Is Firefox 11.0 Compatable with Avast Antivirus 7.0? Having Problems!

I am running Windows XP. I run Firefox 11.0, and I have Avast Free Antivirus Ver. 7.0.14267. When I open Firefox it always shows "cannot find server" screen. It cannot connect to internet. Multiple tries has no effect. I've done enough diagnosis to learn that Avast is what is stopping Firefox from connecting. Ive already checked the avast settings, and they're normal; nothing changed. But since I updated Firefox I can't get to internet. When I disable Avast, Firefox immediately goes to my home page every time- no problem! With Avast on , Firefox cannot connect to server! Are there any fixes for this? I like Avast and don't want to get rid of it, unless absolutely necessary. Can anyone help with this? I'd appreciate any help. Thanks!

I intend to. However, the Avast Forum is not accessible right now. They are experiencing some problems and the page is not available.So I was hoping I could find some help here .

  • Your update 33.0 is not compatable with Norton antivirus and the screen only turns black when trying to open firefox. Please help

    Please see question. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling, but with no success. Chrome and Int. Exp both work fine, but nothing comes up but a black screen covering most of my monitor in Firefix.

    Sorry but it is always the other way. Norton needs to update their Firefox extension to work with the new major version Release so it can tie in with their antivirus client.
    The good news is that Norton as usual has a live-update patch for Firefox 33.0 which was available on October 13, the day be fore Firefox 33.0 was Released.

    As for the black screen it may be due to old graphic drivers

    start Firefox into safemode '''by pressing the shift key while the application is launching''' & disable Hardware Acceleration in the Firefox ''menu ≡ > Options > Advanced > General'' (You will need to restart Firefox to take effect).

  • Is Firefox 5.0 compatible with Avast 6.0?

    When message came up saying a new update was available for Firefox it also said was not compatible with avast. Avast is my choice of anti virus software and do not want to change. So is it compatible or not?

    Hi
    1. It is compatible.
    2. Always good to work on upgraded version, as you dont know when the support for ECommerce 5.0 will be stopped by SAP.
    Also, please refer to the below useful links -

  • Is this Firefox 5 now compatible with avast anti-virus?

    When Firefox 5 was first released, there was a message that it was not compatible with Avast. Has this problem been resolved?

    Try the new pre-release version of Avast.

  • When will Firefox5 become compatible with avast antivirus?

    I get a warning when attempting to update to Firefox5 that avast antivirus is not compatible...

    If Firefox disabled some add-ons (especially extensions), it likely is because they include a list of compatible Firefox versions and haven't yet been updated for Firefox 5.
    For more information on avast, see this thread: [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/questions/841934 I have just updated Firefox on my desktop. In order to operate it had to disable avast, my open source excellent anti virus software - a surprise that Firefox is compatible! Is there an avast! update that is compatible? Or a fix from Firefox coming? | Firefox Support Forum | Firefox Help].

  • Is it true that the latest upgrade is not compatible with AVAST AntiVirus programs? I saw a post with one of the recent updates, and suggested it wouldn't work with my AVAST?

    As Above. Before I download the recent update to Fire Fox I want to be certain that it is compatible with ALL AVAST ANTI Virus programs, or I will simply not down load it.

    The only thing about Avast that might not be compatible is their Web Rep extension for Firefox. If that is the case, it is up to Avast to keep their Firefox add-on up-to-date as Mozilla releases new versions of Firefox. Did you check with Avast to see if an update is available? If there is, you probably need to have Firefox 5.0 installed to be able to install that update.

  • Using firefox for internet banking with ING (the netherlands gives a problem that I did not see before.

    When trying to approve the payment (via TAN code) Firefox does not continue to finalize it. Contact with the ING bank confirmed this problem popped up. They advised to use Internet Explorer instead. Indeed with Internet Explorer everything worked OK. ING suspects Firefox not accepting their website as a save site anymore. Can I define ING as a save website to overcome the problems and if yes where do I do this?
    In the ING system as soon as you want to pay the system asks for a Tan code which is provided by SMS. You fill in the TAN code and press the continue button. Normally then the payment is made. Unfortunately this did not work anymore. It worked in the past. Other functionality on the ING sites worked OK!

    i didn't read a lot of your 2nd paragraph, but it seems like the password is the issue, right?
    do a true clean install
    reboot your machine and hold down command+option+r, you should see a spinning globe - if you don't see the globe or anything that reads internet recovery, shut down and try again
    at menu, chose disk utility and once there, find your HD on the left side, select the physical name and erase it as mac journaled
    exit disk utlity
    at menu, choose install OSX
    this time, when it asks for a password just hit continue, it will let you complete without a password
    you should be able to get into your laptop, now figure out what password you'll be able to use with your kb issue

  • Indesign CS6 on MACs with OS 10.8 are having problems with links

    Hi
    Indesign CS6 on MACs with 10.8 are having problems with links. All links to other files have to be updated when opening a file although definitely nothing has changed to the linked files.
    We can rule out our company's networking and the system hosting the files (HELIOS software on RedHat Linux VM). This happens with newly created Indesign files and with old ones. E.g. we create a file on Tuesday, save it and open it again on the exact same MAC on Wednesday and all links to other fiels (.indd, .png, .bmp, etc. nothing uncommon) have to be updated as they all show the yellow triangle + black exclamation mark symbol next to them. Has anybody else experienced this, What can we do? We have tried absolutley everything and updated all software from MAC OS to CS6 itself but nothing seems to help on the long run.
    Any further information required?
    M. Miller

    Thanks for your quick reply.
    We actually noticed that there also seems to be something wrong with the timestamps:
    If we open the infos via the MAC finder to a file (.psd e.g.) which is linked in one of our indesign files, it states a certain date of creation.
    If we then switch to the Indesign file we just opened in which we had to update all links and open the infos to exactly the same file we looked at in the finder, a different date of creation is stated. So there also seems to be a mistake here (hope it's clear what I mean).
    We are ruling out our network as the error cannot be "re-enacted". We have created numerous test files in Indesign (simple white page containing one link to a .psd file which is also used in one of the supposedly defective files) and have opened them on various MACs with various OS versions over the past days/weeks but unfortunately the files open without any notifications or errors.
    Just as a background: a few months ago, the problem seemed to occur between MACs with differing OS, 10.6 - 10.8 at first. A file which was created on a 10.6 MAC could not be opened without updating all links on a 10.8 MAC. That is why we updated everything to 10.8. The error did not occur for about 2-3 weeks but then reoccured again.?
    Have you heard anything similar?

  • FireFox 3.6.15 will not start it is NOT compatable with Avast 6.0.1000 sandbox, it gives the following error when I try to open in sandbox: XULRunner Error: Platform version '1.9.2.15' is not compatible with minVersion =1.9.2.14 maxVersion = 1.9.2.14

    Before FireFox was updated to ver 3.6.15, FF would open in Avast sandbox with no issue. Since the update to FF I can only open FF outside of Avast sandbox. Avast version 6.0.1000
    I turned off all Add-ons and still No Joy!
    Windows 7 Pro 64 bit; I7-950 CPU, fresh reboot does not fix this issue.
    Just populated : Troubleshooting Information

    I had already tried a reinstall before, but thanks for the suggestion. Starting FF in Safe mode did not help either.
    XULRunner is specific to FF. Mostly found discussion about using the code in web pages when I used Google before posting.
    When FF went from version 3.6.14 to version 3.6.15 this issue started. Please note the Error message and the version info I just mentioned.
    '''"Platform version '1.9.2.15' is not compatible with minVersion > =1.9.2.14 maxVersion < = 1.9.2.14"'''
    '''The Platform was revved up from 1.9.2.14 to1.9.2.15'''
    I could not find information on: minVersion or maxVersion much less how to change them in XULRunner.
    '''''It is definitely a Mozilla FF issue'''''.
    Avast sandbox is up to date and works just fine with everything else. More importantly it worked just before the update was installed.
    The only reason I bothered with the update is because Mozilla touted it as a security issue and there was NO mention of any known issues with sandbox software.

  • Firefox is not compatable with my thermal printer, how do I fix this?

    When I print my UPS labels using Firefox, it always prints 2 labels. I called UPS to fix this problem and they said it is a problem with my browser, not the printer. I was wondering if something could be done to fix this-because I really hate wasting so many labels.

    Sorry, I don't have access to a UPS thermal printer to be able to test that situation myself, but I am curious which preferences are set in Firefox for that printer.
    There are two places where you can get that information, the first is Help > Troubleshooting Information - Copy All to Clipboard, then paste to a text program ''(not an option in 3.5.x versions and earlier versions, was new for Firefox 3.6)''. The other is through '''about:config''' and use '''''printer''''' as the Filter at the top.
    I would suspect the printer plugin is sending the second command to Firefox, resulting in a 2nd label being printed - especially with that 5-10 second delay being there. My "gut feeling" that Firefox would spit the second page out a lot faster, if Firefox was causing that to happen.
    Have you tried opening any of the files for that plugin to see if there are any plain Engilsh prefs that can be changed, or are those files all "machine language" like DLL's appear to be when opened in a text program?
    IIRC, the UPS supplied terminal which contained a label printer that we had in the retail chain I worked for in 2000-2004 always printed two labels and we either tossed the 2nd label out or put it one another of the 6 sides of the box.

  • Why is Firefox 4 not compatable with my MasterCook program?

  • Why is the latest version of firefox no longer compatable with my BOUGHT & PAID FOR anti-virus?

    My brand new computer came from the factory with Trend Micro Titanium Maximum Security as an Anti-Virus. When its free trial ran out I BOUGHT & PAID for it for a YEAR. I liked you guys & used you as my only browser. Today Firefox updated & my anti-virus is no longer compatible. No Anti-Virus, NO BROWSING ON FIREFOX!!!!

    Are you sure you're not referring to an extension that is included with the ant-virus program? Anti-virus programs work on the system level, so it shouldn't matter what version of Firefox you are using. Sometimes AV programs come with bells and whistles, like adding menus, options, or toolbars to certain programs. If that's the case, don't worry; your anti-virus program is still working fine with Firefox.
    If you go to '''Help > Troubleshooting Information''' then click '''Copy all to Clipboard''', open a reply to this post, and go to '''Edit > Paste''' to paste the info from your Troubleshooting Information page, we should be able to see if you have any extensions installed on Firefox by an anti-virus program.
