How can I disable the '$500 gift card' message when I open Firefox?

it appears that every time I open firefox, a banner appears at the top of the page offering a $500 gift card deal. I have to close it every time. Is there a way to disable this message?

Sounds like Malware.
Install, update, and run these programs in this order. They are all free for personal use, but some have limited functionality in the "free mode" - but those are features you really don't need to find and remove the problem that you have. '''(Not all programs detect the same Malware.)'''

  • How can I disable the low ink warning messages.

    How can I disable the low ink warning messages.  The Photosmart Plus B210 printer is connected wirelessly to my Mac over a home network..

    Open up a terminal (use spotlight to search for 'terminal')
    Find the process ID of the HP Device monitor by doing 
    ps -eo pid,command | grep "HP Device Monitor"
    The process id will be the number that is printed. Sometimes you may see two results, the correct result to use should print "/Library/Printers/hp/hpio/HP Device Monitor.app/Contents/MacOS/HP Device Monitor"
    Then using the number you got from the first step, run the following command.
    sudo kill -9 <pid>; sudo rm -rf "/Library/Printers/hp/hpio/HP Device Monitor.app/Contents/MacOS/HP Device Monitor"
    You will be prompted for your admin password.
    Below is an example of when I ran it:
    John-MacBook-Pro:~ john$ ps -eo pid,command | grep "HP Device Monitor"
    90509   /Library/Printers/hp/hpio/HP Device Monitor.app/Contents/MacOS/HP Device Monitor
    90513 grep "HP Device Monitor"
    John-MacBook-Pro:~ john$ sudo kill -9 90509; sudo rm -rf "/Library/Printers/hp/hpio/HP Device Monitor.app/Contents/MacOS/HP Device Monitor"

  • How can I disable e-mail and text messages when I'm close to or over my data quota ?

    How can I disable e-mail and text messages when I'm close to or over my data quota ?
    Is this possible? I don't see any options?
    All I see is this:
      Receive confirmations of many account transactions via Email and/or free Text Alerts delivered right to your cell phone. You can receive these confirmations for  
       transactions done online, over the phone or from your handset. Account management Text Alerts do not count against any Messaging allowances.
          Your bill is ready for review.
         Payment Confirmations: Your payment has been  received    Your credit/adjustment     has been applied.1
         Account Activity Confirmations     Plan changes     Feature changes1

    What phone?
    You would need to disable data on the phone itself.  You wouldn't do it online on your account.
    Note also that text messages do not count toward your data allowance.

  • I have just updated to Pages 5.1 and now the templares which I have saved do not displat the header and footer which they were saved with in the previous version.  How can I have the header and footer included when I open a template?

    I have just updated to Pages 5.1 and now the templares which I have saved do not displat the header and footer which they were saved with in the previous version.  How can I have the header and footer included when I open a template?

    That is becuase Pages 5.1 has numerous unnounced surprises for the unwary user.  Among the surprises:
    - it strips out images from headers and footers without warning
    - it strips out bookmarks without wanring (yes, all those bookamrks you laboriously put into a document: poof! Gone.)
    - it strips out alternating left/right margins, without warning.
    There are many more suprises, as you'll see from glancing through these discussions. They fall into two main categories: things that are present in version 4.3 but that are missing in 5.1, things like
    -mail merge
    -meaningful Applescript/Services support
    -non-contiguous text selection
    -ability to set defaul zoom
    -ability to see comments while editing
    -ability to print comments
    -ability to read RTF files
    -ability to drag in hyperlinked ted from a browser
    These about about 90 other features are gone.
    Then there are the bugs.  Hyperlinks do not reliably export to a PDF file any longer. There have been multiple problems with printing report. Some fonts place stray characters in the headers.  Many reports of the program crashing, courrupting files, etc.
    Fortunately for you, the previous version of Pages is still on your system.  Export any documents you may have created or edited with Pages 5.1 (another great surprise: files created with version 5.1 cannot be read by any previous version of Pages: not just 4.3 but even 5.01!).  Then trash 5.1 and use 4.3 until (unless?) it is stable and has a reasonably robust feature set.

  • HT201209 If I'm not in U.S, how can i use the iTunes Gift Card?

    Hi,
    Please help me! Last time my iTunes Store Account was registered in Singapore, So, all of my informations, billing address are affecting with SG iTunes Store.
    But now I am at another country, not in SG, That country don't have any credit card systems, so they just only used the iTunes Gift Cards, registering as U.S. When I brought that cards and redeem in my account that showed me "Your iTunes Store (Singapore) does not match that of the gift certificate (United States)" like this. So, how can i do to redeem in my acount, Can anybody give me advises? I tried to change my informations and billing information (with U.S address) at my iTunes account but it showed me "Please contact iTunes support to complete this transaction". So, please give me some ways to buy the softwares and others in iTunes with gift cards.
    Warmest Regards,
    Daniel.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Unfortunately, you can only use the gift card in the location it was purchased and with the iTunes store in that location.

  • How can I use the American gift card to use it in the Russian iTunes?

    I have got the itunes gift in the USA, but I need do exchange it to use it in Russuan store. How I can do it?

    All iTunes gift cards are country-specific, so you will only be able to redeem a US gift in the US onto a US iTunes account. Apple don't exchange cards - do you know anybody in the US that you could sell or give the card to ?

  • How can I disable the blue highlight on textfields in Safari and Firefox, using CSS?

    Hi, I'm trying to disable the default blue highlight on textfields in Safari and Firefox. I can get it to work in Safari by using the following CSS code:
    input {outline-style: none;}
    This doesn't work for Firefox, though.
    Can anyone help me to get it to work in Firefox?
    Thanks in advance!

    Are you referring the the border color or the actual field color?
    For field colour see the section on the input tag.
    However if it is the border color, this is set by the browser o/s, and cannot be changed with any 'cross-browser' technique, it can be changed in IE and other browsers using custom behaviors (IE), or by using custom skins (others).
    But the skins are only enabled by the user, and changing the chrome of the browser for form fields using JavaScript would probably affect the entire browser anyway.

  • How can I customize the URL you land on when you open a new tab

    Right now when I open a new tab the URL is (about:newtab which gives me the option to search yahoo.com) and I would like to land on www.google.com (as this is more useful for me). Can I customize the landing page for when I open new tabs?

    Type '''about:config''' in the URL bar and hit Enter. <br />
    ''If you see the warning, you can confirm that you want to access that page.''
    Put BrandThunder.com in the searchbar at the top, then right-click and select '''Reset''' for any preferences that appear with BrandThunder.com. Then restart Firefox.

  • How can I eliminate the amns.startnow page every time I open firefox/google?

    Every time I open Firefox to my Google home page, StartNow is also in the tool bar. How do I stop this?
    I might also say that Search| Firefox Help is also there and is redundant when "help" is also in the tool bar above.

    I don't want to get rid of a tool bar per se. It's the fact that every time I open Firefox to my Google home page, I get a line-up of three pages: Google, Search|Firefox Help and Start Here under the tool bar that shows File------Help. This doesn't happen with IE. Then when I try to close, I always get the question of whether I want to close three tabs. It's just a nuisance.

  • How can I save the window size so that when I restart Firefox the size of the window is appropriate for my portrait mode monitor?

    I have a 2 monitor setup with my second monitor in portrait mode. Whenever I start Firefox (on my 2nd screen where I always open it) I always have to resize the window so it goes down to show more info. I cannot figure out how to reset any type of default window size for the height and width parameters.

    Hi,
    From your post, I assume you are creating WebHelp output.
    You  need to create a window for the help in the Project Set-up pod. Then,  you need to make sure you call the output so that the window is used.  See http://www.grainge.org/pages/authoring/calling_webhelp/calling_webhelp.htm.  This article on Peter's site give you an overview over the  possibilities of calling context sensitivive webhelp and also tells you  how to specify the needed window. Also, the installation directory of  RoboHelp 8 contains a directory called CSH API. In there are example  API's your developer can use to call the help.
    Greet,

  • HT2486 How can I change the first contact that appears when I open address book?

    Every time I open Address book, it opens on the same person. Someone I don't really want as the first contact I see every day!...
    Is there a setting to change this? or a way to set a "Key Contact"?
    Thanks

    Use the Settings app
    Settings > iTunes and App Store > tap on the incorrect Apple ID that appears > Sign Out > then sign in with your correct Apple ID.
    Keep in mind that all apps downloaded or purchased are always associated with the Apple ID used to purchase or download them. As those apps have updates you will need to enter the Apple ID and password that was used for them. If you want to avoid this delete all of the apps purchased or downloaded with a previous Apple ID and download them again with the current Apple ID. You will have purchase any apps that are not free.

  • How can i disable the automatic move command?

    how can i disable the automatic move command?  when i choose the move command it automatically moves whatever element that's selected, using the previous dimension used to move something.  Big Problem.

    went back to see if Preview was checked - it isn't.
    It happens when we double-click on the arrow to open the move dialouge box, but the box doesn't open - instead the selected item is automatically moved #!@**
    that's what we need to stop... any ideas?
