This usually happens whenever I right click for a new tab or click a link. The unwanted tab always has the URL http://xn--3!1 -fua0do447bmv6g/#%C5%93%C3%8E%06%E2%80%99Ucr%C2%B7%C3%80 and I am constantly having to close these tabs.

Continously get an alert: "URL is not valid and cannot be loaded."
Every time I open a new page I see this error. Could it be connected to the Google Chrome add-on? I see that add-on the first few times I open a new tab then it disappears and I start getting this error.

I keep getting the alert window that says, "the url is not valid and cannot be loaded"
My computer is "online" but whenever I try to get on a website, the "Alert" box pops up in the middle of my screen saying, "the URL is not valid and cannot be loaded". This is only happening on Mozilla Firefox, I am able to use Internet Explorer without any problems. I do prefer to use Mozilla Firefox as my browser though.

Whenever I click on a link that opens a new tab using "about:tab", an error pops up. The error box is titled "Alert" and the message reads "The URL is not valid and cannot be loaded."
However, once I click OK, the page loads just fine. At first, I thought it might be one of my add-ons (Iuse a bunch), but it still occurs after restarting in Safe Mode. Any thoughts?
I can even create the problem without clicking on a link inside a page if I simply type about:tab in the address bar.
I am using Firefox 12.0Wow! I actually solved this on my own. I didn't find any thread that helped, but after reading a few, I figured poking around in about.config would help... and it did!
Here is how I solved the problem:
# Typed '''about:config''' in address bar.
# When I got to the warning about voiding the warranty, clicked '''I'll be careful, I promise!'''
# I found the setting entitled '''browser.newtabl.url''' (use the '''Search:''' box).
# I double-clicked on the entry entitled '''browser.newtabl.url''' and deleted the info in the value portion.
# Clicked '''OK'''.
# Closed the tab.
# Restarted Firefox and problem was solved. -

Since I downloaded the last Firefox version 3.6 15, no matter where I am, I am back in my homepage and I get the message "The URL is not valid and cannot be loaded", usually I can go back to the site I was in and keep doing whatever I was doing, but often it will happen again.
This is happening in both my computer, laptop and desktop, one has windows XP, the other one has windows 7.
Suggestions? It is becoming a nuisance being moved from the tab I am, and kicked back to the homepage tabStart Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the add-ons is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).

When searching or using previously validated bookmarks I frequently get an error message "url is not valid and cannot be loaded" How do I fix this?
You can modify the pref <b>keyword.URL</b> on the <b>about:config</b> page to use Google's "I'm Feeling Lucky" or Google's "Browse By Name".

Delete a possible user.js file and numbered prefs-##.js files and rename (or delete) the prefs.js file to reset all prefs to the default value including prefs set via user.js and prefs that are no longer supported in the current Firefox release.

I get this message whenever I open firefox or a new tab. Anything I had tabbed to the top has gone, and the original homepage which shows all my recent visits is invalid. The full message is:
The address isn't valid
The URL is not valid and cannot be loaded.
Web addresses are usually written like http://www.example.com/
Make sure that you're using forward slashes (i.e. /).
Try Again.
Help mee!!!Hi fredmcd-hotmail
It's not that I'm typing anything in wrong, it's when I first open Firefox or a new tab. Instead of displaying the firefox page showing my recently viewed websites it's just an invalid URL. Why would I be blocked from this page?
Thanks -
This happens with small sites as well as major ones such as amazon.com. It happens frequently with many different websites both when typing in a URL or clicking on one from search results or other pages. If I am opening it in a new tab, the page is blank and the correct URL shows in the address bar even though it didn't load. When I get the message "The URL is not valid and cannot be loaded" I have to click okay and then click on the link again or click refresh. Sometimes it loads on the 2nd try; other times I have to refresh multiple times to get it to load.
