Pop up 'Firefox Setup Stub 37.0.1 exe' won't go away!
I have recently done a factory reset on my laptop. I have reinstalled Firefox but I keep getting a pop up box 'Firefox Setup Stub 37.0.1 exe' everytime FF opens. I download it, it executes, FF opens and the pop up comes back again. I have uninstalled and tried again but the same thing happens. It's getting really annoying everytime I open the internet and get this darn box! Any suggestions?!
You can check the home page setting to make sure that you do not have a page included that tries to download Firefox:
*Tools > Options > General > Startup: Home page
Firefox supports multiple home pages separated by '|' (pipe) symbols.
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/How+to+set+the+home+page
You can check for problems with the sessionstore.js file in the Firefox profile folder that store session data.
*Help > Troubleshooting Information > Profile Directory: Show Folder (Linux: Open Directory; Mac: Show in Finder)
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Multiple_profile_files_created
Deleting sessionstore.js will cause App Tabs and Tab Groups and open and closed (undo) tabs to get lost and you will have to recreate them (make a note or bookmark them if possible).

Niether Firefox Setup 37.0.1 or Firefox Setup Stub 37.0.1 will install
The update to firefox 37 would not complete so I unstalled the current version I had on my Fully updated Windows 8.1 Pro computer. When I tried to install Firefox Setup Stub 37.0.1 the insaller flashed and went away. When nothing else happened I downloaded Firefox Setup 37.0.1 and ran it. After the extraction process nothing else happened. I just want to get firefox installed again on my machine. Please advise. Thanks!

When I logged into Windows Live Hotmail today, I received a message to upgrade my Firefox browser by installing this programme. I am unable to find out any information about it on the Mozilla website.
I have downloaded to file, but am hesitant about installing it until I know more about it.Your above posted system details show outdated plugin(s) with known security and stability risks.

Last week I was prompted to do an update on my Mac Book Pro which I did. Ever since I did the update a box keeps popping up asking for login info for my keychains & they won't go away. I have no clue what these keychains are & I don't know how to find them & know the passwords for each of them. Plus now I don't get my email on here either. Please help me...
Outside of the contact number for that you've already used I don't know another way of direct contact. Here are some things that they may or may not of had you try that might help you. If you will go to the settings app and pick general on the right-hand side you will see accessibility. Within that you can adjust a text size make the text bowl you can also increase the contrast. You can also adjust the brightness and control panel.
As for Siri again in the settings app under general you should see Siri on the right-hand side with the switch to turn it on. If that is turned on and you're still having issues
Try a Restart.
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red "slide to power off" slider appears, and then slide the slider. Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.
Resetting your settings
You can also try resetting all settings. Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings. You will have to enter all of your device settings again.... All of the settings in the settings app will have to be re-entered. You won't lose any data, but it takes time to enter all of the settings again.
Resetting your device
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Apple recommends this only if you are unable to restart it.
Or if this doesn't work and nobody else on the blog doesn't have a better idea you can contact Apple.
Here is a link to their contacts with most of the information below.

Downloads fine. put onto USB thumb drive and transfer to standalone system (Win 7 Ultra). Go to install and it trys to download something from internet and fails (would since it doesn't have internet access).

Whenever this happens, I have been able to click "deny" and it has gone away. However, when trying to play a game on Facebook, it will not go away and allow me to play the game. How do I get rid of this little message? Looks like I'm being hacked as the message is asking me to allow more storage, thereby gaining access to what's on my computer.
Thank you!hello, please refer to http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/help/settings_manager.html#117152

Hi Martin,
Sorry to hear Firefox isn't downloading.
I'd like to try a different download link with you. Could you follow this instructions and let us know whether they work?
# Go to: https://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/releases/latest/win32/
# Click the relevant link for your locale/language. (British English is en-GB, US English is en-US, etc)
# Click ''Firefox Setup 34.0.5.exe''. This is quite a large file, so might take a few minutes to download. Once it's downloaded, run the file and it should install Firefox.
To explain: the ''Firefox Setup 34.0.5.exe'' file will contain everything you need to install Firefox. ''Firefox Setup Stub 34.0.5.exe'' is the normal installer - it doesn't include all of the Firefox files, but instead will download them after you start the installation. Hopefully if we download the full Firefox installer, it will work.
Cheers,
Jayelbe

The update was attempted automatically, I think. When it would not complete it said download and run the update manually. I did that. Every time I start Firefox the Firefox Setup 6.0.2.exe file is offered up to save.
* see [[firefox has just updated tab shows each time you start Firefox]]
Probably you have accidentally added the new page as an addition to your home pages, or Firefox is having problems with your settings; it may help to close down with the <br/> '''Firefox button -> []Exit'''; rather than just quitting the application. -
Keeps opening Firefox Setup 3.6.8.exe even though it's installed, what do I do to prevent this?
When I'm using the internet the firefox setup 3.6.8.exe keeps popping up asking me if I want to save the file. I tried installing it and it just installed Firefox again, afterwards when I opened up firefox it asked me if I wanted to save the file or not again.
