I have Kaspersky virus protection and it says Firefox has been reported as unsafe to download. Is this true?

I used fiefox before my last crash 6 months ago. When I reinstalled all my other software I tried to load firefox from the web. I go the message from my Kaspersky not to download as it was reported by Microsft as being dangerous. What is the real situation and shoudl I disregard ther warning. I liked the firsfox when I had it before.

That sounds unusual. I am guessing it would have been a false positive, and and any such report will have been corrected by now. However be careful you know what site you are actually using, just in case you are being redirected to some spoof site.
Try for instance http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html
No doubt others will quickly respond if there is any genuine warning still displaying about firefox downloads.

  • TS1292 My pin number had been already use? I bought a $10 card and it appears that has been used. How can i solve this?

    Hi!!
    My pin number had been already use? I bought a $10 pin number and it appears that has been used.
    How can i solve this?
    I already speak with a representative of the provider company and they told me to contact Itunes or apple to solve this.
    Help me please!!
    I cant neither pay with my Master card debit and now with a pin.

    From where did you buy this "PIN"? And did you get an actual card, or did they just send you a number? If you got only a number, then you may well have been defrauded. You'll need to go back to whoever sold you this "PIN" to resolve the problem. Apple to the best of my knowledge does not authorize any company to provide codes rather than a physical card and hence probably cannot help you if you did not get a physical iTunes card or receive a gift certificate issued by the iTunes Store themselves.
    Regards.

  • My iTunes gift card should have a balance but it keeps saying it has been redeemed

    My iTunes gift card should have a balance, I keep getting amessage saying it has been redeemed.  How do I find out the balance of the card?

    You can enter the card umber into your iTunes account only once. Any balance left, will show up in your account, not on your card.

  • I bought a song off Itunes and it says it has been dowloaded and is already on my phone. However it is not. It will only play off of WIFI and will not let me delete it so I can redownload it again.

    So I bought the song 'Gold' by Britt Nicole the other day because I heard it on the radio and liked it.
    It downloaded normally except I accidentally clicked the little 'stop' button that displays while it is still downloading to my Iphone. It would not play, and it was greyed out so I couldn't even select it. No biggie, I thought, I'll just delete the song and download it again.
    Wrong, I couldn't delete it, and I couldn't plaly the song either. So I deleted my entire music library from my storage thinking it would solve the issue. It didn't. Every song was deleted from my phone EXCEPT 'Gold.' It was still saying it was already on my phone, already downloaded. But it isn't there.
    I can only play the song when I am on wifi in my house. Other than that it says I have the song downloaded already but I don't really have it. It's annoying and I've googled for an answer but can't find one. Please help! I don't really want to have to reset my phone just to solve the issue.

    Try:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Download the song on your syncing computer and sync via iTunes.
    Then delete/redownload as necessary.

  • PLEASE HELP. I have Windows 7 on my laptop and I am using firefox 11. Firefox has been doing good since I downloaded it but not as of today.

    Firefox is running very slow and keep's saying not responding for 3 seconds and then does it again repeatedly. Please even when I type words and letters from firefox it types very slow and what I am typing has to catch up with the last thing I typed. It has been doing good ever since I downloaded it but now it sucks bad, not very happy with firefox now. I have windows 7 on my laptop and I have firefox 11....PLEASE HELP Thank you

    Another standard diagnostic step is to try Firefox's Safe Mode to see whether it is caused by a custom setting or add-on.
    First, I recommend backing up your Firefox settings in case something goes wrong. See [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Backing+up+your+information Backing up your information]. (You can copy your entire Firefox profile folder somewhere outside of the Mozilla folder.)
    Next, restart Firefox in [http://support.mozilla.org/kb/Safe+Mode Safe Mode] using
    Help > Restart with Add-ons Disabled
    In the Safe Mode dialog, do not check any boxes, just click "Continue in Safe Mode."
    Does Firefox behave any better?

  • I am running windows xp home edition on my netbook. I have Kaspersky virus protection. Your new 6.0 blocks my access to Kaspersky. How do I get the older level that works with it?

    It blocked the access to Kaspersky and corrupted my Kaspersky database. I had to reload. Not much of a good "upgrade" experience

    See Kaspersky for a Firefox 6 compatibility update.

  • HT1349 I do not have an APPLE.  But I downloaded ITunes on my HP computer.  I also paid for Miss Kitty slot machine and it says it has been downloaded.  But when I click on it nothing happens.  HELP !!!!!!

    First of all, I do not have an Apple anything.  I just down loaded ITUNES onto my HP dekstop computer.  It went in with no trouble.  I also paid, and downloaded Miss Kitty Slot Machine App.  It was downloaed, it says.  But, when I click on it, nothing happens.  I am new to all this stuff, what am I doing wrong?  PLEASE HELP !!!!!

    Hi,
    The items that you can purchase from iTunes in the form of apps are for either an iOS device (iPhone, iPad, iPod) or for Mac Computers.
    The chances are the app you have downloaded is either written for an iPhone or iPad (iOS device -although even then there can be differences) or for a Mac computer (even then it may be OS version specific)
    In a search for "Miss Kitty Slot" in iTunes I found this
    It says it is an iPhone App.

  • I'm trying to change my apple ID and it says it has been verified, but it still will not change on my phone, so I cannot access my iCloud or iMessage, what am I supposed to do to fix this problem?

    I have been trying to change my Apple ID for my iPhone account because the e-mail on there is an old e-mail that I cannot use anymore. I have went on the website and went through all of the steps of changing it, and I've changed everything to my updated e-mail and verified it as well. On my phone, it still has my old e-mail address, and keeps popping up any time I try to access iCloud, iMessage, etc. that my password or e-mail is invalid. I'm not sure why it's not changing on my phone or what other steps I'm supposed to take in changing it.

    If they are no longer in your camera roll, save them to your camera roll before deleting the account (open your my photo stream album, tap Select, tap the photos, tap the share icon -- box with upward pointing arrow, the tap Save to Camera Roll).

  • HT204053 My wife and I have an iphone each using one apple id. How do we stop items being deleted from one phone and then find it has been deleted from the other?

    My wife and I have an iphone each using one apple id. How do we stop phone contacts being deleted from one phone and then find it has been deleted from the other?
    Also this works when one of us downloads an app it appears on the other iphone

    You need to use separate iCloud accounts. This will mean that you can both have your own separate contracts and calendars and put an end to them being deleted by each other.
    Whether or not you have a separate iTunes account, is up to you. If you have a separate iTunes accounts you will not be able to access the music, books, apps that have been purchased by the other. This may be exactly what you want, but it also means that you both may end up purchasing the same item.

    Your profile says you are using OS X Mountain Lion, so if that's true then you have all of Apple's anti-virus protection and if Software Update says you are fully up-to-date on all your Security, Java, etc. updates, then you are fully protected against all currently known malware that can impact OS X and Apple apps.
    Keep Java (not JavaScript) disabled in all your browsers unless you must visit a site that requires it, and turn it back off as soon as you are finished to make certain you aren't one of the first to discover the next Java threat that will most certainly show up one day soon.

  • Will it work with my Kaspersky Virus Protection -it keeps exluding that when I want to update my version

    I have been using Firefox for awhile with my Kaspersky Virus Protection - but this time, when I'm ready to update to Firefox 4, it says it will disable that program - is that correct?

    Check with Kaspersky to see if they have an updated version of their extensions available for Firefox 4. <br />

  • Virus Protection and Firewall Question

    I just switched from a PC to a Mac. Should I download virus protection and if so which one is best for a Mac? Also, I believe my computer came with the firewall turned off... should I turn that on?

    Should I download virus protection...
    No. The OS has built-in recognition of known Mac malware in files downloaded from the Internet. All commercial "anti-virus" products for the Mac are worse than useless. Do not install any of them.
    ...and if so which one is best for a Mac?
    Your mind. All Mac malware takes the form of trojans, which depend on the victim's ignorance to be installed. Don't be ignorant.
    Also, I believe my computer came with the firewall turned off... should I turn that on?
    Not unless you are on an untrusted network, such as a public hotspot, and have services enabled in the Sharing preference pane. Under any other circumstances, the firewall should be left off.
