I intend to stick with Windows 2000. How can I stop the "URGENT !" nag from coming up whenever I open Firefox?

I'm using Windows2000.. Some of my key software is not compatible Windows XP or 7 therefore I don't intend to upgrade or change. I just want to get rid of that damn "URGENT !! " popup nag that appears every time I access Firefox. I'm sure there are others that have the same problem. Is there a solution?

You can disable or uninstall the Firefox Notification Hotfix 20120430.01 extension.

  • How can I stop the download dialog from appearing every time I open Firefox 5.o latest version?

    Ever since I downloaded Firefox 5.0 the other day I get the download dialog every time I start Firefox 5.0.1. I told the download dialog to save Firefox 5.0.1 when I downloaded it. If I now say yes to the dialog it will download and save a new copy of the program like 5.0.1 (1). If I say cancel on the dialog I keep getting the dialog every time I start Firefox 5.0.1.

    I have heard that Norton released an update patch for Firefox 5.0 on Tuesday 06-21 when Firefox 5.0 was released. ''(versus taking their normal six to eight weeks)'' Some Norton users have reported that the toolbar may not work if the Norton patch was installed before Firefox 5.0, instead if after Firefox 5.0 was already installed.

    How can I stop the Drudgereport page from autorefreshing? None of the standard answers work.
    ''locking - https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/questions/775159 ''

    Drudgereport includes JavaScript code that refreshes the page. You could disable JavaScript for the drudgereport site, that will stop it from refreshing. You can do that by installing the [https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/4922/ YesScript] extension which allows you to block JavaScript on sites that you specify.

  • With the new version of numbers, 3.0, how can I stop the spread sheet from scrolling horizontally without reducing the size?

    With the new version of numbers, 3.0, how can I stop the document from moving horizontally?  When I scroll up or down I find it annoying that the document might shift to the left, and then I have to scroll it back to the right.  The only way I've found to stop it from moving horizontally is by reducing the document down to about 50%, but then I can't read the document.  I prefer having the document set at 125%, but then the bottom horizontal scroll bar shows up, and then the document can shift to the left if I'm not exact with my scrolling up or down.

  • How can I stop the voice over from my apple tv

    I have just connected my Apple TV which appears to be working ok. How do I stop the interactive voice from speaking.

    I have the 2nd Gen Apple TV and it is where I said. Have you updated yours to the latest firmware/software? I can't see why you are unable to find it otherwise. I will take pictures if you want me to.

  • How can I stop the E:/ folder from popping up?

    I would like to know how I can stop the E:/ folder from popping up everytime I perform an action e.g. transfering songs, and deleting songs from library.

    This is likely due to an extension. For example, the Web Developer extension has a setting to open the error console, and some mouse gesture extensions have been known to open the error console.

  • When I open a pdf file, Firefox opens a blank window, then the file opens in a Adobe Reader window. How can I stop the blank window?

    Whether I am using Firefox 3.6.8 or Thunderbird 3.0.6, clicking on a pdf file opens a new window. After a few seconds the pdf file opens in a separate Adobe Reader window. When I am done with that and close it, I still have to go back and close out the blank window. Got to be a configuration issue some place. I have tried several settings under Tools/Options, but haven't found the right setting yet. Any suggestions?

    Thank you very much for the reply. I followed your instructions. This fixed half of the problem. Links to pdf files that are on web pages now come up with a box that asks if I want to open or save the file, without a blank browser window in the background. That is great.
    When I tested the fix with pdf file links in email, the problem still exists. I tested links in Outlook Express, Yahoo mail, and Gmail. Any time I click on a pdf link in an email, a blank Firefox window opens and then I get the small window that asks me if I want to open or save the file. Sounds like this is a configuration issue, not a technical problem. Thanks for your help.

  • How can I stop the Creative Cloud directory 'crashing' when I save/open files to/from any CC app

    I'm running a Mac 10.9, bags of space and memory, no other problems with it.
    I use Creative Cloud and sync to CC using the prescribed CC method. However if I try to open or save a file to the CC directory from within any CC app, the directory opens for a split seconds and then instantly closes preventing me from completing the action. The only way to get files in and out is by dragging and dropping them from the Finder.
    Can anyone tell me how to sort this problem out.
    Thanks

    Hi D2xS-Shooter,
    I am afraid Creative Cloud desktop app is not compatible with Windows Vista. If you run into problems there are very limited resources from Adobe to assist.
    Creative Cloud is a collection of apps with various different tech specs

  • How do I fix the toolbars issue I'm having whenever I open Firefox 4?

    EVERY time I open Firefox 4, the entire window flashes black, and the only way to stop it is to right click on a toolbar (between a flash) to bring up the menu and check or uncheck to view one of the toolbars.
    On my PC, I had the same problem but I thought I fixed it when I reset my toolbars. I've reset my toolbars a few times on my notebook, with no success. The issue occurs even in Safemode, with all addons disabled and settings reset.
    I'm at a loss. What can I do to fix this?

    A new profile does not fix the issue. And before I reinstall Firefox I just thought of something. When I do the temporary fix of checking or unchecking a toolbar the new Firefox button disappears, no matter which toolbar I select. Could the button be the reason for the flashing?

  • How do I stop the side toolbar from appearing every time I open a pdf in Acrobat DC?

    Right side tool bar is annoying in Acrobat DC . How can this be fixed?

    Hi, VP JonRerera.
    1. This is a very ugly design -- I understand Adobe wants users to pay money for those functions, but make it occupy users' precious screen space by default is a very awkward way. 
    2. Acrobat DC does not really "remember" the last state!! Every time, when we open a pdf file, the tool pane will be on the right. You are wrong with your product !
    3. As an computer software engineer, I do not think fixing this one takes ~3 months. It only need to switch the default mode, unless Adobe is unwilling to do it.
    4. People have figured out how to solve the problem (smarter than Adobe engineer??)
    Solution by tmmcentyre
    Go to the install directory, i.e." C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Acrobat Reader DC\Reader\AcroApp\ENU". Create a new subfolder (I used "Disabled"). Move 3 files from the "ENU" folder into the new "Disabled" folder: AppCenter_R.aapp & Home.aapp & Viewer.aapp. Open a PDF and no more Tool Pane!  I originally moved just the "Viewer" file but if you clicked on "Home" or "Tools" on the toolbar you couldn't go back to the "Document." Moving all 3 files takes care of that issue. Like a lot of people I don't and won't ever use any of the tools. I just want a reader. Let me know if this works for you.
    The new "right hand toolbar" in Acrobat DC is always on by default, proving instant access to frequently used tools. That said, we're definitely hearing a # of customers that want Acrobat DC to "remember" the last state. So if you close it, it'll remain closed when you open it next.   Looking to have a fix in place in next ~3 months here.

  • How can I stop the Downloads folder from constantly reappearing?

    Every time I open or restart Firefox 9, the Downloads folder in My Documents keeps recreating itself. I have downloads set to always ask me where to go, and I have absolutely no need of a special Downloads folder. How can I get FF to stop creating this folder? Annoying to have to delete it every time - and I like FF to do what I tell it to.

    See:
