How do I get rid of myinfotopia? I am using Firefox

hello, this sounds like a problem possibly caused by adware on your pc.
please go to ''firefox > addons > extensions'' & remove any suspicious entries (toolbars, things that you have not installed intentionally, don't know what purpose they serve, etc).
<br>also go to the windows control panel / programs and remove all toolbars or potentially unwanted software from there.
<br>finally, run a full scan of your system with different security tools like the [http://www.malwarebytes.org/products/malwarebytes_free free version of malwarebytes] & [http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/download/adwcleaner/ adwcleaner].

  • How do i get rid of maverick? life use to be so simple?

    hi how do i get rid of maverick, life use to be so simple.  i don't want gmail or icloud and my mail is a mess.  can you help me remove maverick 1.0?
    thank you kindly,

    Good idea. Reverting to a previous version of the OS is notoriously difficult. I'm contemplating doing it myself as I'm ... less than enchanted, let's say, with Mavericks. There are some real advantages but there are so very many disadvantages too.
    I've always said that I'm not an "early adopter" of anything for very good reason. Sadly, I violated my own rule this time. Foolish of me, I know, but here I am: stuck with a bunch of broken apps and plagued by a seemingly endless series of individually-minor-but-crippling-in-the-aggregate malfs.
    If you try it and it works, please post the procedure here.

  • HT1766 I have an IPAD 2 and when I awoke it I received an error message; "This IPad hasn't been backed up for 3 weeks." It goes on to tell me when backups occur but it doesn't back up automatically. How can I get rid of this message and use my IPad?

    I have an IPad 2 and when I woke it up it gave me an error message on the desktop: "iCloud backup: This IPad hasn't been backed up in 3 weeks. Backups happen when this IPad is plugged in, locked, and connected to Wi-Fi." I have done all of these and it still doesn't allow me to get rid of the error message. I even connected the IPad to the computer and attempted to back it up using the Web but it still doesn't get rid of the message. Help!

    Reset your iPad to clear that condition:
    Reset: Press the Home and On/Off buttons at the same time and hold them until the Apple logo appears (about 10 seconds).

  • How can I get rid of the prompt to update firefox? I don't want to update

    A box appears when I try to connect to the internet that says there's an update for Firefox. I did that previously and got stuck with Firefox 4 which took me forever to get rid of and downgrade back to 3.6 I do not want to upgrade but this box has appeared constantly for 4 days now. I keep saying 'no' but wonder, will it go away by itself eventually?

    1. Uninstall Firefox
    2. Download Firefox 3.6.20 from the first link provided by cor-el.
    3. Install Firefox 3.6.20.
    4. In Firefox, click the Tools menu > Options. In Options, select the Advanced tab. UNDER the Advanced tab, click the Update tab. Now under
    "Automatically check for updates to" , un-check Firefox and under "When updates to Firefox are found", select the first option "Ask me what I want to do".
    This way Firefox will not check for updates and you wouldn't be prompted every time to update.

    Browser Firefox version 30
    Home page Google.com

  • How can i get to a website with TOR using firefox as my explorer?

    i have to use TOR to connect to some sites.in the past i used firefox and it had an option of turn on or off vidalia...but then i downloaded this new version and now i can't open any websites by firefox...i can't activate this on firefox.

    Unfortunately for some routers, you do have to use Internet Explorer to access them. You should have Internet Explorer on your computer (if not in the All Programs list, open up windows update, that is Internet Explorer). so you can then access that IP, and get your network key.
    For future reference, write the network key down and take it to the side of your router, it makes it easier in the future :)

  • How do I get rid of yahoo when I open firefox?

    I recently had my computer fixed a had to reinstall firefox. Now yahoo comes up instead of Google.

    Hello,
    Did you install Firefox from Mozilla? If you don't the installer is usually bundled with adware. Make sure you download from:
    * https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/new/
    * https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all/
    Check your search bar settings, the bar to the right of your address bar. If the icon is a Yahoo icon, then click on it or click the down triangle to see the list of search engines. Click Google if you want to change it back to that.
    You can also check your home page settings at:
    * Tools (or [[Image: New Fx Menu]]) > Options > General
    You may also want to look at your Firefox shortcut:
    * Right click your Firefox shortcut and select Properties
    * Check the Target line under the Shortcut tab and make sure nothing is appended after "firefox.exe"
    If you have a Yahoo toolbar, uninstall it:
    # Click the menu button [[Image:New Fx Menu]] and choose Add-ons.
    # In the Add-ons Manager tab, select the Extensions panel.
    # Select the toolbar you wish to remove.
    # Click the Remove button.
    # Click "Restart now" if it pops up. Your tabs will be saved and restored after the restart.
    After Firefox restarts, install the [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/searchreset/ Search Reset Tool]. This extension will reset some of your settings, including your home page and search, and then uninstall itself.
    For further information, please read [[Remove a toolbar that has taken over your Firefox search or home page]].
    If you find that your preferences keep getting reverted back after you restart Firefox, please see the article [[How to fix preferences that won't save]].

  • How do I get rid of 'urgent your version of Firefox is no longer protected against online attacks'. I have the current version. This is irritating. If it continues, I'll get rid of Firefox.

    I've downloaded the 'new' version twice in the last week. This has no effect.

    You need to reset your user agent string (identifies version of Firefox). Yours has been modified by several add-ons and is now stuck at showing Firefox 3.0.5
    For details of how to fix this see https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Websites+or+add-ons+incorrectly+report+incompatible+browser
