I WANT TO REMOVE BABYLON SEARCH WHICH APPEARS WHENEVER I START FIREFOX

In addition to above I wish to inform you that Babylon addon is not available in my computer so that I may remove the same. I suspect some scam as I want Google as my default web browser & I want that whenever I start Firefox I should see startup page of Firefox and not Babylon search page, Babylon was erroneously downloaded by me which I removed but I am not able to remove Babylon search.
''(changed text to lowercase for readability - c)''

I did this but the problem still persists. The Babylon icon is still on the page and it is still using Babylon as a search engine. I went back into the about:config and when I type in keyword the adjustment suggested is fine but there is another Babylon lineafter it. It is as follows:
extensions.BabylonToolbar.keyWordUrl i user set string http://search.babylon.com/?babsrc=SP_ss&q={searchTerms}&mntrId=a4c2fb5f00000000000000ff9c40d7f0&tlver=1.4.35.10&affID=100489

How do I remove babylon search from my computer

I had a technician to clean and remove Babylon search from my computer and it still attached itself to whatever I'm doing. I uninstalled Mozilla fox at least five times , then re-installed. However, I cannot get rid of Babylon search. I spent $100 dollars to resolved this problem and it's not working. I handle high confidential files on my computer. I am afraid to open the file due to fear of information being compromised.
Please Help!!!

please make sure that you don't have any babylon related extensions or other suspicious entries like 3rd-party-toolbars presently installed under firefox > addons > extensions (babylon also might install some unwanted stuff that comes under the names "Browser Manager", "Browser Protector", "Bprotector", "Object Installer", etc.) or in the windows control panel > programs section.
afterwards install the search reset addon - it will revert the most common customziations those adware programs do in firefox back to the default: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/searchreset/

Can't uninstall/remove babylon search

I am using Firefox V 15.1
I can't get rid of Babylon Search
I have unistalled it and all its variants using appwix.cpl it no longer appears in my programs.
I have reset Firefox, this works initially but babylon returned the next time i opened firefox.
I have run about:config changed the keyword.url to google and then searched for babylon and reset all the strings. babylon still comes back.
I have searched my computer tirelessly for the folder/file no joy.
I can't regedit.exe because i'm unsure exactly which dll relates to babylon.
It was unbelievably easy to remove from IE. Mozilla need to sort this. Otherwise in 2 days time i'm taking to twitter and FB to vent, there will be a knock on effect and it's reasonable to believe that several hundred thousand people will have heard about this and gone back to IE by the middle of next week.

Have you made sure you've uninstalled all Babylon programs from your control Panel? there are several. B-protection, browser manager, etc. I'd go back and see if there is anything suspicious. Also try to scan for malware.
You can try some of the following programs to scan for malware:
* [http://www.malwarebytes.org/mbam.php MalwareBytes' Anti-Malware]
* [http://support.kaspersky.com/faq/?qid=208283363 TDSSKiller - AntiRootkit Utility]
* [http://windows.microsoft.com/MSE Microsoft Security Essentials] (A good permanent anti-virus if you don't already have one)
Further information can be found in the [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues caused by malware]] article.

I want the Programming pallet to appear whenever I right-click while in the block diagram

I want the Programming pallet to appear whenever I right-click while in the block diagram. Right now I have to look at the Express dialog, arrow down and then click on Programming. I want Programming to pop up first. This has to be dirt simple but for some reason I'm not seeing the solution in Help.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

go to tools...options...controls/functions palette...formatting
Select "Icons only" and "category(standard)".
Now right-click and pin the palette to get to the "customize" button. Select "Change visible palettes..." and click "select all".

How to cancel an annoying new wallpaper I clicked in response to an unusual menu which appeared when I opened Firefox.

To access the internet, I click on "Firefox" in my starter menu. Recently, after I did this, I was presented with a menu apparently inviting me to select a choice of background designs. I selected one, and it now appears whenever I have my Fierfox internet function running. It is an annoying design, not least because most of it is covered by the main part of the Firefox page. Only the top of the new design is visible, and it makes the top four rows of icons and buttons harder to read. How can I switch it off?

That sounds like a persona (light weight theme).
To switch to the default theme, if using the old style menus, in the Tools menu select Add-ons. If using the Firefox button, click on it and then select Add-ons.
In the add-ons manager go to the Appearance section, then in the list of themes click on the default theme to select it. Finally click on the Enable button to switch to the default theme.

I want to use the speed dial extension when I start firefox. I have the option checked in speed dial settings but firefox does not open to the speed dial. How do I get this to work?

I want firefox to open up to the speed dial add-on so I can use it as my start page. In the speed dial options I have checked the option to start firefox in the speed dial but when I open firefox it doesn't open the speed dial.

Sorry, I don't use that add-on, and I don't see a SpeedDial support forum listed on the download page. 
Here is the SpeedDial homepage.

Add-on updates produce webpages that keep appearing when I start Firefox--how do I keep this from happening?

When the add-ons are updated, a webpage appears stating that the update was successful. In the past I would exit the tab and this notice would not appear again. However, these pages appear to be persisting when I close Firefox down and then reopen immediately and later. I have tried deleting all history and cookies, and resetting the home page multiple times, but none of these have done the trick. The version of Firefox I'm using is the latest version (7.0.1). I use Win 7 (64-bit).
History: this all started when my AddonFox add-on updated in September and notice web page saying it updated appeared. This has kept reappearing each time I enter Firefox. In addition since then, an update for the ReadItLater (v. 2.1.3), ColorfulTabs, and IE Tabs add-on updates have caused the same issue. As a result, whenever I enter Firefox, my homepage opens, as well as the notification pages that these four add-ons have updated.

See:
* http://kb.mozillazine.org/Preferences_not_saved
This can also be a problem with the file [http://kb.mozillazine.org/sessionstore.js sessionstore.js] and sessionstore.bak in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Profile Folder]
Delete [http://kb.mozillazine.org/sessionstore.js sessionstore.js] and sessionstore.bak in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Profile Folder]
If you see files sessionstore-##.js with a number in the left part of the name like sessionstore-1.js then delete those as well.

How do I delete the "Add-On" pop up box that appears when I start Firefox

Every time I open Firefox a pop up box appears for add-ons. It is blank and does nothing. I close it and other one appears and I close that, then firefox starts. It's not a big thing, but it's a pain. It does not appear when I start IE8.

You can try http://kb.mozillazine.org/Preferences_not_saved
You can also try to delete the files extensions.* (extensions.rdf, extensions.cache, extensions.ini, extensions.sqlite) and compatibility.ini in the Firefox [[Profiles|profile folder]] to reset the extensions registry. New files will be created when required.
See "Corrupt extension files": http://kb.mozillazine.org/Unable_to_install_themes_or_extensions
If you see disabled extensions that are not compatible on the next start in "Tools > Add-ons > Extensions" then click the "Find Updates" button to do a compatibility check.

Numerous Norton anti-virus error messages appear whenever I start my iMac.

Whenever I restart my new iMac I get approximately 10 NORTON AntiVirus Error messages which state: "Norton virus Auto-Protect could not continue. Please run Live Update or reinstall Norton Antivirus and Restart (Code: 10)." I've tried all these things and have attempted to uninstall Norton and Symantec products to no avail. In my system preferences under the category OTHER there exists a file called Norton Auto-Protect and Norton Quick Menu which I can't do anything with. How can I stop these messages from appearing every time I start my iMac? Ideally, I'd just like to get rid of Norton and Symantec.

Here is an article with a direct link to their uninstaller:

I loaded a jZip programme, now whenever I start Firefox it open with the jZip search page and I can't permanently change the home page to my own selection. How can I get rid of theis iZip home page

I have tried all the optons to change the home page, but when I exit from Firefox and restart, it will revert to the iZip search engine home page. I even deleted the izip search engine reference from the searchplugin directory but with no success

You can open the about:config page via the location bar and do a search for jzip via the Filter at the top of the about:config page. 
You can reset all jzip related prefs via the right-click context menu to their default values.
To open the about:config page, type about:config in the location (address) bar and press the "Enter" key, just like you type the url of a website to open a website. 
If you see a warning then you can confirm that you want to access that page. 
You can use the Filter bar at to top of the about:config page to locate a pref more easily.

How do i disable the firefox software updater which pop out whenever i start firefox? I use Firefox 24 and already disabled it through "options"

I already applied the "never Check for updates" option in Options>advanced.
But it is always asking...

Are you using the Firefox 24.0 Release which is four versions/security updates behind or are you using the Firefox ESR which is based on Firefox 24.0 and currently at 24.'''4'''.0 security update in line with Firefox 28.0 release.
If you are using the Firefox 24.0 release and want to stay on 24.0 then to be up to date security wise you could use the 24.4.0esr instead. The next version ESR will be based on will not be until Firefox 31.0 and the 24 esr will have a couple update then still.
