Problem regarding un wanted web site

Hi there, i have a problem with an unwanted website opening every time when i press new tab. The following is the url of the site.
[www.delta-search.com/?affID=119776&babsrc=NT_ss&mntrId=9c9ea7eb00000000000000e04c09885b]
Few days back i've installed a program in the system named torn tv and from there every time i open my browser i see this web site opening. I've un-installed the program but couldn't delete this search engine.
I tried deleting this search engine in the following ways:
1. Deleted from control panel via un-install a program
2. via extension
3. via manage search engine.
But still the problem exists.
Please do help me.

Type about:config in URL and search browser.newtab.url </> and change the value to "about:newtab"
Reset your Search Engine
When you enter a search term in the Firefox location bar and press Enter, Firefox will per default do a "I'm feeling lucky" Google search and redirect you to the first result that matches your search term. This behaviour can be changed by a number of add-ons. If you'd like to restore the previous default behaviour, please follow these steps:
#Enter about:config in the Firefox location bar and press Enter.
#You should see a warning that making changes to the Firefox configuration can be potentially harmful to Firefox's integrity. Click the ''I'll be careful, I promise'' button to continue.
#In the Search box at the top, enter ''keyword'' as the search term. You should see a few remaining items, one of these is ''keyword.URL''. It should be bold.
#Right-click on the keyword.URL setting and select ''Reset'' from the dropdown menu.
Now you're done. Please report back if this fixes your problem. Thanks in advance!
You can find more information about the Location bar search feature in the [[Location bar search]] article.

I had posted the problem previously & accidently marked the problem as solved.
I received the following message since:
"I am not sure how my previous post solved the problem but since then I think I have found the answer.
I simply enabled Shockwave Flash 10.0.32.18
From the Firefox Homepage it is located under:
Tools\Add Ons then select the PlugIns Tab
Select Shockwave Flash then enable it.

This has fixed the problem. Thanks Phil.

Problems deploying VS 2005 Web Site with Crystal Reports

If it's not one assembly reported missing, it's another. Runs fine on my local machine, but can't deploy to a test environment on my company's server. How can I force crystal to install everything on the server that is needed so that my clients (end users) can run this report?
We are not running Crystal RAS.
When I set up my msi, I made sure to set it to take assemblies from my local machine. Yet, my local machine does not seem to contain all of the assemblies that it needs. They're not showing up in the bin anyway.
I am using non-embedded report files (as you can see from my code below) so that I can change reports on the fly, if necessary without recompiling the entire app.
I am using the ReportDocument object.
Error as follows (when run from any desktop) in IE.

Any help with this would be most appreciated. Is there a KB that deals with deploying a VS 2005 WEB SITE with Crystal?
Thank you,
Bob

Okay. So I installed the correct MSMs, opened the deployment document that came with it entitled, "Crystal Reports for .net Framework 2.0 - Deployment using Merge Modules" and got to page 4. At the bottom of page 4. It had me create a new Web Setup Project. The MSMs are included in the project, as they should be.
On page 4, #7, it says "Build the project."
#8 says Run your development setup.
There are 3 panes on my VS interface (4 including the Solution Explorer). To me, they look like they need the information regarding what Web Site this is to deploy.
I don't see any instructions on how to do this. I just blew away my old MSIs that I created because the previous document said not to use them.
So, how do I add my Web Site to these panes?
Thank you for your help with this.
Bob

Problem accessing just one web site. No other site...

I am having problems today connecting to just one website which I use daily.
I get the "internet explorer can not display the webpage" message and the dropdown gives the usual possibilities.
If I put the web address into "isitdownforeveryone or just me" then that reports the site up and running.
I cleared all temp files/cookies, ran a full disk clean and cleaned all in IE that was cleanable. I did the ipconfig /flush DNS command and netstop and net start DNS cache commands and still no joy.
While I kept trying I accidently clicked on the "diagnose problems" on IE failed to display page message and that said something like that "the host server at address 290.xxx.xxx etc had been found but fails to respond when pinged" and that resetting the network can fix problems. I then reset the BT Home Hub and low and behold I had instant access to the problem site. That was OK for the rest of the time the PC was on.
This evening it has done exactly the same (just this one particular site down) and yet resetting the router has again fixed the issue.
Why is this happening all of a sudden and why just seemingly one site affected ? Is it something I should contact BT over ?
I run Vista and IE9.
thanks

Thanks for all the replies folks...
I haven't tried another browser (I like IE and didn't want to install something I don't really want) but I could do to aid trobleshooting if needed (I use Acronis so can roll back).
Anyhow after all the trouble yesterday I unplugged the HH rather than doing a "soft" reset via the button. The site that was problematic is at the moment OK.
If a site is unobtainable for whatever reason why does a reset of the HH "find" a path to the site only for it to fail again.
I see others have had similar issues although Bing.com is one I do use and that has been fine for me.
Whether this is related or not I have no idea but after all the resetting of the HH i thought I would just try Speedtest.net to make sure my line profile hadn't suffered. The "ping" value was a little higher than normal but what was was odd was that the server automatically chosen to run the test was at the other end of the country rather than more local ones.

Firefox has problems with 2 TV WEB sites in Jackson MS area.

With WLBT, attempting to load Home page gets a grayed out mask over the page with "error," then option to stop page from loading other data. There are other problems with the site trying to bring up a their interactive weather map. With WAPT, Firefox can't load their live radar. IE is OK.

That is what I am currently doing. My question is why are Home Sharing and AirPlay not working and how do I fix that? And is there a way for me to connect the Apple TV via Ethernet? There are some other Apple TVs that show up on the Ethernet network and I got mine to connect momentarily when I manually gave it my computers IP address but it stopped working quickly after that.

How fix lost dialog box for typing in wanted web site url after installing security update 20110811165603 into Mac OS 10.6 snow leopard today 6.04.2011.

Today, was prompted to install new security update. Did so. Now when click on + to open new tab the words New Tab appear in the tab. But, no dialog boxes appear to type in wanted new URL and no google dialog box appears in the tab area.
Every thing was fine before installed this new security update 20110811165603 into Mac OS 10.6 snow leopard computer.

Thanks for your reply and sorry for the delayed response - have been away for a few days over the holidays.
I understand your point about backups and disk permissions. I do have a back up copy and will adopt using the 'verify disk' step in future; so, for me the loss shouldn't amount to any more than the time I have spent, as frustrating as that is. However, I think the point I'd like to make is that doing a disk permissions check is fine for those like me [or others on this forum] since I work in a hi-tech industry, and have worked in a Unix/Linux environment for the last ~20 years so understand about permissions etc. , but I know people with Macs for whom the key advantage is that the they largely 'manage themselves' seamlessly. So, if the verify step is simply a pushbutton check-then-repair step and omitting it can lead to such fatal errors, then why can't it be built into the update script as the first automatic step ? What I mean is; my computer reached this unusable state simply by pressing 'ok' on a planned update, so to the average-Joe user it looks like a 'stop and catch fire mode'.
For info: I have now used Disk Warrior, which is reporting a disk malfunction, but can recover the user data. It seems to be a remarkable coincidence though, because there were no system problems exhibited before the update.

What problem do the yahoo web site have from opening?

what should be done for the yahoo website to be open?

'''Clear cookies + Cache'''
1. Hit Ctrl+ Shift + delete on your keyboard or go to Tools| Clear recent history

3. If it isn't selected already, set Firefox to clear '''Cookies and Cache''' . If you do not see this option, click on the arrow located next to Details
4. Click '''Clear Now'''

One of your add-ons might be the culprit. Try running Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] with all add-ons disabled. If that solves the problem, see [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] and possibly [[Troubleshooting plugins]]

Can't access online backup and sharing web site

Does anyone know how to access the Online Backup and Sharing web site from a computer that does not have the O/B/S software installed? I used to be able to go to My Verizon/My Services/Internet and hit "Launch" for O/B/S, and the link would go directly to the web site for uploading or downloading material. Now, that link takes me to a Verizon page that asks to activate the O/B/S service, and wants to download the software. My O/B/S service was activated years ago and has worked until recently without the software installed. There is no other obvious way to get to the O/B/S web site. (If it matters, I tried this in both IE 9, with Windows 7 64-bit, and Safari.)
After some effort, I got the help number for the outside vendor that runs the O/B/S service. They say that the Verizon web site should link directly to their O/B/S web site, regardless of whether or not the O/B/S software is installed locally, but that the failure to do so is entirely an error of Verizon's on the Verizon web site and they have nothing to do with it. They also said there is no way to bypass the Verizon web site to get to a Verizon O/B/S account on their web site. They said they have received many complaints about this from Verizon O/B/S customers, and that the same problem has even arisen when the O/B/S software is installed on the local computer.
So does anyone know if it is really necessary to install the O/B/S software on any computer used to access O/B/S, and if it is now impossible to access the material from any other computer? That would be a major reduction in the usefulness of the service that was not announced anywhere that I know of. I saw a strong of comments on this issue in the Forums from a few years ago, but the conclusion was that the problem had been fixed. It seems to have arisen again.

Anthony, I tried to private message you several times, but I kept getting an error message stating that my message had invalid HTML that was being removed, and to resend. It did not actually have any HTML, and hitting the resend button just led to the same message.
Also, since my last post, I downloaded the OBS software onto my computer. This gave me access to OBS from that computer. However, even after doing this, I cannot use the old method of directly getting to the OBS web site from My Verizon. The link from "Launch" does not work either on the computer with the OBS software or on any other computer. Rather, the link goes only to the Verizon page saying that my OBS service has not been activated (which it surely has been) and asking to download the OBS software.
If this is happening to everyone and not just to me, this means that material stored on OBS is only available from a computer that has the OBS software downloaded on it. That is certainly not supposed to be the case, and it would make OBS much less useful.
Again, the OBS technical people said that this was a problem that they knew about, but it was entirely a problem with the Verizon web site that they could not do anything about.

Can't save pdf from a web site - HELP!

I can't seem to save pdf files from a brokerage account. I have Reader 9, and one one PC, there is no "save icon" on the tool bar, and no "wording tool bar" -ie, no headong of: File - Edit - View, etc. On the other , there is no edit portion of the tool bar.
On the one PC that displays the picture of the floppy disc - the "save icon"- when I click on it, nothing happens. I think i have a problem with the security settings, but can't figure it out. the financial advisor company can save it just fine, so i think the problem is in my PCs.
There is a security section that says the contents of the pdf can be copied, butdoesn't work not in the file copy mode. (These are not "fill out the form" pdfs, just regular files posted to a web site to allow viewing, downloading, printing, etc. i could print, but want to save electronically instead.
Any ideas?

I have also had this problem with some different web sites - you mention that possibly it is a security issue so I added the web site I was having this problem with to my "Trusted Sites" list and re-tried saving the PDF and it worked! Don't know if this will solve your problem, but it did work for me (still don't understand why some sites work and others require an entry in the "Trusted Sites" list. I'm running Windows 7 (32 bit) and my Adobe version is 9.4.2 and I'm using Internet Explorer 8. Hope this solution works for you.

Trouble loading my web site

I've been using iWeb for weeks and had no problems sending up my web site. However, I have just moved to a new school in Alaska. I want to update my blog and I can't seem to do that. There's a page coming up asking if I am already a member or if I want to join. Well, I sign in - and then that page just disappears. nothing happens. I really want to update my blog. ON the way up here we had no trouble on various open network updating the page - just uploaded automatically. I'm stumped.

Try publishing your website from a different source. I had trouble publishing from iWeb at my university because they used a proxy server. Apparently iWeb uses a non-standard html (I learned this from our IT administrator). She added this language to the list of languages accepted by the proxy server and then I was able to publish. Also, your university may have certain web filters. This could also cause a problem.

Creation of a simple web site --- how to get started?

First, I have recently purchased CS5, which is a very nice bundle of fantastic software. However, the thought of mastering all of these packages is mind-boggling. I started by jumping around between different packages, looking at tutorial material, examples, etc. which was quite helpful for getting an overview of how some of them worked and how I might use them. Presently, I have two main objectives --- 1) use Photoshop for doing some painting of images, and 2) use Dreamweaver to build a web site for a friend who offers a place of refuge for homeless cats. I initially thought it might be good to start with the painting project, however, I have changed my plan, and would like to pursue the design of a web page that can be used to help people to find a cat that they can adopt. Note, this is a non-profit application, but one that I believe to be quite important. Here are some of my initial thoughts on this site:
Site purpose:
To provide a web site for anyone to look at information on cats at this home, and how they
can adopt one of them.
Some features of the site:
1. A cat database that I as the designer would create. This database would contain
    an entry for each cat available for adoption. It would include such things as
    the name, sex, age, paths to image(s) and/or video(s) of the cat, health status, etc.
    Anyone accessing this site should be able to easily navigate around it and to examine
    entries in this database. The client (designated person at the home offering cats
    for adoption) would be given privledges to modify the database (add, delete, and modify
    entries). The user interface for the client to update the database should be very easy
    to use.
2. A simple form that could be used for information on someone that would like to adopt
    one of the cats in the database or to make an appointment to go to the location where
    the cat is being kept (for actual contact with the cat).
3. Track number of visitors to the site
Preliminary notes on the database
Fields:
- ID code (key) % Default: yymmddhrmnName (year-month-day-hr-min-Name)
- Name
- Sex (M / F)
- Neutered / Not neutered
- Age (estimated)
- Type (breed)
- Tagged (chip or ear marking)/ Not tagged
- Checked In date (yy/mm/dd)
- Checked Out date (yy/mm/dd)
- Status (needs home / has home)
- Social state (1,2,3,4,5)
- Health state (1,2,3,4,5)
- Companion state (1,2,3,4,5)
- Image (file name) % multiple files allowed
- Video (file name) % multiple files allowed
- Medical/vet data (e.g. vaccinations, etc.)
- General information (text on cat that includes comments, observations, etc.)
Notes:
* state = 1, Best
                5, Worst
Examples:
          Social state = 5, very unfriendly, afraid, etc.
                               3, can touch if careful
                               1, very friendly, unafraid
          Health state = 5, not in good health (e.g. infection)
                               3, only minor health problems
                               1, in very good health
   Companion state = 5, must have another cat or cats as company
                               3, could be with other cat(s) company
                               1, does not need the company of another cat
Now, with this initial information (granted this is very rough), my question:
How, armed with CS5, should I attack the problem of getting this web site up and running?
Keeping in mind that I really would like to learn how to use CS5, and that this would be my first web site project.
Any suggestions, study plan, references, etc. would be welcomed.
Message was edited by: Birdy40 because of some small errors and changes.

In keeping with bregent's admonition - it will invariably turn out more complicated than you imagined, if only because the more you do with this the more you will think of to do. In addition to the excellent suggestions of David Power's books and w3schools, I would offer one other bit of advice: Simplify. Make your initial project the simplest possible, and then gradually adding more and more features. That will make it easier for you - and this forum - to help along the way.
Perhaps as a first step, create a database with a few entries and then write code to retrieve the data.Even there you may find fields will need to be adjusted, added or removed or even redefined. Try all sorts of queries. Eventually you can create pages that will allow the input to be done with a form.
Good luck with the project./

Firefox continuously brings up errors while trying to load web sites.

Over the past few months I have been having problems with Firefox loading web sites. I get the error of either the connection timed out or server took too long to respond, etc, etc. I have done all the troubleshooting tips like emptying cookies, deleting history and I even started Firefox with all plugins and add on disabled and still the same thing. I did the update for the plugins and all that and still no luck. I even uninstalled Firefox and reinstalled Firefox. I checked to make sure it wasn't my system and I even disabled all addons, plugins, and anti virus software and still no luck. The same thing happens even in private browsing mode. This has been happening ever since the last Firefox update. I can't connect to eBay, Dell, and some others even after putting those sites on the safe lists in my firewall and everything. I have no problems with other browsers. And every once in a while if I click "Retry" the page will load fine. And when the "Retry" button doesn't work, I right click and choose reload which works from time to time. Opening up the error console under "Web Developer" option and select the errors tab, it lists nothing but a bunch of Java exception errors and wrong css coding for the sites.
So what is going on?

Do you have that problem when running in the Firefox SafeMode?
