Is it possible to add a dozen or more host files to completly block Yahoo or MS Bing and keep it off the search engine.

I do not want Bing in my computer.
I get angry and uninstall the new firefox because i can not keep bing at bay. Every time I go back and install Firefox because I do not like Opera I have Microsoft's Bing invading my system as yahoo search or bing.
I want to know what are the host files I need to enter, so I can completely block this search engine virus that keeps invading my system.

For the record: Yahoo search is Microsoft Bing, with a different name.
Yahoo search was a great search engine in the past, that knowledge was given to Microsoft to improve Bing, and Yahoo signed an financial agreement with Microsoft to use Bing.
I can remove Bing, but it always returns in 6 hours, or in several days. It has the qualities of malware, in that it keeps reappearing. There is no method I can find of keeping Bing search off my system, other than to not install Firefox.

    Hey Ananya,
    I believe what you want to do is possible, but it will not be
    easy.  If you want to add a scroll bar that will scroll the graph
    back and forth but keep the axis set, you would want to add a
    horizontal or vertical scrollbar.  Then you would create an event
    handler for the scroll event.  You would have to manually plot
    different data within this scroll event.  Unfortunately, there is
    not really a built in way to do this with the Measurement Studio plot
    control.

  • I ordered a ringtone that came as a song and did not appear in a position to be added.  It did not show up but came through as a song and asking me to add it to a playlist.  This is not what I wanted to do and I promptly follow the prompt to "Buy"

    I ordered a ringtone that came as a song and did not appear in a position status to be added.  It did not show up but came purchased as a song and now asking me to add it to a playlist.  This is not what I wanted to do and I promptly follow the prompt to "Buy more options" to get what I thought was a ringtone.  Please help!

    The ONLY place to buy a ready made ringtones is from the iphone itself from the itunes app, then "More">"Ringtones"
    If you bought from your computer, then you need to create the ringtone.  You can create a ringtones from just about any song/sound file for free.
    Google will find several ways to do this.

  • Bing does not appear in add ons or in the search engine list or control panel, in fact there is no reference to it on my computer, yet still, it has hijacked my search and the normally very useful 'highlight, right click, open search in a new tab'

  • I need to create a NEW folder for bookmarks, not add to an existing one. I've been looking for over 2 hours and can only find the latter. Also, if possible, I'd like to remove a redundancy on my Bookmarks Toolbar. Thank You!

    I am working on many projects and my bookmark folders suffice. I need to create new folders, but not "Smart Folders." After over 2 hours, I keep coming back to the same description of how to add new folders to existing ones. NOT what I want to do. This used to be easy, but the set up must have changed as I've been trying to do this all day with no success.
    Also, somehow my gmail inbox appears twice in my bookmarks toolbar. Again, I am finding information that does not apply to me in help and former question files and links. How do I remove things from my bookmarks toolbar?
    Thank you and PLEASE, oh Please e-mail the answer to me as I seem to have problems with your site.

    Open the Bookmarks Library, to do that in the Bookmarks menu select "Organize Bookmarks"
    In the Bookmarks Library, in the left hand pane click on "Bookmarks Toolbar" to select it, now in the Organize menu select "New Folder".
    If you have the capability to right-click, you can also right-click on the Bookmarks Toolbar and select New Folder.

  • Is it possible to add an HP all in one printer to my vetwork via UBS on an Airport Extreme so that the scanner and print functions are available over the network?

    Im very new to this "networking thing" so your patience is welcome. I have managed to get the Time capsual AE up and running and thanks to bonjour I have a printer via USB working. However, its an all in one machine and I can not work out how to get the scanner to work over the network - or even if its possible. Is this possible?

    No, you cannot scan over the network, unless the printer has network capability.. in which case the printer must connect via ethernet or wireless not USB.
    All USB printers are designed as local printers not network.

  • Is it possible to add a thumbnail to an image file with core graphics ?

    Hi,
    I'm writing a small image processing application.
    For image reading and writing I'm using core graphics (CGImageSourceRef / CGImageDestinationRef).
    Several image formats like jpeg or tiff provide the option to store a thumbnail in the file.
    To get this thumbnail I'm using
    CGImageSourceCreateThumbnailAtIndex( ... )
    which works fine so far. If there is no thumbnail in the image it is created
    with this function. Now, in the case there was no thumbnail in the image I would like to store
    the created thumbnail in the image file when I write it to the disk. So far I failed to find a function in core graphics
    to perform this task. In the CGImageDestinationRef documention it is only mentioned, that thumbnails
    are written into the output file, but not how to add these.
    I fear I'm overseeing something very trivial ...
    Regards,
    ingo

    I believe that a Smart Object will solve your problem.
    place your original image in a new file as a smart object and do the same for the reflection (made by Transforming, reducing the opacity and introducing a mild horizontal motion blur) on its own layer, then:
    by double clicking on the smart object in the layers panel and returning to the original image, any change you make in the original and save, will automatically update the upright image and its reflection.
    Nice one Norm.  Five Kudos points to you.

  • How can I save a web page without creating a dozen or more tiny files, which is worse than Internet Explorer?

    When I try to save a Firefox web page, I get about a dozen tiny files with funny names cluttering up my documents folder, and making it hard to find anything. This reminds me of problems I used to have with Internet Explorer more than ten years ago. But at least, IE was kind enough to gather all of these files in a single folder, named "files". Firefox dumps them all into my documents folder. Messy.
    Years ago, I discovered Opera, which offered a file format that combined the original html code with the other files into one file: an internet archive, with the extension mht instead of htm. I used Opera for years, but recently became aware of the advantages of Firefox.
    A few days ago, I downloaded the latest version of Firefox, and installed it. I have been evaluating it ever since. It looks good; I have figured out (more or less) how bookmarks work, and I'm getting used to the taskbars.
    But when I try to save a page, I still get a deluge of tiny files cluttering up the target folder. Firefox doesn't save pages in archive form, but only in the old scattered form. Of course, I could simply save only the html. Maybe that's the best thing, but it loses a lot.
    The chaos of junky files cluttering up my target folder is enough to send me back to Opera, despite its limitations.

    This extension allows for web pages to saved on MHT format. <br />

  • HT1368 Why can't I add just one **** song to my wishlist?  Why itunes trying to be greedy and make me buy the whole album.  I don't think so - amazon here I come!

    Want to add just one song to my wishlist not the whole album - please help.  Without using iTunes Radio - using the iTunes Store

    On an iOS device you can only add the whole album, if you only want to add individual songs then you will need to use your computer's iTunes.

  • How do I add a search engine of my own choice (i.e one which is not available among the "Manage Search Engines" add-ons) to the Search Engine Box dropdown?

    I'm running Firefox 6 on Windows XP

    Glad it worked. Thanks for posting back.
    You may note there are some changes coming up with Firefox's searches. In Fx23 whatever you set in the search bar is also used for other searches, so you may get unexpected videos showing up from the address bar.
    Further in the future, probably Fx25 the navigation and search bar are being combined. Then there is talk of a new concept of search tabs.
    Computer technology always changes. Moore's law gives ever more computing power but someone always finds a new feature or facility that becomes a must have essential and eats up all the power.

    Hi,
    The Reset Firefox feature can fix many issues by restoring Firefox to its factory default state while saving your essential information.
    Note: ''This will cause you to lose any Extensions, Open websites, and some Preferences.''
    To Reset Firefox do the following:
    #Go to Firefox > Help > Troubleshooting Information.
    #Click the "Reset Firefox" button.
    #Firefox will close and reset. After Firefox is done, it will show a window with the information that is imported. Click Finish.
    #Firefox will open with all factory defaults applied.
    Further information can be found in the [[Reset Firefox – easily fix most problems]] article.

  • Is it possible to add action to JLable component?

    Is it possible to add action to JLable component?

    I assume you are talking about an ActionListener? In which case the answer is no. But, you can add a MouseListener, MouseMotionListener, KeyListener and a few other ones as well. There's nothing an ActionListener can do that a well used MouseListener can't.

  • Is it possible to add a "prior" year after the application is deployed?

    Hi expert,
    We have created and deployed a HP application (EPMA, version 11.1.2.1), but find out that we need to add another year before the first year we have right now, e.g. currently we set the "start year" as FY10 and find out that we need to add FY09 to the application. Is it possible to do? Please kindly help!
    Thanks!

    Without hacking which is not supported and not advisable then the answer if no, the cleanest way is to export everything out with LCM, recreate the planning app, import.
    Cheers
