How to disable "getting started with Firefox" web page when starting Foxfire?

Every time I open Firefox I get the additional web page "getting started with Firefox" and do not know how to disable it. Can you help?

The page may be set as an additional home page, the following link shows how to check and set your home pages - https://support.mozilla.com/kb/How+to+set+the+home+page

How do I get Started with Dynamic Web Pages?

I am presently following Janine Warner's Dreamweaver CS3 video series. I noted that the Advanced part of this tutorial series focuses on Dynamic Web Pages, but only uses Cold Fusion. From what I can gather, CF costs around $1000, while PHP is free! My question is really this: in going from static to dynamic web design I'M A COMPLETE NEWBIE, so what do I need? I am doing some planning here -- I know it won't happen overnight.
(BTW: I was surprised to discover that CF is NOT included in my CS3 Master Collection). It might appear then that support for PHP is better than for CF?
Apparently, I need a server -- well, OK I have PCs to spare. Fast internet, I also have: Comcast standard -- 12MP
Now, I think I also need Apache -- which apparently runs on the server and does something.
So then I DL PHP, figure out how it works, and it will integrate with DW CS3 in some way.
Now, what have I missed? Is there some really basic, first-time-with-using-a-server place or tut I should go to or read? Before you ask: No, I'm doing all this myself on a shoestring budget.
Are there expensive hosting fees for dynamic web sites or other items I will run into? Can I just use a PC over my Comcast cable as the server run from my home? (Really high traffic is not anticipated)
All recommendations appreciated, thanks.
Thom

Many of these questions have already been answered in your thread in the Dreamweaver General Discussion forum, so I'll just stick to a few basics.
You need a server whichever server-side technology you choose, but "server" is not a physical machine, but a piece of software that you install on your development computer. You'll find details of how to install a PHP environment in the following article: http://www.adobe.com/devnet/dreamweaver/articles/setting_up_php.html.
Similar instructions are available for setting up a ColdFusion server at http://www.adobe.com/devnet/dreamweaver/articles/setting_up_coldfusion.html. The article is for ColdFusion 8, but ColdFusion 9 is installed in exactly the same way.
Hosting for PHP/MySQL is plentiful and relatively cheap. However, make sure the hosting company offers a minimum of PHP 5.2 and MySQL 5.1. Hosting for CF is harder to find and tends to be a bit more expensive, but not prohibitively so.

How can I get a Japanese flash web page to display 100% correctly?

I've tried everything I can think of but I can't get some of this web site's font to display correctly. Some of the flash shows in the correct, Japanese, characters, but some of it shows as code. If I log in as a different user, and set that user's International Language preferences to Japanese, the web page displays correctly. But, when I change users, and go back to the English user, the page displays in a mix of Japanese and messed-up code.
Here is the page: http://weathernews.jp/livecam/
If I click onto a different page of that website, http://weathernews.jp/map/
the writing appears as Japanese in the box, at the bottom of the map.
But, if you click on that map, and zoom in 3-times, to the city level, the font in the box under the hourly weather and weekly weather appears as code, and not Japanese.
I'm guessing that it is a problem with the computer booting-up as being English or Japanese, and the browser, then not being able to detect which version of flash to run, the Japanese or English version, cannot display the font correctly.
Why does it happen only on some pages and not all of the pages on that site?
Can it be fixed?
If so, how?
Thanks!

Yeah, I tried Opera and Firefox, but I get the same garbled text. The only thing that makes that page open and display correctly is switching to a different user, and making that user's main language Japanese, in the international settings.
Of course none of this is all that important, I mean, it's about viewing a weather page, but I am just curious why some of the Flash is read or written so that an English language set user can see some of it displayed correctly, but not all of it, where as a user set to Japanese language settings can get all pages correctly.
I know it has to do with how the Flash Macromedia sees the main language setting for the computer, but what I don't get, is how come a user using Japanese as the main language can read English and Japanese Flash pages (pages with English commanded Java come up correctly), but using English as the main language only allows me to view Flash pages written using English commands. Can I change my Flash program to read Japanese pages, without changing my computers main language to Japanese? Or am I stuck with a Flash program that must match the main language the user is using?

How do I stop Welcome to Firefox 4 page from starting. I have a home page, but it always starts in a newtab.

Every time I start Fox4, the Welcome to FireFox 4 tab is displayed along with my home page in a different tab. How do I disable the welcome screen.
This problem started when V4 loaded. I have checked all of the Options menus.

There are a couple of possible causes for this, for details see https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Firefox+has+just+updated+tab+shows+each+time+you+start+Firefox

I upgrade firefox from 7 to 8 and now when i start firefox everytime it opens "getting start with firefox" page, in options i select the option 'show a blank page" how can i resolve this issue?

i upgrade firefox from version 7 to version 8, now when i start firefox everytime it open self the "getting start with firefox" website, in the options on firefox i select the 'show a blank page' but its not working. i am using firefox on windows XP- SP2.

Try restarting Firefox, the one time page(s) after starting a new release should disappear. Actually this last time with 8.0 they did not come up for me.
If that doesn't work then bring up '''about:config''' and place the url of the page into the filter. Right-click on anything that comes up and use "Reset".

I always have trouble with my mailbox. It is always asking for my passwords but everything has been verified. How can I get it to stop doing it and start working????

There is only one thing that happens -- the Server does not respond.
Your mac concludes that you must have entered the wrong password. That may happen once, but then other issues become more likely, and it keeps asking for a new password.
Sometimes the Server is down for maintenance. Sometimes something is configured wrong. Some services do this on purpose to get you to use WebMail (pick up your Mail with your Browser) so they can show you some ads.

When I start mozilla firefox web browser, sometimes I see a message saying that "a Mozilla Firefox is already running, please close it or restart your program", while I don't have one running at that time. What is the problem?

When I start mozilla firefox web browser, sometimes I see a message saying that "a Mozilla Firefox is already running, please close it or restart your system". As a matter of fact, there is no firefox browser running at that time. Since I cannot do anything about it, I have to restart my computer before I can use the web browser, which bothers me dearly. What is the problem?

Plug-in and tasks started by Firefox may continue after attempting to close Firefox. The "X" in the upper right-hand corner closes the Window (same as Ctrl+Shift+W) but even if it is the last Firefox window, it does not necessarily close Firefox .
'''The only proper way to exit Firefox is to use Exit through the File menu''', not the "X" in the upper right corner of last Firefox window.
''Menus hidden: then use Alt+F then X.''
'''Firefox hangs''' | Troubleshooting | Firefox Support ''(some extensions cause a problem)''
* http://support.mozilla.com/kb/Firefox%20hangs#w_hang-at-exit
Use the '''Windows Task Manger''' to remove all running firefox.exe in the "Processes"
tab of the Windows Task Manager, then restart Firefox.
"'''Restartless Restart'''" extension for Firefox 4.0 only (2 KB download )
* https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/249342/
use to close and restart Firefox after enabling or disabling an extension, switching
to a new theme, or modifying configuration files, then you don't have to worry
about delay or have to look in the Task Manager to see if Firefox is closed yet.
Uses keyboard shortcut "'''Ctrl+Alt+R'''" or a file menu option.
'''Windows 7''' users can use '''Ctrl+Shift+Esc''' to get to the Windows Task Manager quicker than starting with Ctrl+Alt+Del.
