I use Firefox and a website that I visited showed I need internet explorer to view. Will I lose my firefox if I download Internet Explorer?

If I install Internet Explorer, will it in anyway mess up my Firefox? I want to continued using Firefox rather than Internet Explorer.

Try the IETab2 extension. <br />

Unless you are in the EU, you should have a version of Internet Explorer already installed. Have you looked in the Start > Programs or All Programs menu?
Installing or upgrading IE shouldn't have any effect on your Firefox installation, except possibly the "Default Browser" setting in Win7 which is easily changed.

    Your System Details are showing Fun Web Products. Suggest you look in Add-ons - Extensions and Plug-ins, and Control Panel>Add/Remove programs or >(newer version) Programs and Features. You could also do a search of your computer.
    Fun Web Products(associated with MyWebSearch) always seems to cause problems, Alexa does, too, but less often - there may be conflicts.
    I'm not an expert on these two products. I'm afraid I can only alert you to the problems. Google will show you plenty of evidence of problems. You might also try the Search Firefox Help box above - a gold mine but it usually requires a lot of digging.
    You can start Firefox in Safe Mode - Hold Shift Key down as you double click on the Firefox icon>ignore the page that opens>Continue. If that improves things you could do a little troubleshooting(Safe Mode, Problematic extensions etc), use default theme, -

  • I want to restore my old version of firefox and my security that was disabled as well as all my plugins, add ons, and so forth. How do I do that?

    I want to restore my old version of firefox. I also want to restore my security that was disabled and all my plugin and add ons. How do I return to where I was?

    The only fully supported and updated versions of Firefox are 3.6.22 and 6.0.2. All other versions contain security of stability errors that have not and will not be corrected.
    '''''"...my security that was disabled..."'''''
    Any toolbar that your security application installs into Firefox may have been disabled because the developer has not updated their toolbar.
    *The functioning of your security application should not be affected, just the toolbar.
    *You can try updating your security product as some security application developers have recently released updates of their products that are Firefox 6 compatible.
    *You can visit and/or post on your security application developer's forum to see if they can make suggestions for you or let you know about their plans to update for Firefox 6 compatibility and to confirm that your security application is still fully functional, just the toolbar is disabled.
    Firefox has a built-in function that provides one of the major functions of most security application toolbars. '''''Safe Browsing''''', the built-in Firefox component, will warn you when you try to go to a known Malware or Phishing site:

    I can see many plugins that were not disabled; click "More system details" to the right of your original post.
    If any extension(s) other than Java Console (see below) were disabled, please reply with a list of the disabled Extensions and/or Plugins (Add-ons > Extensions and Add-ons > Plugins).
    '''<u>Java Console</u>'''<br />
    Unless you do Java programming/development or debug Java applets on web pages, you do not need Java Console. Java update will install a new Java Console with each update. Removing the Java Console extensions has no effect on the functioning of Java for web browsing. You can see, '''''but not remove''''', the Java Console extensions in Add-ons > Extensions. Java Console extensions can be safely removed '''''manually''''' by following the instructions in this article:

    Can someone tell me if this is a problem with Google or Mozilla? or both? or neither?

    This type of behaviour can be caused by malware. Try running several malware scanners. It is best to run several as each will pick up things that the others miss. Some scanners you can try are:

  • My 64-bit Hewitt Packard computer displays Firefox and any websites there on,as tiny or small. Why?

    Firefox is the only browser that displays all pages in a small size. I can't find any other way on the computer to increase the size. Maybe it's a conflict between my computer being in a 64-bit computer as opposed to my 32-bit computer which has no problem displaying pages correctly.

    I have had a similar problem with my system. I just recently (within a week of this post) built a brand new desktop. I installed Windows 7 64-bit Home and had a clean install, no problems. Using IE downloaded an anti-virus program, and then, because it was the latest version, downloaded and installed Firefox 4.0. As I began to search the internet for other programs to install after about maybe 10-15 minutes my computer crashes. Blank screen (yet monitor was still receiving a signal from computer) and completely frozen (couldn't even change the caps and num lock on keyboard). I thought I perhaps forgot to reboot after an update so I did a manual reboot and it started up fine.
    When ever I got on the internet (still using firefox) it would crash after anywhere between 5-15 minutes. Since I've had good experience with FF in the past I thought it must be either the drivers or a hardware problem. So in-between crashes I updated all the drivers. Still had the same problem. Took the computer to a friend who knows more about computers than I do, made sure all the drivers were updated, same problem. We thought that it might be a hardware problem (bad video card, chipset, overheating issues, etc.), but after my friend played around with my computer for a day he found that when he didn't start FF at all it worked fine, even after watching a movie, or going through a playlist on Youtube.
    At the time of this posting I'm going to try to uninstall FF 4.0 and download and install FF 3.6.16 which is currently on my laptop and works like a dream. Hopefully that will do the trick, because I love using FF and would hate to have to switch to another browser. Hopefully Mozilla will work out the kinks with FF 4 so I can continue to use it.
    I apologize for the lengthy post. Any feedback would be appreciated, but is not necessary. I will try and post back after I try FF 3.16.6.

  • Each time I open my computer, I get a full screen about Firefox and a toolbar that needs a yes or no answer. How do I get rid of this?

    I used to be able to press 1 button to get to my Google Home page, but now that I have downloaded the latest version of Mozilla Firefox, the "home page" is now information about Firefox and at the top of my computer, there is a question about security that needs me to say 'no' each time. I do not want to go through these steps every time I start my system.

  • How can I use iWeb to create website that contains a lot of downloadable audio files?

    Hi
    How to use iWeb to create a website that contains a downloadable audio files.  I'm uloading about 15 GB of audio files.  I need to creat folders "albums" and then put the files in these folders.   Any advise?
    Thank you very much for your time to this
    W B

    The important thing is not to put the audio files directly into iWeb: if you do that then every time iWeb decides it needs to upload the entire site you will find yourself uploading all 15GB of audio files, which won't make you happy. Start by uploading the files to the server - in folders as suits you - and then link to them in iWeb.
    If you want them to download rather than play, you may be able to set up an .'htaccess' file in the folder which will force a download - it depends on whether your hosting service will allow this. The method is described here:
    http://www.wilmut.webspace.virginmedia.com/notes/missing/download.html
    Here is an example of a simple link which produces a download (without the process described the audio file would play in the browser in a blank page):
    http://rfwilmut.net/stars/dawson2.mp3
    Then all you need to do is to provide a link, designed however suits you, in your iWeb page. If your server won't allow the .htaccess file then you will have to ask visitors to control-click (Mac) or right-click (Windows) on the link and choose 'Download linked file' or equivalent - not so convenient; or otherwise zip the files first, which won't much reduce their size but will force a download (and of course the recipients will have to unzip them).
    If you want the files to play in a player in the page, you can use an html snippet to provide a player as described in this page (you will also need to upload a script to the webspace - this is provided in the page):

    From http://watchseries.lt/tips#htw
    <pre><blockquote>Why videos do not work for me?
    You need Flash Player or DivX Player. Both of these programs are used everywhere online; their size is small and will not harm your computer. You should download them from here:

  • Trying to load firefox and get warning that file can harm my pc

    I am having a problem loading firefox. I get a message that this type of file can harm my computer. I click save but still it does not download.

    To experiment more safely, could you create a new Firefox profile? The new profile will have your system-installed plugins (e.g., Flash) and extensions (e.g., security suite toolbars), but no themes, other extensions, or other customizations. It also should have completely fresh settings databases and a fresh cache folder. If we get your bookmarks into the new profile successfully, you can create a backup and restore it in your regular profile.
    Exit Firefox and start up in the Profile Manager using Start > search box (or Run):
    firefox.exe -P
    Any time you want to switch profiles, exit Firefox and return to this dialog.
    Please do not delete anything in this dialog.
    Click the Create Profile button, choose a name like TESTING, and skip the option to choose a folder. Then start Firefox in the new profile you created.
    If you have backups in the JSON format (e.g., bookmarks-2014...json) try to restore one to this TESTING profile. This article has the steps (you will need to use Choose File... to get to the backup):
    [[Restore bookmarks from backup or move them to another computer]]
    Does that work and give you complete results?
    If not, the next thing I would try is to drop in the places.sqlite file you have and see whether Firefox can read it properly.
    First, open up a Windows Explorer window to this new profile folder. You can do that using either
    * "3-bar" menu button > "?" button > Troubleshooting Information
    * Help menu > Troubleshooting Information
    In the first table on the page, click the "Show Folder" button
    Got the list of files? Okay, leaving that window open, switch back over to Firefox and Exit the browser, using either:
    * "3-bar" menu button > "power" button
    * File menu > Exit
    Pause while Firefox finishes its cleanup -- you will see the timestamps update in the profile folder, then rename '''places.sqlite''' to something like places.old and drop in the places.sqlite file you want to test.
    Start Firefox back up again. Bookmarks?
