I cannot uninstall fire fox

im having problems with fire fox it seems that it has a virus and i cannot uninstall it from programs and features

According to your installed plugins list in your posting you don't even have Flash installed for Firefox. IE uses a different version of Flash '''(ActiveX)''' than is needed by other browsers '''(Plugin version)'''.

  • Can't uninstall fire fox 34.0.5

    Using windows 7 can not uninstall fire fox I have try many times by restoring at numberous date etc. but can't get out of computer.

    '''[http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all/ Download Firefox Full Installer For All languages And Systems]''' {web link}
    Save the file. Then;
    Using your file browser, open the '''Programs''' folder on your computer.
    '''Windows:''' C:\Program Files
    C:\Program Files (x86)
    '''Mac:''' Open the "Applications" folder.
    '''Linux:''' Check your user manual.
    Look for, and rename any Mozilla and Firefox folders by adding '''.old''' to them.
    Now run the full installer.
    If all goes well, remove the OLD folders when you are done.

    Hi Shannon,
    I'm having the exact same problem and I cannot believe your question hasn't been answered yet!
    Also, I expected a lot more people to have this same problem.
    I encountered an entry on the stackoverflow website, was that you?
    Quote:
         " I've flashbuilder 4.6 and I need to uninstall it. It appears to be missing the installation package, and as such it doesn't appear in the control panel->uninstall list for windows 7.  I have filed a case with adobe for help (as its a paid product), but after month & 1/2 no answer. So any suggestions on how to get rid of it including any links it will have to the registry or similar. It must be a clean uninstall as to install the newer version the current one must be removed and the newer version installation knows that I have it (previous version) installed already.
    I have tried the uninstall tool called Revo as well without success.
    Cheers."
    This person answered his/her own question:
    Quote:
    "What I needed to do was to find the exact version of the software I used to install it originally. Then once I ran the installer, (for the already installed software) windows picked up the installation packager and I could uninstall it.
    Once removed I could then install the newer version of the same software."
    I hope this was you and you have found your answer already, but I will try this one and see if it works for me too.  I'm not sure yet
    Help from Adobe on this will be greatly appreciated!!!
    Thanks for your post!

  • I cannot open my att web mail with fire fox i can log in but cant open the mail

    i was doing a search one day and up popped white smoke so i deleted every thing pertaining to it now i can log onto att email just cant open the mail i get this error code
    Apache/2.2.9 (Debian) PHP/5.2.6-1+lenny9 with Suhosin-Patch Server at us.mg203.mail.yahoo.com Port 80 i've uninstalled fire fox three times completly to no avail i can accsess mi mail with iexpolrer never had this problem some users are having this same problem

    Whuch suggestions did you try? Here are two recent threads I found:
    * [/questions/977835] firefox wont dowload any attachments from yahoo mail, all other downloads work
    * [/questions/978924] Can't open pdf attachment in Yahoo Mail. Worked in 25.0 not 25.0.1. Still works with IE.
    Did you try [/questions/977835?page=2#answer-506091] (change settings from "Full featured" to "Basic")?
    Are you accessing Yahoo Mail directly from https://mail.yahoo.com/ instead of through a bookmark? Edit: I see philipp already suggested this and linked to yet another thread, [/questions/971042]

  • Linux mint 14 wont install update or do anything with fire fox

    when ever I try to istall fire fox, msg file unavailable or nothing happens at all, software manager tried synaptic tried, uninstalled fire fox because I tried to up date but said files not available so removed to try reinstall still files unavailable also not trusted message which I choose ignore

    This is a really interesting subject!
    I have a couple of questions:
    1. Isn't it possible to use xchg to swap the functions?
    Something like:
    ref_sys_open = (void *) xchg(sys_call_table[__NR_open], new_sys_open);   <---- switch to custom function
    xchg(sys_call_table[__NR_open], ref_sys_open);  <----- siwtch back to original function
    2. I'm getting "BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request" and functions aren't switched back to original ones. That's probably from the functions that try to set RW/RO, but I'm not sure why it's happening. (I'm on x64). Have you had the same problem?

  • How do I stop Fire Fox auto Updates?

    all of the boxes are properly checked and it still updates. I want total control of what goes on my computer. I hate auto updates, I want to tell it when and if to update. I am about to uninstall Fire Fox and change if I can't solve this. How do I stop you from over riding my settings of NEVER check , never update ? I do not let any one or any program change anything on my computer NO MATTER WHAT! SO what gives, how do I stop you from doing it?

  • My web search tool bar taking over FIRE FOX

    I HAVE HAD TO UNINSTALL "FIRE FOX", BECAUSE OF A TOOL BAR CALLED "MY WEB SEARCH". WHEN I UNISTALLED FIRE FOX, I WAS ABLE TO RE-INSTALL IT USING "GOOGLE" AS MY TOOL BAR. BUT WITHIN A FEW DAYS, THE "MY WEB SEARCH" TOOL BAR CAME BACK, AND AGAIN I COULD NOT GET IT TO STOP TAKING OVER FIRE FOX, EVEN WITH MY INTERNET OPTIONS. WHEN I CONTACTED "FIRE FOX'S" SUPPORT ON {1/17/2012}, THEY WANTED TO CHARGE ME! TO REMOVE WHAT THEY SAY IS A VIRUS! I THINK THIS IS STUPID, AND I HAVE UNINSTALLED " FIRE FOX ", AND I WILL NOT USE IT AGAIN, BECAUSE OF THE VIRUS....

    Do a malware check with some malware scan programs. You need to scan with all programs because each program detects different malware. Make sure that you update each program to get the latest version of the database before doing a scan.

    I cannot get firefox to open

    First try to reset Firefox printer settings, if you are still unable to print you can then reset '''all '''firefox printer settings.
    You mentioned there is no print.print_printer when you go to about:config. You have to type it in the actual '''filter '''field to pull it up.
    Reset firefox printer settings:
    1. In the Location bar, type about:config and press Enter.
    2. In the '''Filter''' field, type '''print.print_printer.'''
    3. '''Right-click''' on the print.print_printer setting and select '''Reset.'''
    4. At the top of the Firefox window, click on the Firefox button (File menu in Windows XP) and then click Exit.
    '''The first way was just simple reset of firefox printer settings. However, if it failed to solve the problem then you need a full reset of all firefox printer settings.
    1. Open your profile folder:
    ''At the top of the Firefox window, click on the Firefox button, go over to the Help menu (on Windows XP, click on the Help menu) and select Troubleshooting Information. The Troubleshooting Information tab will open.''
    2. Under the Application Basics section, click on Open Containing Folder. A window with your profile files will open.
    ''Note: If you are unable to open or use Fire​fox, follow the instructions in Finding your profile without opening Firefox.
    3. At the top of the Firefox window, click on the Firefox button (File menu in Windows XP) and then click Exit.
    4. In your profile folder, copy the prefs.js file to another folder to make a backup of it.
    5. Open the original prefs.js file in a text editor (such as Wordpad).
    6. Remove all lines in prefs.js that start with print. and save the file.
