In the Firefox Downloads dialog box, does the option "Remove from List" mean that the selected download will be deleted? (I want to delete it.)

I am using Windows XP Professional, Version 2002, Service Pack 3, on a Dell_GX620. I went to the Addictedtoradio.com website that I had used on my Samsung phone yesterday for the first time. I was able to play 1980's music on the phone without any special adaptations to the phone. I tried to do the same on my home computer. I went to the website but when I tried to access the music, it directed me to download a file, Xvidinstall.exe, and I did that. It is described as 382 kb - totalvidplayer.com. I am using AVG Anti-virus free edition that is supposed to protect my computer when web browsing. However, once I had downloaded the file, I got the standard Windows message that it is an executable file that might contain viruses that could harm my computer. At this point I began to wish that I had not downloaded it, I don't want to take the risk. I'll get my music another way. I have not opened the download but I assume it is now on my computer and I want to get rid of it, without opening it. When I right-click on this file (in the Firefox downloads list), one of the options is "Remove from list". There is no "Delete" option. If I remove it from the list, will it be deleted? Or will it still be present on my computer but just not shown in the list? I would like to remove it from my computer because it might contain viruses. How can I be certain to remove it safely?

The remove from list just removed it from Firefox's download list, the file will still be on your computer. You'll have to find wherever you download the file to on your PC (right click it in Firefox's download manager and click "Open Containing folder") and delete it there to remove it from your computer.

  • Ryanair 'flights' dialog box does not load; all the rest works, and in Opera it works; can you help? it seems everything else works fine

    Ryanair 'flights' dialog box does not load; I tried in other languages too, it is the same error; it works fine with opera browser in this very same computer I am writing in; please help, if you can; it worked up to two months ago, then I don't know, too long has past from last time I used ryanair, and the rest works all fine, it seems... thanks so much for your time,

    Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).<br />
    See [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] and [[Troubleshooting plugins]]<br />
    <br />
    If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all your extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.<br />
    You can use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.<br />
    You have to close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")<br />

    Hi Noel,
    Actually, I just checked my scratch disk available space and it says ot is over 1.7 TB!!  I am only using the C drive as my scratch drive, as that is my only drive.  Anyway, I appreciate your help! Still will not function properly.  Maybe I should try reinstalling Photoshop.

    Using Photoshop CS6 and after printing approx. 10 cards on an Epson R3000 printer the program gives me a dialog box saying "There was an error opening your printer. Printing functions will not be available until you have selected a printer and reopened any documents."  Even after closing and reopening the program, the print command is greyed out so I cannot select any printer. This also happens with a Brother laser printer. Both printers will produce a test page out side of the Adobe product. Help!

    I cannot get any help either.  I get the message "There was an error opening your printer. Printing functions will not be available until you have selected a printer and reopened any documents."  I have reinstalled all drivers, powered off/on all printers (2 of them - a Brother HL - 4040cn and an Epson Stylus Pro 7890 - which all worked fine until this morning).  There appears to be no path to a solution.  I have read all the forums and tried about 20 different suggestions all to no avail.  Reboots, changing cables, reinstalling printers and drivers and Photoshop CS6 - ALL TO NO AVAIL.  On a macbook pro retina with 10.10.3.  This issue is out there and some get solutions - but not all - that's my crowd...the not all crowd.  I have yet to be able to print from CS6 any more.  This is a show stopper and my patience is wearing thin.  And I'm tired of stupid questions like "is your printer powered on?" give me a break.  This appears to be an adobe photoshop cs6 problem - as I can print from every other application.  Anyone have any ideas?  Adobe should have something?...

  • Save As dialog box does not gain focus (bring to foreground) with Windows 7?

    Hello,
    I've got several users with Microsoft Windows 7 (64bit) and Adobe Acrobat 9 Standard (OEM) with the same problem.  When you go to Print to your PDF Printer, the Save As... dialog box does not come to the foreground and gain focus.  Most often it just sits in the taskbar blinking to get their attention.
    However the users get frustrated and often don't realize the Save As box popped up at all.  They did not have this problem with Windows XP.
    I actually can replicate the problem on my own PC.
    Any workarounds for this behaviour?
    Thanks,
    -Tim

    This appears to be a Windows 7 focus issue.
    You can back up your registry and try the fix below, it worked for me.
    Fix number 1
    1. Open Start >> Run and type “regedit” (without quotes)
    2. Navigate to the following path:
    [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Desktop]
    3. Right Click on the empty space and create a new DWORD value, or modify the existing value named ‘ForegroundLockTimeout’, set or modify the value to 0. (this value will cause the application to take the focus instantly.)
    4. That’s it Done, exit registry and restart windows for changes to come into effect.

    My Laptop was stolen. On the Itunes, I had many songs saved from other sources, that are currently on my Itouch. Itunes wants me to Erase to sync, and I dont want to erase. I have no access to those songs anymore. Is there a way to sync my Touch with my New laptop withoit erasing my I touch?

    Syncing to a new iTunes library or computer will erase your iPod. Only if you back up your iPod manually before syncing, you can restore your device from that backup again. A manual backup does not include the sync process.
    Do this:
    Disable autosync in iTunes, connect your iPod to your new computer and right click on it in the device list and choose backup. iTunes will backup your ipod without syncing.
    Transfer your purchases the same way, choosing "transfer purchases" this time.
    When you connect your device for the first time, all media content will be erased. But you can restore your settings and app data from your manual backup afterwards.
    Don't forget to set up at least one contact and event on your new computer to be able to merge calendars and contacts when you sync the iPod for the first time.
    Music is one way only, from the computer to your device, unless you bought the songs in itunes and transferred your purchases.
    There is 3rd party software out there, but not supported by Apple, see this thread:http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2013615&tstart=0

  • I have seven(7) podcasts on my iPhone 4 that iTunes will not delete. iTunes copies them from the phone to the library and will not  delete them from the phone when deleted from the library.

    I have seven(7) podcasts on my iPhone 4 that iTunes will not delete. iTunes copies them from the phone to the library and will not delete them from the phone when deleted from the library. I have replayed the podcasts over and over and they still won't delete. Podcasts are WSJ Tech briefings.

    This happens to several of my podcasts whenever an updated iOS comes out. You can delete the episode directly from the phone by swiping it from left to right. That seems to fix the issue (they drop off the phone and dont reappear on iTunes). It's as if iTunes stops tracking the play count for some shows.
    Hope this helps!

  • Does all my music stay on my MacBook Pro after I sign up for iTunes Match, or does it get removed from my Mac?

    Does all my music stay on my MacBook Pro after I sign up for iTunes Match, or does it get removed from my Mac?

    Hi,
    It remains on your hard drive. iTunes match scans your library to determine if tracks are matched or uploaded. It does not touch the files on your hard drive. You have the option to upgrade tracks for matched versions but you need to delete tracks and download new versions.
    You can camn opt to delete tracks from your library. This will free up space and you will be able to stream your music. In any event, I suggest that you back up your music to an external drive.
