Firefox 9 beta messed up my Internet connections, Can't be killed in Taskmanager, can't be uninstalled

I installed the Firefox 9 beta and it messed up my Internet settings so no browsers could connect to the Internet. However, my antivirus program can connect to do updates, and I could still use my FTP functions as well. I am using Windows XP SP3 32 bit, with Gigabyte motherboard with built in Ethernet connection connected to RCA cable modem. As well, if I run Firefox, I can't kill the process in Taskmanager. I cannot uninstall Firefox (the uninstaller just freezes and RevoUninstaller can't remove it either. This is the most trouble I had with any software installation in many years.

  • Firefox stops loading pages and hoses internet connection for all other apps

    Running Firefox 3.6.3; XP sp3; FSecure Client Security 9
    After using Firefox for a while - sometimes a few minutes, sometimes a few hours, it will stop loading pages. If I click on a link, nothing happens. The program still responds to key / mouse input, but refuses to load any new pages. Furthermore, it stops all internet connections from my machine, so that IE and Opera stop working. I think it also stops email, but I am not sure.
    If I quit Firefox, the process is still running and I have to quit it manually from Task Manager. That solves the problem and internet connections are restored.
    I have tried in safe mode, I have tried removing all extensions, I have tried deleting my profile and doing a clean re-install. It's driving me crazy. Any thoughts?

    A possible cause is security software (firewall) that blocks or restricts Firefox without informing you about that, maybe after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
    Remove all rules for Firefox from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox.

  • Safari and Firefox windows are keep blank even internet connection is OK

    Hello,
    I have a USB mobile broadband from Three.
    For a few months it worked ok for my both iMac and Powerbook.
    But since yesterday afternoon, somehow I can't see any web pages, except Google search and search results. I tried both Safari and Firefox, both didn't work. Also I can't receive or send my emails.
    I checked internet connection, which must be fine. I see IP address and router address on network preference.
    I cleared both browsers cache, and deleted all history, but didn't work.
    Strange thing is that I can see Google and get results, but once I click any of search results, page gets just blank.
    I'd be very pleased if anyone could solve this problem.

    When did this start? Which version of Firefox?
    For reference, Firefox 23.0 was released on Tuesday, August 6th, and Firefox 23.0.1 was just released on Friday, August 16th.
    Does the address bar work normally in Firefox's Safe Mode? That's a standard diagnostic tool to bypass interference by extensions (and some custom settings). More info: [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode]].
    If Firefox is running, you can restart Firefox in Safe Mode using
    Help > Restart with Add-ons Disabled
    In the dialog, click "Start in Safe Mode" (''not'' Reset)
    If Firefox is not running, hold the Shift key when starting Firefox to get the Safe Mode dialog.
    Any difference?

  • Firefox 3.6.6 severs my Internet connectivity

    My system runs Windows 7. When Firefox 3.6.6 automatically downloads and my system restarts, my Internet connection is severed. I cannot restore it without doing a system-restore to before the new version was installed.
    == This happened ==
    Just once or twice
    == Firefox 3.6.6 downloaded onto my machine.

    I have the same problem, but worse. System restore does not work so now I have no internet at all. I was connecting to the internet fine through a wireless network before the 3.6.6 upgrade...now I have no internet connection through the same wireless network. ipconfig shows that I'm not being served a DHCP address and instead am defaulting to 169.254.39.142. I too am using Windows 7, on a Dell Inspiron laptop.

  • Safari, Firefox, Itunes and Update stop working, internet connection is properly working

    I have a 15 month old MacBook with OS X 10.6.7.
    Since two days, Safari and Firefox stop working after browsing through a few (randomly chosen) pages. That is: initially, things seem to work ok (a bit slower maybe), but after a while the page loading progress bar (in blue) gets stuck, and so does the browser. By then Itunes and Software Update don't work either. I get the error message: You are not connected to the internet.
    Sometimes, the programs start working again after a while
    When going to system preferences / network / Assist me / diagnostics, I get the report that the internet connection is working properly (it is, because I can type this on my other laptop).
    Using a tip from the Appel support community, I also tried Assist me / assistant, and set up the network again. Same problems arise.
    I have tried a few more things:
    - Clean up the system from additional programs
    - Backed up files and removed them to create extra space
    Although I do not know if it is related to teh above problem, we did experience a slower startup of the MacBook in the past few weeks.
    Is there anybody who can help us with this?
    Thanks in advance for any suggestions/explanations.

    This my sound too simple, but I just kept clikning on the arrow next to the selected music and it finally "Kicked" in.

  • WRT54G3G-ST router - no internet connection - can't reset router

    Hello.  Definite longer story definitely not short (I apologize for the rambling length...  I don't know what is and isn't important, so scan at will, please...  I am sorry...):  Recently my computer (Dell XPS 400, Windows XP Service Pack 3, Internet Explorer 7 with phishing filter and pop-up blocker on, SiteAdvisor, up-to-date McAfee Virus Scanner and Firewall, and a Linksys Wireless-G WRT54G3G-ST router with its power adapter plugged into the wall electrical outlet and a network cable from it directly connected to my computer.) got a drive-by Generic.dx trojan without me downloading anything from one of the few sites I visit daily.  My internet connection crawled, and I now have no connection at all. 
    I've been getting help from McAfee forums very helpful and quick good volunteers...  They recommended Malwarebytes Anti-Malware to me, which I downloaded from my second clean computer (a laptop) to my flash drive, then to my infected computer.  I ran it, tried updating it as recommended, and only then discovered the trojan killed my broadband entirely.  I scanned with it anyway, and it quickly found and removed/quarantined 11 Adware.MyWebSearch related files, but nothing else.  They then gave me a link to an offline updater patch file, and told me scan in safe mode until nothing else was found and check if it fixed my lack of broadband access.  Which I did, Malwarebytes found nothing else, but unfortunately I still had no broadband. 
    Next, they recommended WinsockXPFix.  Which I ran and it made all its registry changes OK, I rebooted as required but still no broadband unfortunately.  Did using WinsockXPFix make things worse for me with the registry changes it made?  I used its registry backup to save the pre-changed registry files prior to running.  Should I revert back since I still have no broadband connection?  The McAfee volunteers then kindly told me I needed to hard reset the router, though I've tried countless times with no fortune.  I'm at a definite loss as to what, if anything, I can do to hopefully get my broadband back, please... 
    It's very confusing with the numerous different variations to reset routers, and what I need to do for my router model (Variations:  Unplug this cable/adapter exactly where, or not; hold the reset button between 5-30 seconds; rebooting the computer, or not; waiting 1 or 2 minutes between various steps, or not - and for all of these at what exact point in the reset process.). 
    I reset it once before with the reset button, routers page at http://192.168.1.1, default admin password, then changed it for security, etc; but this time I can't get it to work.  I'm happy as can be to try again, to get a walk-through maybe, anything please...  When I go to http://192.168.1.1 now, or any other address, Internet Explorer gripes at me that I'm offline, which is annoyingly correct.  I don't have, and never had Zone Alarm, but disabling my McAfee Firewall doesn't help.  IPCONFIG at the Command Prompt gives me a Windows assigned address of 169.254.X.X 
    I was going to use the routers Setup Wizard CD to try to reset the router, and if that failed to try to get its firmware version number to maybe upgrade.  But I was going to ask here first for expert advice since I've read many things that can go wrong while upgrading firmware.  However, scanning the CD (Without running the CD.) McAfee found the virus W32/HLLP.Philis.ini in the file "D:\_desktop.ini" on the CD.  McAfee didn't delete the file, I don't know why. 
       I scanned my entire computer several times and no infections were reported.  I uploaded the file several times to both www.virustotal.com (39 online virus scanners), and virusscan.jotti.org (20 online virus scanners) and every time every virus scanner reported no possible infections.  Is my up-to-date McAfee virus scanner reporting a false positive and yet Jotti and Virustotal's 2 McAfee scanners report the file as probable clean?  Is "_desktop.ini" a legitimate Linksys file?  I found no information on Linksys/its forums about it.  My problems just keep multiplying...mentioning of more problems... 
    Finding that suspect file on the CD I decided to instead download the Setup Wizard from Linksys
    (Router product page:  http://www.linksysbycisco.com/US/en/support/WRT54G3G-ST/download
    Actual file:  http://downloads.linksysbycisco.com/downloads/WRT54G3G-ST_SetupWizard_4_2_06042008.zip)
    to my flash drive, then to my infected computer that is connected to the router.  I ran it (Downloaded file version: 4.2.0.007 - Original CD Setup Wizard version: 4.0 printed on CD front.) and it immediately gave 1 of 3 options:  Mobile Broadband Only, Broadband WAN Only, or Broadband WAN and Mobile Broadband.  I don't know what damage, if any, I caused by continuing. 
       It looked like it was trying to go through the entire router setup process.  I thought it would take me to some options to reset the router, as I've read in the User Guide and elsewhere - that was my understanding.  The setup process stopped at only 30% done "Router not found, please make sure the router is properly connected and try again."  How much overwriting of original router setup files did I do by continuing?  I'm entirely confused.  Doesn't the Wizard check if the router has been previously setup prior to setting it up again?  Did the version difference cause my router to not be detected by the Setup Wizard?  Did the Generic.dx trojan that killed my broadband trash my computer settings so bad that my router is undetectable/essentially not setup? 
    Update of sorts:  I tried one last time to reset the router, and I unplugged/plugged the network cable.  Doing that I still had no broadband on my main usage Dell XPS computer that's connected to the Linksys router.  However, my laptop, with Data Card in the router, was for the first time able to find the network - the constant connection and speed is brilliant, it's what it allways has been on the laptop (Since the trojan/router problems, my laptop only had broadband with the Data Card in the laptop.).  Maybe the network cable simply wasn't re-connected properly/entirely during 1 of the many reset attempts, it indeed could also explain the downloaded Setup Wizard not being able to find the router/only getting 30% done. 
    Laptop Command Prompt IPCONFIG /ALL with Sprint Data Card inserted in laptop computer slot: 
    IP Address    = 174.158.XX.XXX (Sprint)
    Subnet Mask = 255.255.255.255
    DNS Servers = 68.28.90.91
                               68.28.82.91
    Laptop Command Prompt IPCONFIG /ALL with Sprint Data Card inserted in router: 
    IP Address    = 192.168.1.1XX
    Subnet Mask = 255.255.255.0
    Default Gateway = 192.168.1.1
    DHCP Server      = 192.168.1.1
    DNS Servers      = 192.168.1.1
    Since my laptop started working with the Data Card in the router I haven't tried again to reset the router, nor have I tried the downloaded Setup Wizard.  I don't want to mess anything up further than I have(?) / the trojan has, and I need some expert advice, please, as to which of the 2 if either I should do (first?).  On my laptop computer only, typing http://192.168.1.1 in Internet Explorer gets the pop-up for username and password, but I haven't proceeded.  I've read you shouldn't reset the router and/or(? Is it both or just 1 please?) upgrade the firmware unless the computer is directly connected to the router - which my laptop is not.  On my other computer that still has no broadband, Internet Explorer still tells me I'm offline when typing http://192.168.1.1 into it.  My IP Address on it is still a Windows assigned 169.254.X.X and a Command Prompt PING 192.168.1.1 returns with "Destination host unreachable.", as it allways has and same with all other addresses (Except for 169.254.X.X). 
    Annoying 2nd "update" of sorts, apologies for length, as allways:  I've been so focused on the trojan/broadband killing that I've cluelessly largely forgot that I have dial-up with AOL.  Trying AOL dial-up also does not work, the insanity thickens...  AOL software tells me to check my connection, but all phone cords are plugged in as should be.  I plugged a phone directly into the wall outlet and I get a dial tone, I can call out OK, and the phone rings and gets calls OK.  Device Manager-Modems-Properties-Device Status says the modem is working properly, and Resources Tab shows no conflicts.  Diagnostics Tab's Query Modem looks OK to me, as does the log, but as allways I'm definitely no expert.  I didn't change any settings anywhere. 
       I have noticed off and on that checking IPCONFIG it says my IP Address is 192.168.1.100   It lasts maybe a day (then goes back to 169.254.X.X), maybe longer, I don't know - I don't check that often to pin it down (Should I?).  During this time neither my broadband, nor my dial-up works.  I can PING 192.168.1.100, but nothing else.  I'm convinced the evil trojan killed both my broadband and dial-up - I've never had a problem with my Conexant D850 56K V.9x DFVc Modem prior.  Also, I'm not convinced the trojan is not still lurking everywhere on my computer, I think it is... 
    Any and all help in restoring my broadband/dial-up is greatly appreciated, please...  Thank you! 
    Solved!

    Hello.  It's been entirely too long since I've replied, I'm sorry.  There's no excuse, and it's terribly rude of me...  You took the time to read and reply to me, and I endlessly appreciate that indeed.  I apologize for my long delay, I'm sorry... 
    After I left my message I downloaded many virus/spyware scanners, etc. from my laptop onto my flash drive, then my other computer for some needed thorough deep scans.  One that I downloaded was Network Magic, which somehow, someway fixed both my broadband/dial-up internet on my main computer that's connected to the WRT54G3G-ST router.  I don't know what/how it repaired my connection, but the broadband connection/speed has been working brilliantly since...  Network Magic worked for me, and I highly recommend it to everyone who has stubborn complete lack of internet problems (caused by trojans at that) as I did.  There's no guarantee it'll work, but it did for me to my amazement. 
    Network Magic, as is Linksys, is owned by parent company Cisco.  Respectfully to all the good knowledgeable experts here (Which clearly I am not.), I don't want to tread out of my bounds.  I'm simply trying hopefully to be helpful and save some headaches for both you the volunteers and the users...buying a new router and/or computer was on my mind, with all due respect I recommend suggesting to try Network Magic to users if resetting the router/all else fails, please.  I did use WinsockXPFix/WinsockFix utility prior to using Network Magic, I don't know if that matters. 
    I also upgraded my McAfee package, I installed over my old software instead of uninstalling first, which caused errors in the virus scanner of all critically needed things.  I have it installed properly now, but it did cause quite a delay in re-focus of my time.  Some of the virus scans also found many trojans, some were the same/in the same folders that killed my broadband - which stopped me in my tracks to insure uninfected cleaning. 
    That definitely doesn't entirely explain the long lapse of time, and I apologize for that, again.  It's just that I'm trying to be cautious and slow in all this.  To answer the first very good idea you made:  Unfortunately, there's no place on my other computer to plug the router in to, which all the more so caused frustration (at the time).  I forgot to include this in my novel length post of countless things to check/remember...  It was a brilliant idea though, thank you... 
    I thank you for your time and help, I do sincerely appreciate it...  Thank you...  I think, and hope this matter is solved.  It seems to be, the router is working perfectly as it allways has, and I'm positively happy as can be about it.  Thank you...  Peace... 

  • My time capsule runs very slowly and keeps disconnecting my internet connection, can anyone help me please?

    Hello all I have recently pulled out my 3TB Time capsule and attempted to use it to back up my all Mac network, starting with just my desktop. I gave up on it before and started using Time Machine with WD EHD's which work fine. The reason that I gave up was that the Time Capsule kept freezing and hanging and I couldn't rely on it for a back up. I have reset it to factory settings and reconnected it as per the instructions, using it to extend my network, the hub is a BT infinity setup. Anyway it looks like it is going to run, then keeps shutting down my internet connection and I suspect it is taking longer to run the backup than it should. Has anyone else had this problem or can help please?

    What model is the 3TB TC??
    If the computer is using Yosemite the setup of the TC needs to be right. It can also be hardware issue if you are talking about the previous gen4.
    Here is a list of things that can help with yosemite.
    Factory reset universal
    Power off the TC.. ie pull the power cord or power off at the wall.. wait 10sec.. hold in the reset button.. be gentle.. power on again still holding in reset.. and keep holding it in for another 10sec. You may need some help as it is hard to both hold in reset and apply power. It will show success by rapidly blinking the front led. Release the reset.. and wait a couple of min for the TC to reset and come back with factory settings. If the front LED doesn’t blink rapidly you missed it and simply try again. The reset is fairly fragile in these.. press it so you feel it just click and no more.. I have seen people bend the lever or even break it. I use a toothpick as tool.
    N.B. None of your files on the hard disk of the TC are deleted.. this simply clears out the router settings of the TC.
    Setup the TC again.
    Then redo the setup from the computer with Yosemite.
    1. Use very short names.. NOT APPLE RECOMMENDED names. No spaces and pure alphanumerics.
    eg TCgen5 for basestation and and TCwifi wireless name.
    If the issue is wireless use TC24ghz and TC5ghz with fixed channels as this also seems to help stop the nonsense. But this can be tried in the second round. ie plan on a first and second round of changes to fix this.. hopefully.. I will point out other steps that can be round2.
    2. Use all passwords that also comply with 1. but can be a bit longer. ie 8-20 characters mixed case and numbers.. no non-alphanumerics.
    3. If the TC is main router you can skip this point. This is only an issue when the TC is bridged.
    Ensure the TC always takes the same IP address.. you will need to do this on the main router using dhcp reservation.. or a bit more complex setup using static IP in the TC. But this is important.. having IP drift all over the place when Yosemite cannot remember its own name for 5 min after a reboot makes for poor networking.
    4. Check your share name on the computer is not changing.. make sure it also complies with the above.. short no spaces and pure alphanumeric.. but this change will mess up your TM backup.. so be prepared to do a new full backup. Sorry.. keep this one for second round if you want to avoid a new backup.
    5. Mount the TC disk in the computer manually.
    In Finder, Go, Connect to server from the top menu,
    Type in SMB://192.168.0.254 (or whatever the TC ip is which you have now made static. As a router by default it is 10.0.1.1 and I encourage people to stick with that unless you know what you are doing).
    You can use name.. SMB://TCgen5.local where you replace TCgen5 with your TC name.. local is the default domain of the TC and doesn't change.
    However names are not so easy as IP address.. nor as reliable. At least not in Yosemite they aren't. The domain can also be an issue if you are not plugged or wireless directly to the TC.
    6. Make sure IPv6 is set to link-local only in the computer. For example wireless open the network preferences, wireless and advanced / TCP/IP.. and fix the IPv6. to link-local only. Do the same for ethernet if you use it.
    There is a lot more jiggery pokery you can try but the above is a good start.. if you find it still unreliable.. don't be surprised.
    You might need to do some more work on the computer itself. eg Reset the PRAM.. has helped some people. Clean install of the OS is also helpful if you upgrade installed.
    Tell us how you go.
    Someone posted a solution.. See this thread.
    Macbook can't find Time Capsule anymore
    Start from the bottom and work up.. I have a list of good network practice changes but I have avoided Yosemites bug heaven.
    Yosemite has serious DNS bug in the networking application.. here is the lets say more arcane method of fixing it by doing a network transplant from mavericks.

  • Can't share my Internet connection - Can't create Wifi network

    Hi!
    I'm struggling to get my Mac Mini A1176 with 10.7 to create a Wifi hotspot. When I try, either through Internet Sharing or by manually choosing create network, it says "can't connect", and fails to create the hotspot.
    The only strange thing I can find, is that when I get the screen where I can choose network name, channel and security, channel is blank. I can't choose channel, the only option is the sign: -
    Anyone else seen this? Doesn't the A1176 support Adhoc networks?

    It's actually even easier than that....

  • I'm on a slow internet connection can I download photoshop cc directly at another location to install?

    Hi I'm trying to get photoshop installed on a computer at a location with slow internet and it's taking way too long. Can I download it somehow when I'm at another location to install here? I can't seem to find anything about that?

    ...and the monthly is supposed to be 30 days? Not many times a day? I will do the annual next time, but had no idea I was going to have extra issues by paying monthly. Logically I'd expect an annual payment to keep Photoshop authenticated for 364 days as long as it is the same computer. Why 99 days? Can I switch midstream?
    I won't mention what I'd really like is to go back to perpetual licenses That is the correct answer IMO, but Adobe has spoken. Notice I said that with a smile.
    I have no local network to deal with, just the computer I use directly connected to a router alone. I am the business; my staff of 5 or 6 and myself that is. Our network involves yelling hey (fill in the name) across the office. I gave up the corporate grind 28 years ago.
    It's been fine for the last few tries after having issues as often as three or four times an hour last week. No changes have been made between when it was really problematic and now that it seems to be OK. Could it be an incompatibility with some other software? It does seem random and I've seen this off and on for two years. I had the full boat CC for the first year and this same thing happened inexplicably every few weeks. Seems to be related to updates to the actual CC utility, but I'm no techie, I shoot photo's and market products.
    For now it's OK as I'll just use the copy of 6 I own in the field.
    Thanks so much for staying with this. I'm good and you can close this out.

  • After installed Norton Anti Virus 2011, firefox 4 beta 10 is slower. Anyone can help?

    Just wondering is it a must to have anti virus real time protection during online since I am using Firefox.

    Uninstalling 'messy' applications is one of my pet peeves.
    JMVP's link is your best solution.
    (This really is a post about removing applications in general and not really specific to Norton)
    However:
    If your app came with an Installer, launch it and look for an uninstall option. That isn't always an option though. That's when life starts to suck.
    Manually removing things (also applies to drag-and-drop apps):
    - Drag the app (or it's folder) to the trash.
    - Look in your System Preferences/Accounts/Login Items for startup services for the app
    - The next places to look for app related files are in your Home/Library/Application Support and Home/Library/Prefrences folders
    - Sometimes You can find App related stuff in the main Hard Drive /Library/Application Support and /Library/Prefrences folders
    - Drag these support and preferences files to the trash
    Don't just delete these files at random, they contain all kinds of settings and data. Make sure they belong to the application you are deleting!
    If you are going to re-install the app you can leave these where they are and when you re-install things will probably be the same as where you left off.
    You may have to restart to finish emptying the trash completely.
    The final thing you'll want to do is search for the name (or part of the name or developer) of the app in Spotlight and see if there's anything left over.
    You could also try http://www.appzapper.com/ to remove programs or http://www.allume.com/mac/springcleaning/index.html for general clean up.
