See [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Uninstalling_Firefox Uninstalling Firefox - MozillaZine Knowledge Base]
It contains instructions on how to manually remove Firefox if the uninstaller does not work.
Could the virus have infected your profile folder (location where Firefox stores bookmarks, passwords, cookies and other user data), if it has you may want to remove the profile folder as well, but will lose all of your user data.

    I think you have to sign into your Amazon Kindle Account, find the book in your archive and delete it there.  Otherwise you can delete it from the device and leave it in the archive, should you want to look at it again.

  • When I open the desktop icon, it goes to another spot on my desktop called Y&U. I want to change it to go to the normal Mozilla firefox, but I cannot fix it.

    caught small kids messing with my computer. went through and closed a BUNCH of windows without looking to see what the heck they were. Next time that I tried to use firefox, the icon that is on my desktop went to another part of my computer called Y&U. It is another thing in my desktop. I can type web addresses in part of it and they still come up, but I want to fix whatever is wrong with the icon, so that it goes back to opening mozilla firefox to begin with. I have examined all of the settings that I can think of, but haven't found anything that works. Changing the homepage doesn't work AT ALL, and am tired of hearing that suggestion. Please help...

    Since the "FREAK OpenSSL bug" in the Mac which has been making the news over the last couple of days doesn't apply to Firefox but does affect Safari and other Mac browsers, you might want to hold off uninstalling for a bit. But if you must, drag the Firefox application to the Trash. Next, locate your Firefox profile in /Users/your user name/Library/Application Support/Firefox/Profiles and drag that to the Trash too. Then empty the Trash.

    hello, you might have malicious addons present. please try these steps:
    # [[Reset Firefox – easily fix most problems|reset firefox]] (this will keep your bookmarks and passwords)
    # afterwards go to the firefox menu [[Image:New Fx Menu]] > addons > extensions and in case there are still extensions listed there, disable them.
    # finally run a full scan of your system with different security tools like the [http://www.malwarebytes.org/products/malwarebytes_free free version of malwarebytes] and [http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/download/adwcleaner/ adwcleaner] to make sure that adware isn't present in other places of your system as well.

  • Mozilla Firefox 5.0 disabled several ad-ons...!!! I want them back. How do I reverse this action Mozilla Firefox 5.0 did? in English

    Mozilla Firefox 5.0 disabled several ad-ons when I installed it on my new laptop...!!! I want these ad-ons working. How do I reverse this action Mozilla Firefox 5.0 did to my CPU without warning me?
    I've used Mozilla Firefox 4.0 for years on my desktop, and now...problems! Do I need to uninstall the program. Is there a feature to re-enable the disabling that Firefox did without using a Microsoft restore point? Please inform

    When Firefox disables an add-on, it usually is because it includes a list of compatible Firefox versions and it hasn't yet been updated for Firefox 5. If it worked on Firefox 4, there is a good chance it will work on Firefox 5, but no guarantee.
    You can force Firefox to ''ignore'' add-on version restrictions by (what else) installing an add-on. Then you can test whether the add-ons important to you actually work in Firefox 5.
    [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/add-on-compatibility-reporter/ Add-on Compatibility Reporter :: Add-ons for Firefox]
    After you install this add-on and restart Firefox, there will still be a message that "--- is incompatible with Firefox 5.0" but the add-on will be enabled and a Disable button will appear for that entry.

  • I get error messages when I try to visit certain websites using Mozilla Firefox but not when I use other browsers

    About two days ago I noticed that when I tried to access certain websites using Firefox I always got this error message; "The connection was reset". I initially thought it was a problem with my isp before noticing that the network was fine on my phone and iPad. I then attempted opening the same links that brought up the error message on the TorBrowser and it worked perfectly.
    Basically the only website that works on my Firefox browser right now is Google but if I do a search on Google and then click on any link that comes up as a result I get the same error message, "The connection was reset". I can also log into my gmail account but I cannot access any other website including Feedly, Tumblr, Twitter, Yahoo, Wordpress, Blogspot, even though they work fine on my other browser.
    I cleared my cache and cookies, wiped out all the browsing history but the problem persisted so I uninstalled Mozilla Firefox and reinstalled it. The problem is still there. I checked the proxy settings, I went through all the solutions on this page https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/firefox-cant-load-websites-other-browsers-can?esab=a&as=aaq and still nothing. I am not sure what the problem is here but any solution will be much appreciated. I have used Firefox for years now and I am not really comfortable using another browser.
    I use a Macbook OS X Version 10.9.4 and the latest Firefox 32.0.1

    Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems. <br>

    If the new profile works then you can transfer files from a previously used profile to the new profile, but be cautious not to copy corrupted files to avoid carrying over the problem <br>

  • WHAT HAPPENED TO MY COMPUTER AFTER UNINSTALLING MOZILLA FIREFOX!!!!!?????

    I uninstalled Mozilla Firefox so I could reinstall it since I was having problems printing from my online banking because I could only print it through Internet Explorer.
    After uninstalling, I downloaded Mozilla Firefox 19.
    When it came to "RUN" or "SAVE" my computer asked me for my Administrative password (which it has never done before and I've owned my laptop since 2007. I tried my password, but I was denied.
    What did uninstalling Mozilla Firefox do to my computer??????????
    I NEED Mozilla Firefox in order to print shipping labels to send packages.
    What changed my computer after the uninstall process???? And how can I fix it?????

    Some people have reported luck using the following steps:
    * [https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/fx/#desktop Download] and save the installer (i.e., choose Save, not Run) to a convenient location
    * Right-click the installer and Run as Administrator
    Does that work?
    If the problem is that you cannot even download the installer, is the problem limited to Firefox or are other downloads affected? I wonder whether it's an IE setting.

  • Ever since I agreed to install the new Mozilla Firefox I can't even send an e-mail successfully. I want the old Mozilla Firefox back and I will never agree to a newer version of anything. Please give me the old version back.

    I want my old Mozilla Firefox back because ever since I agreed to try the new Firefox, I've had nothing but problems every single time I try to send an e-mail. What used to be easy and quick, now is difficult and takes an inordinate amount of time; sending it over and over, and telling the message that tells me something like a page is not responding, to send it again or quit; and I have to do this many times over to get it to send a text. That has never happened before. I will never agree to a newer version again. Just please give me back my old Mozilla Firefox.

    Beginning with Firefox 4, Macs must have an Intel x86 processor (which you do NOT have; yours is a PPC Mac) '''''<u>and</u>''''' OSX 10.5 or higher

    The good news is that Firefox 3.6.24 still supports OSX 10.4 and Macs with the PPC Mac architecture. The bad news is that support for the Firefox 3.6.x series is likely to end in the first quarter of 2012.

    look people, i may have a solution for this. This happened to me a few times before and resolved alone, but last time it happened was when i turned off my router and back on while my comp was running and appeared when i tried opening firefox after that. so wat i did was i shutdown the computer and the router and tried turning both on again, and it resolved.
    Therefore, Summary: Shutdown computer then turnoff router then turn both back on
    Hope this helps anyone.

  • Since installing Firefox 4 Beta 5, the Add-Ons manager is empty. My add-ons still appear to be installed and working, but I can't install more, or uninstall, or configure them.

    My add-ons still appear to be installed and working, but I can't install more, or uninstall, or configure them.

    Try forcing Firefox to rebuild the list of installed add-ons.
    # Open the profile folder, for details of how to access it see the [[profiles]] article.
    # Close Firefox, then delete extensions.sqlite (you can also delete extensions.cache, extensions.ini, extensions.rdf if they exist)
    When you restart Firefox the list of installed add-ons should be rebuilt.
    If that did not work, you may have an add-on that is causing the problem, try the options in the [[troubleshooting extensions and themes]] article.
    If you type '''about:addons''' into the location bar does that bring up the list of add-ons? I have seen a blank add-ons list if Mr Tech Toolkit add-on is installed, accessing the add-ons manager by typing about:addons in the location bar is a workaround with that add-on installed. The author of that add-on is working on an update.
