Firefox is hijacked to display the same ads on every page!!

I come to believe that Firefox is hijacked in my computer. I have been having trouble with pop-up ads some time back from a mysterious source called adnxs.com. I somehow managed to resolve it but now, the same old shit is back again. This time it shows the link as https://secure-sin.adnxs.com/. It does a worse thing than popups, it displays its ad on every page I visit, even for secure HTTPS sites!!
I tried scanning for it but my Avast Antivirus as well as Spybot S&D failed to pick it up.
I know the problem is with firefox only, because there was no issue when using Chrome. Can anyone pls shed any light?

Here is the information you asked for:
I'll also let you know that I have done some cleaning afterwards, removed all cookies, disabled unnecessary toolbars and also ran system wide scan again. It looks like that put a stop to this malware. Though knowing how persistent this spyware/malware is I wouldn't be surprised if it shows its face again.

Stamps in the same place on every page

Lets say we have a 10 page electrical wiring diagram document. On each page there's space for our client's logo and address. As a service, we are now thinking of adding that logo and address before we print the document and send it to our client. I know how to add stamps, but I can't figure out how to place the stamp on just one page, and then automatically have it placed in the exact same place on all pages. Is that possible? Do I have to place the stamp on every page manually? Then they will not end up in the same position every time!
This is quite urgent. If anybody has a solution, please let me know.
I have Acrobat Professional 8
Lena

We do something similar using Batch Processing. The stamp is placed on a blank page PDF in the position we want it to appear on the document. We then run a Batch process that opens the file, adds the watermark (the PDF file containing the placed stamp, flattens the layers, and prints the file. We don't save but there is an option to save the file with the stamp on when you set up the batch process.
Setting up the Batch Process can take a moment, especially making sure the stamp will appear where you want it, but it makes things very easy once you have it set up.

The same menu on every page

I'm new to Spry. I have a couple of pages and on every page I
want to have the same menu. I include the JS-Code and a suitable
CSS-File, so I have to update the menu only once, if changes occur.
Now I want to use Spry in Dreamweaver, but how can I make a
menu in Javascript? Is there a better way? How do you this?
Greetings,
Egon

Hi Egon,
on Dreamweaver you can insert the spry menu bar from Insert
bar. It will be generated in page the menu bar code and the links
to the js and css files. If you want to use some different links
you can link them in this page and the menu will perfectly work.
Is this what you want or I was misunderstood your problem?

Placing the same image on every page.

Hi!
I want the epub pages to show an image on the right corner. Is it possible to do it... with InDesign?
I don't want you to teach me how to do it, just tell me if it's possible and I'll try to do it.
I want the pages to look like this:

You definitely cannot do it in InDesign, and, unless you were creating a fixed format EPUB, which I've never done, I doubt it could be done is a normal reflowable EPUB. Think about it, there is no fixed page size, it's just a flow of text and anchored images. As the page gets resized (on a laptop screen, or iPad, or whatever), the page is never the same size. If someone changes the font size, everything reflows differently.

Cover same spot on every page

I have a job that is several hundred pages long. Every page is a poor quality scan with a mark on the same spot on every page. I would like to cover this spot on all pages. I tried using the Rectangle Frame Tool with a solid white fill (I go to Swatches then Paper) on the master page. Even if I tell the Rectangle Frame to Bring To Front, it still does not show up on top of all my scans. If I look behind the scans, the Rectangle Frame is there as if I did not tell it to Bring To Front. What am I doing wrong? I was under the impression that anything I put on the Master Page will show on all other pages. Is that correct? Is there a better way to be doing this?

Wouldn't it be simpler to edit the scan in Photoshop and remove the mark? Doing that would remove any possibility of not having the patch when you need it in some other case, or of the patch accidentally winding up in front of something you want to show.

Restart your Mac and immediately hold down the Shift key when you hear the startup chime to boot into Safe Mode. Keep holding the Shift key until you see a progress bar towards the bottom of the screen. You can let go of the Shift key at that point.
OS X asks you to log in (you will get this screen on a Safe Mode boot even if your Mac is set to automatically log in). Let the Mac finish booting to the desktop and then restart normally. This will clear Font Book's database and the cache files of the user account you logged into in Safe Mode.
Next, close all running applications. From an administrator account, open the Terminal app and enter the following command. You can also copy/paste it from here into the Terminal window:
sudo atsutil databases -remove
Terminal will then ask for your admin password. As you type, it will not show anything, so be sure to enter it correctly.
This removes all font cache files. Both for the system and the current user font cache files. After running the command, close Terminal and immediately restart your Mac.

After a PRAM reset my MBP 1,1 display is split into 4 parts each displaying the same image. What is causing this and how can I fix it?

After resetting the PRAM/NVRAM (control, option, P, R) on my Macbook Pro 1,1 (2007) running 10.6.8 The screen is now split into 4 parts, each displaying the same thing. The screen immediately appears this way at the first grey screen, however if I do another NVRAM reset, upon restart after the second startup chime, the screen is normal but once it gets to a certain point around thetime the cog stops spinning, the screen flickers, turns blue and splits into four again.
Another thing is when I tried using the Apple Hardware Test I couldn't read the instructions as the resolution was too small, but once I restarted and change my display resolution in System Preferences, the resolution was readable in AHT. I assumed the System Settings were loading when the OS had booted and that AHT runs without any of these settings (if that makes sense?)
I've not used any third party utilites and everything working fine except for some battery issues which are gone now (the reason I tried the PRAM reset)
Any help would be much appreciated

How can I display the same page when I'll press

i have a jsp page. It contains user name & password.
and a link like SIGNOUT COMPLETELY. when i press the back button it should show only this page.
You have noticed one thing that when u sign out from YHAOO MAIL then a page is displayed
USERNAME : [email protected]
PASSWORD :XXXXXXXXXX
SIGNOUT COMPLETELY
when this page is dispalyed and u press the back button of the browser
it displays the same page. How it happens?

Kindly neglect the previous post.....
Okay check something like this
1).maintain either a HttpSessionListener or a session flag try to checkout whether the user is active or else close the PrintWriter.
2).Prevent caching of the webpage by using customary meta tag or by response,setHeader("Cache-Control","no-cache");
way...
Guess tht shud work.....

If I have 2 tv's and each their own apple tv can I display the same program to them from my macbook at the same time?
for instance Keynote?

Welcome to the Apple community.
The Apple TV cannot display keynote presentations or websites from the computer. It can display them via mirroring from the iPad 2 or better or the iPhone 4S.
You cannot AirPlay to 2 Apple TV 2's at the same time from an iOS device. You can watch the same video, TV show or listen to the same music from your iTunes library on multiple Apple TV's at the same time.

MacBook Air intermittently has issues connecting to websites when wireless shows connected to the internet. The pages show that I am offline, but I can ping Google DNS. Windows PC, iPhone and Android phone have no issue displaying the same web pages.

Your System Details are showing Fun Web Products. Suggest you look in Add-ons - Extensions and Plug-ins, and Control Panel>Add/Remove programs or >(newer version) Programs and Features. You could also do a search of your computer.
Fun Web Products(associated with MyWebSearch) always seems to cause problems, Alexa does, too, but less often - there may be conflicts.
I'm not an expert on these two products. I'm afraid I can only alert you to the problems. Google will show you plenty of evidence of problems. You might also try the Search Firefox Help box above - a gold mine but it usually requires a lot of digging.
You can start Firefox in Safe Mode - Hold Shift Key down as you double click on the Firefox icon>ignore the page that opens>Continue. If that improves things you could do a little troubleshooting(Safe Mode, Problematic extensions etc), use default theme, -

Not really a problem just would like to know if I install firefox 4 beta...will I lose my bookmarks already in my current firefox browers and is that the same for the farmville game bar from facebook

Not really a problem just would like to know if I install firefox 4 beta...will I lose my bookmarks already in my current firefox browers and is that the same for the farmville game bar from facebook

It should not be a problem, as long as you are careful. Note the delete settings option when uninstalling firefox will delete bookmarks etc for ALL installed versions of firefox.
Firefox attempts to retain the profile information, that include bookmarks etc when updating. It may still be prudent to consider other backup methods not entirely dependent on firefox.
The firefox 4 beta will install by default in a slightly different location, you are then able to run either the current or the beta version of firefox. It is recommended you set up a new profile for the new version of firefox. see

How to display the same content in the two different main windows?

Cover flow displays the same two pieces of artwork for all videos.

I've been adding a collection of tv series I have on DVD to iTunes 9.1.1, it all worked fine initially, I opened each video up of a series of tv programs and used the "Set Poster Frame" option to capture a frame of the program to use as the artwork for that program.
I normally have the programs sorted by what tv program they belong to, so Cover flow only displays the first episode of a series' artwork. I'm not sure why though but something I did yesterday appears to have caused cover flow to blow a fuse.
If I chose to sort by name before, cover flow would display all the artwork for each episode, and it showed all the different artworks correctly. Now though after some fiddling I did which I cannot seem to recount my steps back to, it only displays the same two pieces of artwork from two particular episodes for all the videos when it is sorted via name:
http://img257.imageshack.us/img257/3052/tvprogcoverflow.png
I've tried removing all the artwork, but there doesn't seem to be an option to delete the poster frame and the poster frame artwork doesn't show up under the artwork tab for the individual videos so I can't delete anything from there. If I select all the videos and then right click and get info, then select the artwork check box and click OK it seemingly deletes all the artwork... Then replaces it again with the exact same artwork!
Although cover flow shows each video has having the same artwork if I Get Info each video it clearly shows it having the correct artwork so why cover flow is messing around like this I don't know.
I've tried deleting the album artwork cache in the itunes folder, didn't work. I even tried deleting my entire itunes folder which I have separate from my library and the hidden prefs file in my actual library, but that didn't work either.
Interestingly enough, if I re-add all the videos they automatically get listed as films and go under the film tab. When looking at them under their cover flow correctly shows every episode with the right artwork:
http://img200.imageshack.us/img200/8234/filmcoverflow.png
As soon as I change the Get Info options tab from Film to TV program either for one video or all of them, then cover flow screws up again.
Any idea how to fix this annoyance?

The weird thing is, it worked before. I encoded all the videos previously and had them all listed and didn't encounter this problem, but I noticed I'd forgotten to decomb/detelecine the videos so I deleted everything and re-encoded it all. AFter filling the tags out and setting poster frames again I was thinking of making life easier by just pasting the same artwork for every episode, so I did, but didn't like the results so I deleted it again (I selected every video, used Get Info and pasted the artwork that way).
I think it was after this that the problem started to occur. In any case I've been through every episode and made sure the name, series, episode and episode id fields are all filled in with incremental values and they are. I even made sure the Sort Name field was filled in on every video. But this didn't work either.
So, thinking another restart was needed I deleted every video again. Re-encoded them all, again. Set the tags for every video and poster frame again. Finished it all off nicely, checked cover flow and was highly annoyed to find it was STILL showing the same two pieces of art work for every video as shown in that image I posted.
Ultimately, I wouldn't care so much that cover flow is screwing up like this as I always intended to sort by program anyway so it would only ever display one piece of artwork for an entire series of videos, however where-as when it was working it picked the artwork for the first episode of a series to display, its instead picking one of the latter episodes. I can't seem to find any way of choosing what artwork I want displayed.
