How to uninstall firefox tv

When I open Firefox or open a new tab, I get Firefox TV! http://www.outfox.tv/?referid=130
How do I get rid of it! The Firefox TV "Uninstall does nothing and there is no application under Control Panel for removing applications. It refers you to a uninstaller link which Norton blocks! http://www.outfox.tv/OutfoxTVRemover.exe
I really, really really hate this POS!
Any help is much appreciated.

There are other things that need your attention.
Your System Details list shows that you have a user.js file in the profile folder to initialize prefs each time Firefox starts.
The user.js file is only present if you or other software has created this file and normally it wouldn't be there.
You can check its content with a plain text editor (right-click: Open with) if you didn't create this file yourself.
The user.js file is read each time Firefox is started and initializes preferences to the value specified in this file, so preferences set via user.js can only be changed temporarily for the current session.
Delete a possible user.js file and numbered prefs-##.js files and rename (or delete) the prefs.js file to reset all prefs to the default value including prefs set via user.js and prefs that are no longer supported in the current Firefox release.
You can use this button to go to the currently used Firefox profile folder:

  • How to uninstall Firefox 4.0.1 still on my computer

    It is taking up space on my computer but I have updated to Firefox 6.0.1 or whatever the newest version is.. I am confused on how to uninstall can you please help with this Thanks

    As a workaround, you could open PDFs in the Adobe Reader application rather than in the plugin. To try this:
    In Adobe Reader, open Edit > Preferences
    In the left column, choose Internet
    In the right pane, ''uncheck'' "Display PDF in browser"
    If you have the full version of Acrobat, make the same change there.

  • How to Uninstall firefox 3.6.25 with Firefox 25.01 is installed?

    I found the 3.6.25 version under the startup menu and cannot figure out how to uninstall it. it is not in the control panel add/remove, only one from add/remove is version 25 and I dont want that removed. i have even gone into regedit but no uninstall was found for that version which makes me more uncomfortable. I need help, Thanks!
    OS: Windows XP 64bit

    Is that really a Firefox 3.6.25 version or is only the user agent corrupted?
    You can check the real version in the Help > About window.

  • Where is the webpage that tells you how to uninstall Firefox on the Mac?

    I installed FF 4 on my Mac just to discover that I could not run Google Gears on it. So I need to uninstall FF4 and install FF 3.6. I searched for a page and to tell me how to do this an found one at http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Uninstalling%20Firefox. After doing part of the process and removing FF4 but not the profile I went back to this page in Safari. But not the instructions change and it is telling me how to uninstall on a PC. So how do I find the Mac uninstall page when FF is not installed on my Mac.

    It goes by you useragent to tey and serve a page based on it. To get another OS or Firefox version just look at the right of articles where it says '''Help with:''' and click on the OS and Firefox to change accordingly.
    I use Firefox on Linux so it serves me a page for Linux users yet I may want to sometimes change it for Windows when helping Windows users.

  • How to uninstall Firefox when it still says it's running

    I have checked all the troubleshooting suggestions to get Firefox running correctly again. Finally decided I just need to completely remove it and download a fresh copy.

    Certain Firefox problems can be solved by performing a ''Clean reinstall''. This means you remove Firefox program files and then reinstall Firefox. Please follow these steps:
    '''Note:''' You might want to print these steps or view them in another browser.
    #Download the latest Desktop version of Firefox from [https://www.mozilla.org mozilla.org] (or choose the download for your operating system and language from [https://www.mozilla.org/firefox/all/ this page]) and save the setup file to your computer.
    #After the download finishes, close all Firefox windows (or open the Firefox menu [[Image:New Fx Menu]] and click the close button [[Image:Close 29]]).
    #Delete the Firefox installation folder, which is located in one of these locations, by default:
    #*'''Windows:'''
    #**C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox
    #**C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox
    #*'''Mac:''' Delete Firefox from the Applications folder.
    #*'''Linux:''' If you installed Firefox with the distro-based package manager, you should use the same way to uninstall it - see [[Installing Firefox on Linux]]. If you downloaded and installed the binary package from the [http://www.mozilla.org/firefox#desktop Firefox download page], simply remove the folder ''firefox'' in your home directory.
    #Now, go ahead and reinstall Firefox:
    ##Double-click the downloaded installation file and go through the steps of the installation wizard.
    ##Once the wizard is finished, choose to directly open Firefox after clicking the Finish button.

  • How to uninstall firefox 4, MouseControl Add-on? I got to the add-on managing page, but the 'remove' , 'disable', or 'option' button doesn't respond to mouse clicking on it

    While on Firefox browser, the MouseControl add-on prevented me to open my yahoo mail and access buttons and tabs and keyboard functions on some pages. When clicked on certain button/box, nothing is recognized. I can't disable or remove this add-on, because I can't click on the 'disable' nor 'remove' buttons; the command is not recognized! I decided to uninstall Firefox 4. When re-install Firefox 4, the MouseControl Add-on was not removed and all the problems are still there.

    Hi so sorry about this problem. There was a warning (for unexpected behavior) when changing the button configuration but I agree that's not an excuse. Please uninstall it by restarting your browser in safe mode. Use the keyboard press Alt+H, this opens the help menu, use your arrow keys to move down to "Restart with addons disabled", then uninstall it from there, also please check out v1.5, this version resolves this stuck mouse issue.
    Again very sorry about this.

  • How to uninstall Firefox. There apears to be no uninstall program for Mozillla Firefox on my computer. I've tried everything suggested and nothing works.

    I have done everything your web site says to do to uninstall Firefox. Nothing works. Windows message says no Mozilla Firefox uninstall program on my computer. Do I need a special download from you to uninstall?

    Struggling with this issue, I'm surprised by the absence of an uninstaller.
    Have tried all the suggested steps and nothing worked. It is frustrating.
    My reaction is "never again". Once I get this program off my system, I'll
    stay away from Mozilla.

  • How to uninstall Firefox if Add/Remove programs won't work?

    My Firefox is completely unresponsive. I can't get a browser or anything. I just grabbed the application folder and threw it in the trash, because the add/remove program function did nothing.

    How can I make sure I've removed ALL of the old Firefox and what can I do to download the new one?

  • How to uninstall Firefox App that crashes Asus everytime it runs

    For the last versions of Firefox on Android, Firefox crashes my Asus TF300T app everytime it is run. Either being run through clicking on a link (as it was set as the default browser), or if I manually run the app. The app also crashes my tablet when I try to uinstall it. This is the only app on my tablet that does this and I now run Chrome with no problem. As of right now, I have no way of removing the Firefox App without reimaging my Android. Is there another way to remove this app?

    If you are unable to remove Firefox for some reason, you can at least change your default browser. Scroll down in Apps/Firefox and in the Launch by Default section tap the Clear defaults button. The next time you tap a hyperlink, Android should prompt you to choose an application.

  • How do I uninstall firefox 4 and get back to firefox 3.6.13?

    I installed firefox 4 to play applications in Face Book. It keeps crashing. I never had this problem with firefox 3.6.13. I can't get any help why firefox 4 keeps crashing in the middle of the games, this happens constantly. So now I want to uninstall firefox 4 and reinstall firefox 3.6.13 until I can figure out why firefox 4 keeps crashing all the time. When it crashes, it always says application did not leave a crash dump report or something to that affect. So, if someone could please tell me how to uninstall firefox 4 and reinstall firefox 3.6.13, I would be grateful. But I'd also like to get some answers as to why firefox 4 keeps crashing constantly. I've been at this for over a week now, and can't any answers. The stock questions and replies I read are no help what so ever.
    Thanks. I would appreciate if someone would email the answer or reply. [email protected] Every time I look for my questions that I have asked, I can't find them!! So I can't tell if anyone has replied or answered my questions anyway. So, if someone would email I would again appreciate it. Again, my email address is: [email protected] Thanks.
    The Box containing "This happened" I put Every time Firefox opened because the ones do not apply. But it doesn't happen everytime firefox opens, just when I'm playing in my games in Face Book, sometimes as soon as I load a game, sometimes in the of the game, and mostly when I visit neighbors.

    For uninstalling Firefox 4 see https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Uninstalling+Firefox
    Make sure you do not select the option to "Remove my Firefox personal data" as that option will delete all of your bookmarks, passwords etc.
    You can re-install Firefox 3.6.15 from http://www.mozilla.com though judging by your user agent string you still have 3.6.15 installed.

  • Firefox 4 wont even start up now. how do i uninstall firefox 4 and install previous version

    want to know how to uninstall firefox 4 and install previous version. also where to get download of previous version

    Your problem is caused by the Ask Toolbar which you have installed. There are compatibility issues between Ask and Firefox at the moment.
    Please do the following to ensure a clean installation.<br><br>
    #Use Internet Explorer to download Firefox 4.0.1 from this link: [http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/fx/?ref=logo Download Firefox 4.0.1] and choose "'''Save'''" when you see the prompt. Then save it to your desktop. ''Do not choose "Run"''.<br><br>
    #Then go to Add/Remove Programs, scroll down to "Mozilla Firefox" and remove it, choosing to keep your bookmarks, customizations etc., (''don't checkmark the box'').<br><br>
    #Then reboot and delete the folder called "Mozilla Firefox" at this location: C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox<br><br>
    #Finally run the installation file you downloaded to the desktop earlier.<br>
    Your bookmarks, customizations etc., are maintained in a different location and will become available to you again once you complete the installation.<br>
    Next, click the Firefox button and go to Add-ons, then Extensions. Find the Ask Toolbar in there and click "Remove".
    If you would still prefer to use the previous secure version, use this download link instead of the one to v4.0.1: [http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html Download Firefox v3.6.17] Otherwise the installation procedure and removal of the Ask Toolbar is the same.

  • Uninstalling Firefox 5 in order to reinstall Firefox 4

    Can you please give me step-by-step directions on how to uninstall Firefox 5 in order to reinstall Firefox 4? I recently upgraded and found out too late that 5 is not compatible with Roboform. I recently upgraded Roboform with Roboform Everywhere 7.3.2 and now that's not working with Firefox 5. Thanks for your help.
    Donna

    To uninstall Firefox 5.0 ...
    # Click the orb on the Windows task bar (which brings up what is generally referred to as the Start Menu)
    # Click the "Control Panel" link
    # Locate and double-click the "Programs and Features" control panel
    # Locate Mozilla Firefox in the list of programs that appears either double-click it. This will initiate the uninstallation process.
    # Step through the uninstallation process as prompted (keep clicking Next).
    Once you've done that, download Firefox Setup 4.0.1 from here ...
    ftp://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/firefox/releases/latest-4.0/win32/en-US/
    NOTE: Because Firefox is temporarily no longer installed, you can use Internet Explorer to download and run the Firefox 4.0.1 setup program.

  • I updated to Yosemite on my Mac. Firefox then began to freeze. I uninstalled Firefox and then downloaded/installed it again. How do I recover bookmarks, etc?

    I updated to Yosemite on my iMac. Firefox then began to freeze. I uninstalled Firefox and then downloaded/installed it again. It's possible I uninstalled everything Mozilla related. I'm not sure. How do I recover bookmarks, passwords, etc? I don't believe I previously had a username & password for Mozilla. I do have my Mac backed up in Time machine and also a Carbon Copy Clone.
    Also, I was able to migrate setting from Safari. Perhaps I don't want some of that stuff? Looking at the list of installed plugins, I have no clue if they're standard Apple/Mozilla stuff, or if they were selected by me/my family earlier in Safari? Are any of them a threat to my online security?
    Any detailed instruction would be most appreciated. I'm not much of a tech guy.
    Thanks.
