Firefox opens up every 5 min a new window, if I am using firefox and also if I am not using it

using firefox 6.01, but if I am using my laptop the firefox opens up a window, about 5 min later it continues open a new window and so on even I am not using firefox or using it. Not sure what it is but it can be anouying.

Sounds like a bug to me.
I would go to my task manager and make sure all web browsers are closing. I would also do a full scan with some good Virus and Trojan software. I suspect an intruder in your system.

I have the same problem with the right click and do not have the ask toolbar installed on my system?

Just recently this problem started - while I'm moving my mouse around the page that I'm looking at or scrolling around OPENS into a NEW WINDOW. It happens very frequently and is quite annoying. Thanks!

There doesn't seem to be a pattern to the mouse movement. It just happens when I move the mouse around. It opens the page up in a new window in front of the other tabs that I've been working on. It happens at least every two minutes.

Make sure that you do not drag a tab in the browser window. 
Firefox 3.5 versions and later have a feature called tear-off tabs. 
You can detach a tab from the current window and open it in a new window by dragging a tab in the browser window. 
You can drag that tab back to the tab bar in the original window to undo that detaching.

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
* Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
* https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Safe+Mode
If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
* Use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.
* Close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")
In Firefox 4 you can use one of these to start in [[Safe mode]]:
* Help > Restart with Add-ons Disabled
* Hold down the Shift key while double clicking the Firefox desktop shortcut (Windows)

I am having problems when i have minimized windows and try to open a new window it will open all minimized windows along with the new window. It just changed when mozzilla updated. It did not do this before the update. Before the update if i had minimized windows they would stay minimized when i opened a new window. Please help ,I would guess it is just a setting somewhere but i cannot figure out where the setting is. Thanks jason

As far as I'm aware, there isn't a supported way to do this in the client-side API. You could use window.open instead

How can I open a customized report in a new window?

I am trying to create printable views for my reports that are published as portlets. In specific, I would like a link to open the report up in a new window where the user can print at. I have figured out how to do this with the default report created. However, after a user has customized the report, is there a way to open the customized report in a new window?

Hi
I do not think it matters whether your reports portlet is a default one or a customize one. I think whne you place the portlet, you can specify in the property to open up the result in new window. I think it is common feature of Portal.
Thanks

Open a bsp page in a new window?

Hi All,
I am creating a BSP application wherein i have a htmlb button for "help".
I want to open this help page in a new window, so that alongwith the help page the user can
view other pages also simultaneously.
Is there any way by which i can open this BSP page into a new window without loosing
the contents of the current page on which the help button is present.
A sample code for opening page in new window will be of great help.
Thanks in Advance for your help.

Hi,
Pls try the below logic :
<htmlb:button id = "help"
text = "Help"
design = "standard"
onClientClick = "window.open('http://www.sap.com')"
tooltip = "Help"
/>
This will work for you.

SSRS 2008 : Open a linked report in a new window.

Hi,
How can I open a linked report, specified in the Action property, in a new explorer window?
Thanks,
Anurag

Hi Anurag,
If I understand correctly, you have used the "Jump to report" function to open a sub reoprt(linked report in your question). Now, you want to open the report in a new windows.
By default, if using "Jump to report" function, the sub report will be opened in itself. That menas, it won't be opened in a new window.
To open the sub report in a new windows, we can use the "Jump to url". Use JavaScript function "window.open" in the URL to open the reoprt in a new window:
="javascript:void(window.open('subreport name'))"
Please feel free to ask, if you have any more questions.
Thanks,

Numbers documents from iOS need Numbers 3.2 on a Mac to open. And Numbers 3.2 requires Mavericks. If you are using Mavericks you can get Numbers 3.2 from the Mac App Store. It will be free IF you have Numbers 2 (iWork '09) installed. Otherwise you must buy it.
Your other option is to send the Numbers file as an Excel file via e-mail to yourself to open with an earlier version of Numbers.

Cant seem to make photoshop default to open photos in Windows. Its defaulting to Adobe and I changed settings, still not working

Error on new windows 8.1 project: The type or namespace name 'Foundation' does not exist in the namespace

I upgraded to win 8.1 and VS 2013. I created a new Windows 8.1 C# grid project and tried to compile it and I'm seeing the following error: Error 1 The type or namespace name 'Foundation' does not exist in the namespace [my namespace](are
you missing an assembly reference?)
The errors are in navigationhelper.cs line 59
[Windows.Foundation.Metadata.WebHostHidden] // Foundation has the squigglies
public class NavigationHelper : DependencyObject
and app.xaml.cs line 68 ==> rootFrame.Language = Windows.Globalization.ApplicationLanguages.Languages[0]; which causes this error: Error 2 The type or namespace name 'Globalization' does not exist in the namespace [my namespace] (are you missing
an assembly reference?)
Windows phone and mvc projects are working fine and I've installed all the updates and even tried to fix vs 2013.
Any help Is greatly appreciated.

I did some more investigation and noticed that if I create an app with a "." in the name then this problem occurs. For example create a windows store project with the default name "App1": this will compile.
However if I name the project "App1.Forms" to correspeond with the default namespace I want, then this problem occurs. Still investigating but anyone should be able to repro it with that step.

Could you share a link to the page?
Seeing it in context and in our browsers is much easier to debug.
If not, make sure to run the validator here The W3C Markup Validation Service and clear out any problems. HTML errors, especially structural ones, will cause all kinds of display problems in various browsers/versions/platforms.
