Error click (GIF Images, 1x1 pixels)

When I am surfing and clicking in Google (especially their pay click sites) I am often getting a blank white screen with "click (GIF Images, 1x1 pixels)" at the bar. What is up and how do I fix this. This makes me crazy.

By the way it happens every where, not just Google, I am just in Google mostly...

When opening several different websites (but not all), it says "landing (GIF Image, 1x1 pixels) on the tab and it won't load the website. I recently installed Kaspersky & also updated to newest Firefox.

I recently installed Kaspersky & also updated to newest Firefox. This doesn't happen on the other computers I loaded Kaspersky on. I am on Windows Vista with this computer (the others have XP or 7)

But I can't... find... it... It's not there.
Unless you're talking about the entire Mozilla Firefox folder (which isn't what the thing you copied says,) there is no installation folder.

When i click on certain websites i get this error (GIF IMAGE,1X1 PIXELS)

when i link on various websites this is the error i get (GIF IMAGE,1X1 PIXELS)

If I try and follow a link from another website to open another I get awclick.php (GIF Image 1x1) pixels in a new tab instead of the web page I want.

I was trying to open a website as a link from another website and I get a new tab that says
awclick.php(GIF Image 1x1 pixels)
I can open the website without clicking on a link to it by just typing in the address but as this is a cash back site I am linking from it doesn't help!

You're welcome

How do I stop getting aclk (GIF image,1x1 pixels) when selecting some pages

How do I stop getting aclk (GIF image,1x1 pixels) when selecting some pages
== This happened ==
Not sure how often
== opening some pages

It is Kaspersky that is doing that. It intercepts the content and passes that image to Firefox instead of the real content. You should complain on the Kaspersky forum about this if you disagree with the decision made by Kaspersky to send such an image in this case.
You can look at Adblock Plus instead.
* Adblock Plus: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/adblock-plus/
You need to subscribe to a Filter list (e.g. the EasyList).

I google a topic, then select one. New tab reads something like "search.asp (GIF Image, 1x1 pixels), page is blank. Usually can enter web address to get webpage, not always. What does"GIF Image" message mean? How can I get the tabs to open normally?

Have Firefox 3.6.17 on Windows 7, although right now when I look under Help it says Downloading Firefox 3.6.17 and there's an "in progress" circle.

Thank you, jscher2000, for posting this answer to my question, and I'm sorry I've taken so long to reply.
Yes, it was my security software. I found out that .GIF files are very commonly used for internet graphics, particularly animations and ads. I use Kaspersky Internet Security. I had the anti-banner setting enabled, which stopped the display of .GIF files. I'd rather not see all the ads, but I've found I can very easily disable the anti-banner setting to view a particular page and then enable it again to avoid the ads when I read the news. There aren't that many pages that are entirely made up on .GIF files.
Again, thanks muchly!

When browsing a new library that I created, the browser shows dotted lines around grey rectangles, no images. When I double click on a rectangle the image appears. How do I get images to appear in the browser rectangles?

When browsing a new library that I created and exported onto an external hard drive, the browser shows dotted lines around grey rectangles, no images. When I double click on a rectangle, the image appears, but all the other rectangles remain empty - no image. How do I get images to appear in the browser rectangles? I am viewing this on a second computer (an older intel duo iMac), not the one I created the library on (a MacBook Pro). Both computers have Aperture 3.2.4 installed. When I return the external to the MacBook, all images appear in browser rectangles. What's happening on the iMac?

You may have a problem with the permissions on your external volume. Probably you are not the owner of your library on the second mac.
If you have not already done so, set the "Ignore Ownership on this Volume" flag on your external volume. To do this, select the volume in the Finder and use the Finder command "File > Get Info" (or ⌘I).
In the "Get Info" panel disclose the "Sharing & Permissions" brick, open the padlock, and enable the "Ignore Ownership on this Volume" flag. You will have to authentificate as administrator to do this.
Then run the "Aperture Library First Aid Tools" on this library and repair the permissions. To launch the "First Aid Tools" hold down the ⌥⌘-key combination while you double click your Aperture Library. Select "Repair Permissions" and run the repair; then repeat with "Repair Database". Do this on the omputer where you created the library and where you can see the thumbnails.
Then check, if you now are able to read the library properly on your iMac.

On a website clicking on highlighted text in blue, the browser should take you to info on that subject. My Firefox opens a blank page and says "search history and bookmarks." How can I make it go to the info highlighted in blue text? Ver 3.6.15

Usually the browser will take the user to info pages when a click on blue text is done. My browser just opens a blank page and has "search history and bookmarks and then just sits there. I can change that so it will do nothing and the message is "type a web address". It used to work fine. How can I fix this.

Start 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).
* Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
See:
* [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]]

Whenever I click on an active field in the browser, a new window with advertise opens. I want a solution on this problem.

Whenever I click to start putting details in the active field on browser web page a new window opens with advertise. I have to close this every time.
This happens also when I click on a youtube video link or any active tab.
I am fed-up.. I have stopped all plug-ins and add-ons, installed the browser again... still the problem persists.
Help!

I get an error message every time i try to open google, when I click on it it goes to the site, this just started with the new update

It really annoying

Try re-installing Java. See [[Using the Java plugin with Firefox]]
A quick search for jqsnotify.exe on Google indicates that it is related to the Java quick start option.

Whenever I do a "lookup" from other software, or click on a hyperlink from outside the browser, the browser appears but the URL is not in the address window and the link never loads.why?

I may be reading an article while within Foxfire, and click on a hyperlink in the article...or I may be using Thunderbird email and click on a hyperlink within the email...or I may be using software like Quicken and do a "lookup" to a webpage...no matter, any time I click on the hyperlink, it will switch to Firefox automatically (good!) and the tab shows "loading", but a webpage never loads, and the URL address window never has anything in it. On the other hand, if I copy and paste the URL from whatever hyperlink I'm trying to use, and then paste that into Firefox's URL address window, it will open. How did I lose the auto load feature?

Start 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).
* Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
See:
* [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]]
* [[Troubleshooting plugins]]
If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
* Use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.
* Close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")

When I use Firefox to monitor changes I do to HTML files locally, it does not show changes to images unless I restart the browser. Is this a bug?

I have the local and the remote versions of a page open in two tabs. I change one of the images (keeping the same name in the HTML) and upload the changed image. The tab that shows the remote page only takes a refresh to show the change. The tab showing the local page not. I have tried opening it in a new window but it still does not change. Only if I restart Firefox does it show the change. Why? Is this a bug?

grantheaslip's suggestion doesn't work for me; no change at all. (Thanks anyway.) Any other ideas? Is there another way to "hard" refresh? I don't see anything in the menu.
Also, it seems like this is a very recent problem. I thought in the past that a regular refresh did the job.

Links lead to blank page, title bar says GIF image 1 x 1 pixels

Firstly - I did post this yesterday but it did not appear - my apologies if it comes up twice.
When I click some links from various pages, including Yahoo and Google search results, I get a blank screen with (GIF Image, 1x1 pixels) in the tab, the correct URL is shown in the address bar. It started occasiobally, now happens with all search results and many (but not all) links from one site to another, whether they open in a new tab/window or the same tab.

Pages fail to load and instead show "invis.gif 1x1 pixels"

Leopard 10.5.1, Safari 3.0.4, Mac Book Pro, Airport to Linksys WRT54Gv6 to Cable Modem.
Sometimes, while viewing certain pages, Safari will fail to load the page and instead show "invis.gif 1x1 pixels" in the window title bar. The content area is plain white. Ironically, this is 100% reproducible when trying to reply to a forum post here.
With the Debug menu enabled, Web Inspector shows the following warnings:
* Resource interpreted as document but transferred with MIME type image/gif.
* http://discussions.apple.com/post!reply.jspa?messageID=6033688
* Resource interpreted as image but transfered with MIME type text/html.
* http://discussions.apple.com/favicon.ico
I've seen this failure before while randomly browsing the web, but this is the first URL I've come across that is 100% reproducible. Firefox 2.0.0.11 and Opera 9.24 don't have a problem loading the page on the same computer.
Thoughts?
Kenny

Thanks iBod! I spent an hour at the local Apple Store and walked away with no solution. But the guy did say check the discussions board and I was also running into the following messages in my title bar:
adclick (GIF Image, 1x1 pixels)
click (GIF Image, 1x1 pixels)
(GIF Image, 1x1 pixels)
I had tried a trial version of NetBarrier that came with my Virus Barrier and Personal BackUp and when I deleted the app my problems began. I had no idea it was the culprit because it happened in both Safari and Firefox.
Well after reading your reply...
I went into Preferences and deleted the folder called "Net Barrier" and no more problems.
Thanks again!
Next time I'll check here first!
