homepage

    When I open firefox and go to my home page I get The URL is not valid and cannot be loaded. This also happens when I access other pages. I click ok and then it opens up but I'm ready to go back to IE

    Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).<br />
    See [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] and [[Troubleshooting plugins]]<br />
    <br />
    If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all your extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.<br />
    You can use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.<br />
    You have to close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")

  • Downloaded latest version and now firefox won't open "mozjs.dll not found"?

    I downloaded version of firefox (5.0?), and when the computer restarted firefox won't open. I get a "mozjs.dll not found".
    Help?

    '''''[https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/troubleshoot-firefox-issues-using-safe-mode Start Firefox in Safe Mode]''''' {web link}
    While you are in safe mode;
    Press the '''<Alt>''' or '''<F10>''' key to bring up the tool bar.
    Followed by;
    Windows; '''Tools > Options'''
    Linux; '''Edit > Preferences'''
    Mac; ''application name'' '''> Preferences'''
    Then '''Advanced > General.'''
    Look for and turn off '''Use Hardware Acceleration'''.
    Poke around safe web sites and see if there is still a problem. Then restart.

    Do a clean reinstall and download a fresh Firefox copy from http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/all.html and save the file to the desktop.
    Uninstall your current Firefox version and remove the Firefox program folder before installing that copy of the Firefox installer.
    It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.

  • I have pop up windows popping up everytime I click on something and I want to know how to stop it.

    In the last few weeks when I click on something a pop-up window pops up. I have to click to close it and re-click on what I want. If I have opened Firefox and click on say open Facebook the pop-up comes up and I close it and then click on Facebook again to open it. If I'm in Pogo and click on a game a pop-up Pops up and I have to close it and click on a game again. The BLUE line at the top of the pop-up windows always has Firefox on it. It does this in any thing that is on line.
    Is there a way to stop this I'm ready to change from Firefox to something else if it I can get it to stop.

    MPlayerX isn't itself the problem; it was downloaded from a source that packaged adware with it. Click here and follow the instructions, or if desired, run Adware Medic.
