Is there a major resource (memory) conflict between AdBlock addon and Peerblock?

Sorry this is so long. I just downloaded FF 3.6.3 for Windows last night and added the NoScripts and Adblock addons while concurrently running Peerblock. Within a few minutes my entire system went haywire, more precisely a complete system failure. I/O, CMOS, IDEport2, ACPI, everything went haywire. The mouse and the cursor became unusable, it was as though someone was mashing on buttons or clicking repeatedly. When I tried to open FF again it literally opened more than a hundred terminals. Right click completely failed because it immediately closed. I couldn't use any programs or type anything anywhere on my system. This behavior persisted even when I booted into BackTrack 4 and even under BIOS. The entire system literally became unusable. Then I wasn't able to even make it past the splash screen in most instances. During boot this was accompanied by constant beeps. I was able to gather some information, but not much before the complete insanity. I did see in FF something about a corrupted module. Peerblock also generated an error report indicating I/O errors but because of the nature of this problem I wasn't able to really view or record either one. There were tons of ACPI and other errors in EventViewer under Windows while all this was occurring. More errors than I had ever seen before. Finally my system wouldn't even boot unless I left it alone for some time. I also noticed excessive heat. Finally Windows prompted me, after removing and reseating the RAM, to the repair console. It found zero errors, absolutely nothing, generating 0x0 errors for everything. but did indicate that it located the root source of the problem. When it started up both FF and Peerblock had been removed. Everything else was fine. I'm using the system now without a single problem. I've been using Peerblock for more than six mos. without any issues. FF runs beautifully under BackTrack 4. It appears to me this was a memory conflict of some nature that corrupted the CMOS or some other memory modules, but I'm not that savvy. I would like to continue using both these programs with Windows but if it's not possible; it's not possible. I'm not crazy and won't be installing and using both these programs together again. This was the most serious problem I've ever encountered, worse than any virus. Also, let me assure you this was not a virus. Since I've gotten back on my system I've run three different AV engines. I am willing to try FF, with AdBlock of course, again and update how it goes. I may even try the alpha5. I know your busy, but please help if you can. Any feedback or help would be greatly appreciated. I will continue to support the Mozilla community regardless of this issue.
-Regards
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== As soon as I used FF for windows.

I have a new computer and have had problems with just about everything there is to have problems with. I chose FireFox over IE because I just plain like it better. I am at a loss as to what to do with the Error Console. It is full of errors, and I am afraid to use my computer because it may crash. I had to remove my MicroTrend Security System because of all the problems with downloads. I really have never seen any such disgusting things before from a computer. Perhaps I downloaded too many addons. But isn't that what they are for? If not, why not make a simple product with no add-ons that will work efficiently. I know I would buy one. This is a beautiful computer with a huge screen that can also be a TV, but what is the use if the Browsers are all fighting with one another and cannot get along. Worse than our World. Lets get all get along and try to get what everyone would like. We are not all NERDS, although I wish I were right at this moment. I wish some wonderful nerd would email me and take over my computer and take out what I don't need and add in what I do. There is a terrific idea for some brilliant NERD.
I am desperate here in New York State, USA and need help NOW.
Thanks to all. I hope Firefox will send us out a Great Big Power Patch to fix all the ills of 3.6.3. I thought this might be the one. It surely sounded great. Thanks, Elizabeth

  • How can i troubleshoot a "software conflict between a device and something in my original user account"

    hi
    my canon video camera (HV20) wasnt being recognised by iMovie (error message...in system report was "Unable to list FireWire devices".)
    in researching a solution i came across some firewire advice in http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1151#trouble which suggests there may be a "software conflict between the device and something in your original user account."
    i changed to another account on my iMac and my camera connected immediately.
    is anybody able to explain how i go about fixing this "software conflict".
    many thanks

    With the Mail.app quit and using the Finder, go to Home > Library > Mail > Mailboxes > Outbox.mbox.
    The Outbox.mbox represents "Out" in the mailboxes drawer and is shared by all accounts.
    Delete the Outbox.mbox and empty the Trash.
    Launch Mail and a new Outbox.mbox will be created automatically by Mail within the Mailboxes folder and this should resolve the problem.

  • Conflict Between Bluetooth Mouse and WIFI?

    I Bought the new MBPR X72 and a Iogitech Bluetooth Mouse.When i download something by Wifi,My mouse can't work well.I search the answer on Google,some people said that there is a conflict between Bluetooth mouse and Wifi.Because they are both use the 2.4G HZ.So anyone can help me ??

    If you are on your home network, you could set the router and MBPr to use only the 5 GHz band if you are using the n-protocol WiFi.  That would mean logging intothe router and changing band usage settings.  The MBPr would follow what it sees as the wireless signal.

  • Version conflicts between host labview and RT engine

    there is problem that i cannt switch target to feild point. It said that "version conflicts between host labview and RT engine" . But my labview is version 7.0 and the real time module is version 7.0 too. Anyone can give me hand? Thanks

    Depending on your version of MAX, you should be able to change the version on the FP (in remote systems). If you can't do it in 3.0, try upgrading to 3.1 (you will have to search for it on the site). If that doesn't work, you can try resetting to factory default and then see if you can do this.
    Another tip, which for some reason seems to help, is updating the OS\Run-Time Engine when windows is in safe mode.
    Try these and see if they help.
    BTW, as a tip for next time, you're more likely to get a good answer for something like this if you post in the FieldPoint board.
    Try to take over the world!

  • Is there any character set translation facility between the database and th

    We are upgrading a character based SQLforms version 3 application to forms6i running over the web against a 9.02 database.
    Is there any character set translation facility between the database and the Forms server / web browser?
    Our database character set is NEE..P4 (North European). However, the user needs to see the data in the BLT..P13 (Baltic) character set.
    In the old application, users accessed these forms through a telnet client and this did the translation. For example :
    The database character :
    � (Unicode hex value = 00D0)
    would be translated by and displayed on the telnet client as :
    � (Unicode hex value = 0160)
    A colleague of mine has done some experimenting. By changing the NLS_LANG registry setting to BLT..P13 in his oracle home and loading the Baltic character set for his Windows 2000 environment, he has been able to achieve the same translation in SQLPLUS.
    However, we have been unable to do the same in a forms web runtime.

    Oracle automatically translates characters between the display CharacterSet and the database characterset
    The statement
    In the old application, users accessed these forms through a telnet client and this did the translation
    worries me a little because it implies that the data you have stored in the database might not actually encode the characters that you think you've put in.
    This aside you need to set you NLS_LANG parameter on the application server for the client side character set - if you are using the forms listener servlet architecture then this would be set in the default.env file.

  • Is there a conflict between Reader XI and Acrobat being used on the same computer?

    I downloaded the new Abode Reader XI. The computer in question has, also, Adobe Acrobat 7. Is there a conflict between them if used on the same computer? I can not open any PDFs and now the saved PDFs I had on the computer will not open and the icon shown on the desktop is gone. Please advise as I scan documents to this computer all the time and the person who needs to see them can not.

    I have Acrobat 8.1.6 and Reader XI on Win XP. Do these conflict? Should I get rid of the newer Reader?
    I'm having problems printing to the PDF print driver, locks up system, shows printer offline in spooler. I doubt problem is with driver itself because I can print a Test Page from it ok. But printing to Adobe PDF from Word & other apps locks up & never completes.
    There's an Exclamation Point next to Acrotray in Explorer. (see image)  What does this mean??
    Have tried Repair install of Acrobat twice.

  • Are there any known conflicts between Mountain Lion and Microsoft Outlook for Mac? After installing, I can't send or receive eMails

    Are there any known conflicts between Mountain Lion (10.8.3) and Microsoft Outlook for Mac? After installing, I can't send or receive eMails. Using a Macbook Pro.

    Is this a recent problem or has it been going on for some time.  If you just updated to ML, you might want to confirm that you've update to the latest MS Office / Outlook patches.

  • Conflict between iTunes Match and Windows 8.1

    I have been running iTunes on my fully updated Windows 8.1 PC for some time, without any particular issues. A few days ago, I activated iTunes match. It worked just fine, in the perspective of my iPhone and iPad. However, my PC stopped being responsive: Long time-outs on just about anything, and dialog windows refusing to appear (one of them being the McAfee console ....). A virus search using Microsoft's emergency services showed nothing.
    The moment I de-activated iTunes match, everyhing reverted to normal.
    My conclusion is, there is a major conflict between whatever the iTunes match service does, and the Windows 8.1 operating system.
    Any idea what this is all about, and if there is anything I can do about it (except avoiding using the match functionality)?
    I have the latest update of iTunes for PC.

    Hi lars1950,
    Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
    It sounds like you're seeing issues with Windows responding slowly since enabling iTunes Match. The article below may resolve the issue for you, it describes possible conflicts with Layered Service Providers and how to prevent them.

  • Having a conflict between Firefox 4 and Endnote

    After installing Firefox 4, when I tried to open Endnote (and yes I closed the program before installing Firefox 4) I got a message that Endnote was unable to open my library, check to see if anyone else is using it; if the problem persists use the recover library in Endnote. Well, I tried the recover library and it did not work. I did get my library back by moving the library to my desktop, I think all by references are there, however, I lost all my Groups, and the file attachments are all messed up.

    I encounter immediate problems on installing Firefox 5. There were 3 Windows 7 crashes and I could not access Firefox. It was determined that there was a conflict between the anti virus program and the 5 version. There is no download for the older version 4 was not available. After trying several fixes, nothing worked.
    One post indicated that Mozilla was not fixing Firefox 5 and that the fixes were made in Firefox 6 version. Reluctantly, I upgraded to six and , to my amazement, it works again. Nothing ventured, nothing gained!! Hope it works for you.

  • Is there a way to exchange files between an iPhone and a mac?

    Hi there,
    I know the iPhone does not support bluetooth (legally), but is there a way I can share files between the phone and a macbook NOT connected to the internet?
    What I need to do is the following: I use the phone for work (bad choice, I know...) and need to be able to access e-mail and send files out. I am going to be away for a couple of weeks (I am based in the UK and going to Italy) and was thinking to use the phone for e-mailing (megabucks!!!) and the macbook to do some work that will need to be subsequently e-mailed, but as the iPhone does not support (legally at least) bluetooth, is there a way to load files onto the phone? I mean, it doesn't sound like rocket science.
    I have to say, I am overall very disappointed with the iPhone as a tool to work with. Great for games, etc., but not for work. I am really tempted to toss it in the trash (or at least return it where I got it from).
    I hope you can give me some good news here...
    Besides as a general observation, I have been spending HOURS scouring the internet trying to find solutions to some basic issues I have with the iPhone... A piece of kit that is as expensive as all that should not be so difficult to use especially if all I am trying to get what would be considered a common feature in all bog standard phones, but that's another story... At least I have the digital compass and I can check stocks and shares to make me feel better...
    Thanks

    I guess I'm confused then. DocsToGo and AirShare Pro both allow you to set up an adhoc network (direct wifi-based connection between the laptop and your iPhone, no wifi router/cell data connection required). You can then pass the documents back and forth between the two devices. I prefer DocsToGo, because it also allows you to edit/sync the docs back and forth. Is this not what you want to do? You can also email the document from within DocsToGo on the iPhone if desired.
    If you want to upload/download using a service like DropBox (which will also require a data connection, either WiFi or cell-based) DocsToGo can access that cloud-based service.
    Note that I'm NOT affiliated with DocsToGo, but I did read the instructions to find out all the stuff it can do

  • Conflict between Logic Pro and external device error in Logic Pro X./cpu problems

    hi Logic users,
    using a MacBookPro 15 inch Retina, 2,7 GHz intel Core i7, 16 GB Ram, OSX 10,8,5, Logic X 10.0.4.
    i am wondering if you can help me out with the following problem i cant solve:
    when starting logic x with a not too big arrangement, lets say using one third to half of cpu, i open u-he plugin Diva and the cpu is going up on full range and the following error appears: "sample-rate 39299 (number always changes) reconized. Check conflict between logic pro x and external device"
    as external device im running a VirusTi and as audio-device Apogge Duet. when dis-connecting both devices, i have the same problem.
    putting the sample buffer up to the highest rate, doesnt change anything.
    same arrangements on friends computers dont show that problem, so it has to be something wrong in my set up.
    anybody has an idea?
    would be much appreciated for your help,
    thanx-

    Have you used Diva's preset Accuracy system to reduce CPU load?
    accuracy
    Click on the Main button at the bottom of the window. To the right of the Master section are two selectors called Accuracy and OfflineAcc. In the current version of Diva these are global parameters i.e. they remain fixed across all presets, per loaded instance:
    draft........CPU-friendly, but FM will sound rough and resonance is primitive i.e. NOT zero delay! fast......... Fine for older computers and/or when you need more polyphony in acceptable quality great...... The best compromise between quality and polyphony on high-power computers divine..... Top-quality zero delay feedback filters... but can your computer can handle it?
    OfflineAcc only has two options – same or best (i.e. divine in the current version).
    Some host applications may have problems rendering to audio at the selected accuracy, but the
    better ones include an “inform plug-ins of offline rendering status” or similar.
    I typically work in draft mode and then switch to Devine or best when freezing the track or bouncing the entire project...

  • I've lost the majority of the connections between my projects and items in the library (showing up as "missing files"). I've moved nothing. How can I reconnect? The items show up as missing in the library as well as in the "movie".

  • Conflict between python-pyqt4 and python-pyqt5

    Hi!
    When trying to use matplotlib in the Spyder Python IDE I get the following error
    RuntimeError: the PyQt5.QtCore and PyQt4.QtCore modules both wrap the QObject class
    It's obviously a conflict between pyqt4 and pyqt5. However, pyqt4 is a hard dependency of Spyder and pyqt5 is a hard dependency of matplotlib. Outside Spyder, matplotlib works fine.
    Does anybody know how to resolve this conflict? Or is it a packaging issue? Shall I file a bug report? I think a discussion about matplotlib depending on Qt5 had already been going on here.

    Does it work with https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/pyth … tlib-noqt/ ?
    I think it's OK to open a bug report.

  • Is there a way to file share between an iMac and iPad?

    I'm curious as to whether or not you can file share between an iPad and an iMac.  The main reason would be in case my wife or I were working on something on the iMac downstairs, we could "pull it up" on the iPad upstairs without having to sync it with the cable....or perhaps I'm just lazy...

    check out FileBrowser.
    another option may be Dropbox.
