It sounds like your computer may be infected with some sort of a virus / Malware.
I suggest the following resources:
[[Is my Firefox problem a result of malware |Is my Firefox problem a Result of Malware]] is a Mozilla Support article with some good tips on avoiding and fighting malware.
To double check your system is clean, do the following (Not official Mozilla advice, just good practice from personal experience)
Download and Install MalwareBytes Anti-Malware, run a full Scan. [http://www.malwarebytes.org/ http://www.malwarebytes.org/]
Download and Run TDSSKiller [http://support.kaspersky.com/faq/?qid=208283363 http://support.kaspersky.com/faq/?qid=208283363]
Download and Install Microsoft Security Essentials [http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows/products/security-essentials http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows/products/security-essentials] (not an official endorsement, but I personally recommend MSE as an awesome permanent anti-virus)
Double check for all Windows Updates.
Also, I noticed you have the coupon printer installed. I would go to Start, Control Panel, then programs and features and uninstall the coupon Printer from inside there. It can cause some problems with Firefox.
If you are still having problems with Malware after that, I would recommend either [http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/virus-removal/ http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/virus-removal/], or having your computer cleaned by a professional.

  • When clicking on a button on any website, that opens a new window in Internet Explorer, nothing happens. I have unchecked the " block pop ups" box, but that didn't help.

    This happened for example when clicking on "printable view" on my Roadrunner webmail.

  • I click on just about everything in safari it opens a new tab with an ad on it.

    Hi
    I have an iMac, 2012 model. operating on OS X 10.10.2 and whenever I click on just about everything in safari it opens a new tab with an ad on it.
    sometimes the ads are mackeeper or video hosting sites.
    When I set google as home page, this page keeps opening safari
    http://search-quick.com/?si=85680&channel=DP5332
    I'm wondering weather I downloaded a virus or something...
    how do I get rid of viruses?
    please help, thanks

    Click here and follow the instructions, or if there’s a type of adware not covered by them on the computer, these ones. If you're willing to use a tool to remove it(you don't need to, but may find it easier), you can instead run Adware Medic; this link is a direct download.

  • I have an iMac, 2015 model. operating on OS X 10.10.2 and whenever I click on just about everything in safari it opens a new tab with an ad on it. sometimes the ads are mackeeper or video hosting sites but they are just so annoying.

    There is no need to download anything to solve this problem. You may have installed a variant of the "VSearch" ad-injection malware. Follow Apple Support's instructions to remove it.
    If you have trouble following those instructions, see below.
    Malware is always changing to get around the defenses against it. This procedure works as of now, as far as I know. It may not work in the future. Anyone finding this comment a few days or more after it was posted should look for a more recent discussion, or start a new one.
    The VSearch malware tries to hide itself by varying the names of the files it installs. To remove it, you must first identify the naming pattern.
    Triple-click the line below on this page to select it, then copy the text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination  command-C:
    /Library/LaunchDaemons
    In the Finder, select
              Go ▹ Go to Folder...
    from the menu bar and paste into the box that opens by pressing command-V. You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.
    A folder named "LaunchDaemons" may open. Look inside it for two files with names of the form
              com.something.daemon.plist
    and
               com.something.helper.plist
    Here something is a variable string of characters, which can be different in each case. So far it has always been a string of letters without punctuation, such as "cloud," "dot," "highway," "submarine," or "trusteddownloads." Sometimes it's a meaningless string such as "e8dec5ae7fc75c28" rather than a word. Sometimes the string is "apple," and then you must be especially careful not to delete the wrong files, because many built-in OS X files have similar names.
    If you find these files, leave the LaunchDaemons folder open, and open the following folder in the same way:
    /Library/LaunchAgents
    In this folder, there may be a file named
              com.something.agent.plist
    where the string something is the same as before.
    If you feel confident that you've identified the above files, back up all data, then drag just those three files—nothing else—to the Trash. You may be prompted for your administrator login password. Close the Finder windows and restart the computer.
    Don't delete the "LaunchAgents" or "LaunchDaemons" folder or anything else inside either one.
    The malware is now permanently inactivated, as long as you never reinstall it. You can stop here if you like, or you can remove two remaining components for the sake of completeness.
    Open this folder:
    /Library/Application Support
    If it has a subfolder named just
               something
    where something is the same string you saw before, drag that subfolder to the Trash and close the window.
    Don't delete the "Application Support" folder or anything else inside it.
    Finally, in this folder:
    /System/Library/Frameworks
    there may an item named exactly
                v.framework
    It's actually a folder, though it has a different icon than usual. This item always has the above name; it doesn't vary. Drag it to the Trash and close the window.
    Don't delete the "Frameworks" folder or anything else inside it.
    If you didn't find the files or you're not sure about the identification, post what you found.
    If in doubt, or if you have no backups, change nothing at all.
    The trouble may have started when you downloaded and ran an application called "MPlayerX." That's the name of a legitimate free movie player, but the name is also used fraudulently to distribute VSearch. If there is an item with that name in the Applications folder, delete it, and if you wish, replace it with the genuine article from mplayerx.org.
    This trojan is often found on illegal websites that traffic in pirated content such as movies. If you, or anyone else who uses the computer, visit such sites and follow prompts to install software, you can expect more of the same, and worse, to follow. Never install any software that you downloaded from a bittorrent, or that was downloaded by someone else from an unknown source.
    In the Security & Privacy pane of System Preferences, select the General tab. The radio button marked Anywhere  should not be selected. If it is, click the lock icon to unlock the settings, then select one of the other buttons. After that, don't ignore a warning that you are about to run or install an application from an unknown developer.
    Then, still in System Preferences, open the App Store or Software Update pane and check the box marked
              Install system data files and security updates (OS X 10.10 or later)
    or
              Download updates automatically (OS X 10.9 or earlier)
    if it's not already checked.

  • Using win xp32 firefox 22.0, clicking "new private window" opens a new NON-private window.

    seleecting "new private window" opens a new NON-private window.

    Hello,
    '''Try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. Safe Mode is a troubleshooting mode, which disables most add-ons.
    ''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default theme.)''
    * You can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by holding the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
    * Or open the Help menu and click on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item while Firefox is running.
    ''Once you get the pop-up, just select "'Start in Safe Mode"''
    '''''If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. Please follow the [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] article for that.
    ''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before opening Firefox for normal use again.''
    ''When you figure out what's causing your issues, please let us know. It might help other users who have the same problem.''
    Thank you.

    Just opened a new blank document in Pages (iWork 2009). When I try to type any text, the computer just "dings" at me and types nothing.

    Probably you have opened a blank Layout template which requires a Textbox for you to type into.
    Open a blank Word Processing template instead. The two types are listed in the Sidebar of the Template Chooser.

    hi - i have recently upgraded to an iphone and find that when i open my MS Outlook on my computer, the emails that were on the iphone get wiped out. Has anyone got a solution to this problem? I'm sure it's very simple when you know the answer! Thanks.

    Pay no attention to iinami, the amount of replies to people saying their handsets must have been jailbroken everytime iTunes throws out an error is tremendous. (Clearly you don't need to have any real knowledge to get to level 3 on these forums, let's hope apple's geniuses know a lot more than some of their customers.)
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3694
    Solution below.
    Error 9
    This error occurs when the device unexpectedly loses its USB connection with iTunes. This can occur if the device is manually disconnected during the restore process. This issue can be resolved by performing USB troubleshooting, using a different USB dock-connector cable, trying another USB port, restoring on another computer, or by eliminating conflicts from third-party security software.

  • CO-PA: how to find the cycle when I know the sending cost center?

    Community!
    Is there a possibility to find a specific cycle in CO-PA when I know the sending cost center (something like a search-function which returns a list)?
    I was looking in transaction KEU5 but I don't think that it provides the above mentioned functionality...
    Thanks for your help!!!!
    Bjoern

    Thanks for you help, Ashok,
    but I am afraid it doesn't work. The assessment is for CO-PA, that means the costs will be allocated to products. When I choose the relevant line item here - after the assessment has been fulfilled - I can't see any information about the cycle...
    Any other ideas?
    Thanks,

  • Clicked on any the link searched by using google or yahoo, it opened a new tab on latest update. Why's not direct the link on the same tab like last update?

    When I'm using google, yahoo or ask, or any search engine website. I did any random research used and clicked on any link searched by google, it immediately opened and directed me to the new tab to the link that I just clicked. My question is: Why isn't direct the link that I want to load on the same tab? It didn't happen on the last update. Is this a bug? If it's not then is there any solution? Maybe the setting. I will thanks and appreciate for any help.

    Opening the results in the same tab or in a new tab can be set via the search settings page of the Google and Yahoo! sites.
    For the Google website you can set your preferences on the Google.com page via the gear icon at the top right, click that button to open the menu list and select Search settings.
    * http://www.google.com/preferences?hl=en
    * Results Window: Open search results in a new browser window.
    For Yahoo! on the Yahoo! search page via:
    *http://search.yahoo.com/
    *More > Preferences > Display & Layout > Open results in a new tab or window

  • When I open a new firefox window, and click the + to open a new tab, my first page disappears - I can only seem to return to it by closing all the other tabs.

    The issue occurs like this:
    1. Open a new window
    2. Enter a URL and go to a page (any page).
    3. Click the + and open a new tab.
    4. The first tab is no longer visible in the tabs bar.
    5. I keep opening lots of other tabs and the first tab stays invisible (all the others stay visible / accessible).
    6. The only way I've found to return to the first tab is to close all my other tabs.
    This doesn't always happen (i.e. I can have two firefox windows open and only one of them does it!)
    I'm not sure if it's a feature or something? But it's very annoying!
    Any ideas welcomed.
    Thanks

    Hi - yes I can! I hadn't noticed that little arrow before, thanks.
    However I would really like to stop it hiding the first tab all the time.... Even when I navigate to the first tab using that "list all tabs" arrow, it still remains 'hidden' (i.e. I can't see a tab up the top, even when that tab is active. And when I navigate away from it to another tab, it is invisible again).
    Any ideas?
    Thanks

  • C#: 'Not a Valid File Name' error when I know the name and link are correct.

    I'm receiving "Not a valid file name" when I know I have used this link before and the filename is spelled correctly. I'm not sure if I should be looking at something else. This is my connection code.  It fails on "conn.Open()".
    For security reasons, I edited the link... it is not a working link for this question.
    private void InitializeDBConnection()
    strConn = @"Provider=Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0;Data Source=http://database.storage.net/App_Data/Tracking.mdb";

    A database must be locally available via the filesystem, e.g. an UNC path would do it also.

  • When clicking an email address on a website FF opens 355 tabs and then freezes.

    Upgraded to 3.6.12 on Mac using OSX 10.6.5. Every page I've clicked on an email address gets me 355 tabs trying to open all blank. I even accessed those pages on Safari and it opened Firefox and 355 tabs.
    Is it a bug in the OS or FF?

    If Firefox tries to reopen all those tabs then you need to remove the files sessionstore.js and sessionstore.bak and any existing files sessionstore-##.js with a number in the left part of the name like sessionstore-1.js to prevent Firefox from restoring a previous session.
    See http://kb.mozillazine.org/Session_Restore
    Set the pref [http://kb.mozillazine.org/browser.sessionstore.max_resumed_crashes browser.sessionstore.max_resumed_crashes] to 0 on the about:config page to get the about:sessionrestore page immediately with the first restart after a crash has occurred or the Task Manager was used to close Firefox.
    That will allow you to deselect the tab(s) that you do not want to reopen, but will allow to reopen the other tabs.<br />
    See:
    * http://kb.mozillazine.org/Session_Restore#Restoring_a_session_after_a_crash
    * http://kb.mozillazine.org/Browser.sessionstore.max_resumed_crashes
    To open the <i>about:config</i> page, type <b>about:config</b> in the location (address) bar and press the "<i>Enter</i>" key, just like you type the url of a website to open a website.<br />
    If you see a warning then you can confirm that you want to access that page.<br />

  • HT3702 I tied to make an in app purchase with my credit card. But it is not going through, when I know the funds are available.

    I tried to make an in app purchase. I know the funds are available but it will not go through. Why is this?

    What happens when you try to do an in-app purchase, does the 'buy' button not work, do you get any error messages ...

  • My Firefox browser opens to a white screen and when I try to browse a website it opens a new page and is also blank

    - installed a new updates for windows last night and restarted my PC
    -When I open my Firefox browser it sits at a white screen, with nothing in the URL area.
    -When I try to go to a website it reloads says "New Tab" and doesn't load any content and stays blank.
    -running version 17.0 on Firefox
    -Running Windows 7 64-bit
    -updated patches from Microsoft on 12/12/12
    -All my other browsers (chrome and IE) still work properly.

    The Reset Firefox feature can fix many issues by restoring Firefox to its factory default state while saving your essential information.
    Note: ''This will cause you to lose any Extensions, Open websites, and some Preferences.''
    To Reset Firefox do the following:
    #Go to Firefox > Help > Troubleshooting Information.
    #Click the "Reset Firefox" button.
    #Firefox will close and reset. After Firefox is done, it will show a window with the information that is imported. Click Finish.
    #Firefox will open with all factory defaults applied.
