My tabs are being hijacked. Under page info shows: chrome://msdsd/content/newtab/newtab.html

Hello,
I searched online to try and find out what above hijack item is & how it can take over on any
page I tab. (I fixed my home page, and removed a toolbar line it also created).
I went into all the Firefox options, and check control panel add/remove programs to veryify there was no entry relating to Google, or Chrome or MSDSD.
Searched the web, There is no www.msdsd.com website, either. I have no idea where the hooks for this item are on my machine. If it is a program, I would delete it. If it is a setting I would change it.
Even attempted to block chrome:// on my firewall. Wish I could tell you how this got on my machine in the first place... Not having any luck getting a handle on this. Any ideas as to how to kill this items or where it originated from?

I tried following the other posts here, maybe I’m just dense! Here is the step by step way I got rid of the chrome hijack!
Go to: Tools -> Add-ons -> Extensions
Disable “MySearchDial” and test that that cleared up your problem.
IF not for some reason, re-enable it, but I don’t think this will be the case.
If it does clean up the problem, remove the unwanted extension.

  • None of the cross tabs are being exported to Excel

    Hi All,
    I am experiencing a strange problem of export failing when any of the cross tab is exported. It comes out with a message,
    "An error occurred while trying to export the Worksheet.
    (Export failed.) "
    This is occuring in Plus and Viewer.
    But All the tables are being exported without any problem.
    Any Idea ???
    Thanks

    Only iTunes purchases may copy over via File > Transfer Purchases - otherwise syncing is one way, from the computer to the device. To get the rest of your music/films etc onto the new computer you can copy the backup from your old computer onto the new one and then load them into iTunes

  • CfLayout tabs are being truncated in IE 9

    After installing IE 9 I've noticed that my cflayout tabs are now being truncated.  They look file in IE 8, FF and Chrome, but in 9 some of the tabs are truncated (exampl...).  Has anyone else had this problem or come across a solution for this?
    Please no IE bashing, my app has to work for all major browsers =/

    Fixed.  Hold ctrl + MouseWheelDown.  IE was zoomed in...  >.<

  • My browsing sessions are being hijacked as Firefox opens some pages. Started when updated to v20.

    Open pages spontaneously change to random advertising sites. happens a lot to yahoo home page. does not appear to happen in IE10 or chrome. also there is a pop-up box showing up at the bottom of some pages asking if I want to go to some ad on the page.

    Sounds suspicious. You may want to run some supplemental security scans. These two tools are highly regarded:
    Malwarebytes Anti-malware : http://www.malwarebytes.org/products/malwarebytes_free
    SUPERAntiSpyware : http://www.superantispyware.com/
    Meanwhile, within Firefox, disable ALL newer, nonessential, and unrecognized extensions here:
    orange Firefox button (or Tools menu) > Add-ons > Extensions category
    Any change?

  • When I click for a new tab this window now opens ... "chrome://nspdlmsd/content/newtab/newtab.html" - I want it to go back to being a blank page.

    As above.
    For the past few days now, whenever I click 'open new tab' in firefox it opens immediately at the url posted above. I did, unsuspectingly which is how they get you if you are not careful, installed MySearchDial but removed it completely through add/remove and start/search. I even have new windows opening up with content I do not like at all ... my home page is the same again, but I cannot seem to figure out how to get my new tab to open in a blank page again (btw at the bottom of this 'chrome' page there is an mysearch.com icon - I have googled 'how to remove this' with no success).
    I do not use Chrome and do not have it listed as one of the operating programs on my computer. However, when I start/search "chrome" there is a complete list of files and folders that are found and I am unsure if I should delete them all since many of them appear to be directly associated with Firefox. Please - this is frustrating ... what can I do to get rid of this garbage on my computer?

    The "MySearchDial" app needs to be removed in 4 places.
    1) Go to "add / remove programs" in your windows control panel select mysearchdial and remove it.
    2) Open your Firefox browser then click the Firefox tab at the top left and select options. You will need to change the start page settings back to your preferred start page.
    3) Again under the Firefox tab select "add-ons". In the add-ons manager you will need to remove mysearchdial from both "plugins" and "extensions"
    4) In your search bar (top right of address bar" use the drop down menu and select "manage search engines". You can restore your preferred search engine and remove mysearchdial from the menu.
    This should remove all the components of the nuisance hijacker and restore your browser back to your preferred settings. If you are comfortable with a more in depth removal I would also suggest going to your "programs" folder within the "C" drive of your machine and deleting the "MySearchDial" folder altogether. However, only do this AFTER you have uninstalled it from your system and if you are familiar with this type of removal.

  • On tab pages, where tabs are children of home page ... how2insert rows?

    We show the key on the parent tab ... we navigate to child tabs, and proper child rows are all there.
    We click insert and it seems to allow entry. We click Submit, we get error that the parent key field is blank, so can't do insert.
    So ... how to make that parent key persist on each child tab?
    The tabs know the key is there, because they successfully show the children, and only the children. And when you click on a different parent on the row listing of the main home page, then go to child, only that new row's children show up (my intern did the links, I can't speak for precisely how he did this, but we're talking meat and potatoes, not wizardry).
    Any records entered on a child tab should be a child of the clicked home parent, and no other record (one must start with parent before going to child) ...
    Is there a way to get the parent key to persist?
    (child tabs typically have two columns making up the primary key, the parent key (as a foreign key) and something unique to that tab ... e.g., line number, or xref code, or id_link ... these tables / keys all work just fine at the SQLplus level and via Oracle Forms, so data model per se is fine.)
    Any / all clues / info / links to docs will be met with much gratitude.
    Suzanne

    Suzanne:
    It would make it easier for your problem to be understood/resolved if you could create a example of the issue you are encountering at the OTN APEX site.
    Given the information you have provided, and assuming that the 'DML' for child records is handled by the standard APEX Automatic DML processing page process, I'd suggest you take a look at the definition of this process and determine how the PK for the child record is obtained.

  • When starting maximized, tabs are cut off on top and show properly only upon restore/maximize

    When starting FF4 RC1 maximized, tabs ("tabs on top" mode) are cut off on top. To restore their normal display, you restore and maximize the window again.

    After a bit of searching: solved by disabling TooManyTabs 1.3.2 extension.

  • Why are photos that are placed on the page not showing up in links panel?

    seems really random, I have 2 files that have several photos on them, but one photo on each is not showing in the links panel

    not sure, just checking on errors from other co-workers, but I tried copying and
    pasting from Quark and got the same result, so that is probably what they did.
    thanks

  • Within Music Library can anyone please explain why when I select the option to sort 'Album by Artist' a number of tracks are being treated as separate albums?  How can I correct this?  I have tried to 'drag and drop' but that doesn't work.

    Within music Library can anyone please explain why after I select the option to sort 'Album by Artist' a number of tracks are being treated as separate albums?  How can I fix this?  I have tried to manually correct by 'drag and drop' individual tracks but that doesn't work.  My music library includes a number of repeat album artwork images simply because not all tracks are being listed under the one album making my library more difficult to use than it should.  Any advise would be appreciated.

  • 'Page Info' doesn't support HTML5 'meta charset' tag?

    Admittedly this isn't a catastrophic problem, but it seems that the Firefox 'Page Info - General' dialog does not support HTML5's '<meta charset="UTF-8">' tag - the dialog displays an empty line in my Firefox 21.0 browser.
    If the meta charset tag is changed to the pre-HTML5 version of '<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8"> the Page Info dialog displays the 'Content-type' information.
    Other posts I've seen suggest that Firefox's HTML5 support has been frozen except for new HTML5 standards that may be added as they are finalised.
    Does that mean that this omission is going to be left unfixed?

    Looks as though someone started working on this in 2010, but interest (?) petered out?

  • Quantity tab is non-editable under ITEM VIEW screen in SRM- MDM Catalogue

    HI,
    Implementation of  SRM MDM Catalogue 2.0 SP04 (5.5.64.82) .Need inputs on  SRM MDM Catalogue>shooping cart view >ITEM DETAIL screen
    Following two tabs  "Add to Shopping Cart" or "Add to Shopping List"  are not working under "Item View" screen when user trying to add items  by using these two tabs. Some  "java.lang.NullPointerException" error is populating when user clicks on any of these two tabs. Detailed screen shot attached for your understanding
    Also, "Quantity" tab is disabled  and seen as non editable field  - (which is greyed out) - we can not place any value into it.
    But the "Add to Shopping Cart" or "Add to Shopping List" tabs are working fine under other  screens  views like  "context view" & "List view" .
    Seems like it is a product Bug
    Need your valuable inputs at earliest as our go-live date is approaching very near
    Thanks & Rgds/Pawan
