When using Google firefox is redirecting my serch to some site named tanzinga for advertising purposes.

Running XP Home, fully updated and current. Use AVG anti-virus current. Have run ad-aware, no help. Run IObit security360, no help.
It most often seems to happen when using Google to search.

Do a malware check with some malware scan programs.<br />
You need to scan with all programs because each program detects different malware.<br />
Make sure that you update each program to get the latest version of the database before doing a scan.<br />

  • When using google I am transferred to other web search sites and not the sites I am clicking on.

    While using Google I am being connected to other search sites and not the sites I am clicking to go to.
    == URL of affected sites ==
    http://

    It has nothing to do with Firefox -- it sounds like the sites you're trying to go to are already taken down. If that's the case, try clicking the Google's results' "Cached" button, or just try the other results Google gave you.

  • Firefox crashes when using Google as startpage

    Firefox crashes and gives me a general error mesage that it had to close down for certain reasons.
    This only happens when I use Google as my startpage.
    If I use any other website as startpage all works well and I can go to Google from there and everything works.
    In short: FF crashes at start-up only when using Google as starpage, I see the Google page very briefly and then FF crashes.
    I would realy like any solution because I have always used Google as startpage and want to keep it that way without having to start with i.e. altavista and go to google from there.

    A possible workaround for now is to disable hardware acceleration in Firefox.
    *Tools > Options > Advanced > General > Browsing: "Use hardware acceleration when available"

  • I have a problem when using Google Maps, at some point my computer blanks the window and says there's a problem with display drivers, and it has recovered,but it doesn't. Problem doesn't happen with Int Explorrer, so I do not believe it is the computer

    When using google maps through Firefox, after asking for a place which is not the general North America section which routinely comes up, the firefox screen goes white, with a narrow banner at the top. A message appears in the lower right corner which says something about display drivers having had a problem, but now have recovered. However the display doesn't recover and the banner message is that Firefox is not responding. When I go to restart Firefox if I go to the restore point, the page is still frozen out.
    I do not believe it is a problem with my computer because it doesn't happen if I use I.E. to go to google maps, then G-maps works normally.
    This phenomenon did not happen before the latest upgrade to either Google or Firefox. I have used Fiefox for a number of years and also Google Maps on previous computers and on this one, and not had this before.
    This is a relatively young computer (Asus EeSlate 121) less than a year old. I have used Firefox since I bought it and until recently had no problem with Google Maps.

    I solved it myself, after the "note" which came back from FF/Mozilla just as I finished my message, commenting on what it was that my system had , I wnnt back to check my plug-ins etc. I downloaded the latest Java, BOTH 32bit AND 64 bit versions and latest Firefox.
    Now all is working.
    Thanks,
    B.

  • Untrusted connection Error when using google search field in top line. Ok with other search engines

    When opening www.google.dk and searching from the page, everything is ok
    When using Google search engine in the address line search bar the error is present
    When changing to Yahoo, bing or another search engine in the search bar, the error is not present
    So, the error
    "www.google.com uses an invalid security certificate.
    The certificate is not trusted because no issuer chain was provided.
    (Error code: sec_error_unknown_issuer)"
    is only present when using google search engine in the search bar
    Have tried to delete the files cert8.db and key3.db with no success
    Read about firewall settings, but Bullguard firewall was not covered

    In your "More system details" it says your address bar search provider is Babylon, not Google. Perhaps that's the problem? Or are you using a shortcut to force the address bar search to Google?
    This add-on will reset your address bar search to Google: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/searchreset/
    That might not stick if you have an add-on which reverts the setting. You can disable nonessential and unrecognized extensions here:
    orange Firefox button (or Tools menu) > Add-ons > Extensions category
    Also, you might need to edit or delete your user.js file to prevent your settings from being overridden at the next startup. This article has info on that: [[How to fix preferences that won't save]].
    Any luck?

  • Suggestion: to add the feature to expand the to/cc/bcc windows when using google mail.

    when using google mail, at the compose window can you add
    the capability to expand the size of the to/cc/bcc/ windows?
    Safari allows the expansion of the to/cc/bcc windows so one
    may see all the entries at a glance. TIA. wm king

    That capability will be added in Firefox 4.
    I see you have OS X 10.4 and a PPC Mac, unfortunately you will not be able to install Firefox 4 as it requires an Intel Mac and at least OS X 10.5. There is a third party build of Firefox 4 for the PPC and 10.4 available from http://www.floodgap.com/software/tenfourfox/

  • Why do I get a "call ended" alert when using  Googles Maps through hands free Blue Tooth service in my car

    Why do I get a "call ended" alert after voice directions, when using Googles Maps App with my iPhone 5s paired to Bluetooth service in my GM auto

        Hello Snosilla! I'm so sorry for all the confusion and for all the time taken to activate service with us! I do see that the iPhone 5c is $99.99 right now. The iPhone 5s is actually $199.99. There's no need to call Pam anymore, we can take over from here.
    I've followed you in the forums. Please accept me, and follow me back. Then, send me a Direct Message and I can look into this for you. If you do not have an active line yet, I may need to get you through to our activations department, but I will do all I can!

  • A site I need for consulting purposes requires an add-on known as "Intranet for Firefox". When one accepts the add-on installation, a return message is displayed claiming that it cannot be found. At this point, I have to use IE to access the site.

    A site I need for consulting purposes (http://www.aegtelecom.com.pt/) requires an add-on known as “Intranet for Firefox”. When one accepts the add-on installation, a return message is displayed claiming that it cannot be found. At this point, I have to use IE to access the site. However, being a steadfast Firefox user, I would prefer to use Firefox for this purpose.

    http://www.aegtelecom.com.pt/contactos <br />
    Have you tried contacting that web site's support department for help with that issue? <br />
    If that web site can't find the add-on it says is needed, they need to fix that problem with their servers.
    Or you can try using IE Tab2 to run IE in a Firefox tab. <br />

  • My keypad keeps disappearing when using google -- but only in the horizontal position.  In vertical, it works fine.  I have powered off and on, checked that Safari Instant is on, and cleared Safari cache.  Any help will be appreciated.

    My keypad keeps disappearing when using google -- but only in the horizontal position.   Vertically, it works fine.  I have powered off and then back on.  I have checked that Safari instant is on, and I have cleared Safari cache.  Nothing has worked so far.

    Okay -- it fixed itself.  Without any intervention, after all else had failed, and I was willing to live evermore with vertical searches.  If only everything else in my house mysteriously recovered from the broken state.
    Have no idea what was/is going on with the disappearing keypad.

    You need to set up the pages appropriately for the target device. For iPad that's 1024x768.

  • HT201541 Some sites(like youtube for instance) want me to update Safari but when I go to  Software Update under the apple it says there are no updates. What do I do now?

    Upgrade the computer’s OS, or switch to a product such as Firefox.
    To upgrade, open the Mac App Store and try downloading Yosemite. If you get told it's incompatible, choose About this Mac from the Apple menu, check if the computer has at least a Xeon or Core 2 Duo(not Core Duo) CPU and 2GB of RAM, and if it does, click here and order a download code for Lion 10.7.
    Back up your data and check your applications for compatibility before upgrading. In particular, Mac OS X 10.7 and newer don't support PowerPC programs such as versions of Microsoft Office prior to 2008.

  • HT201328 I'd like to unlock my iPhone 5 for use on a trip overseas. Is it possible to unlock it for this purpose?

    I'd like to unlock my iPhone 5 for use on a trip overseas. Is it possible to unlock it for this purpose? I bought it before January 26th, so my understanding is that it is legal for me to do so without carrier approval.
    To be clear, I don't wish to leave AT&T when in the US, but while visiting my wife's relatives we really need a local number that they can call. I asked AT&T to do it for me, but they refused. I know there are shady ways to get it done, but honestly, if I wanted to live in that realm, I would have bought an Android.
    Thanks in advance!

    I'm not saying you're definitely wrong about the legality, but I certainly have different information:
    http://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2013/01/unlocking-new-cell-phones-to-become-i llegal-on-saturday/
    I'm no lawyer, but the official document appears to support my assertion that unlocking a phone purchased before January 26th is grandfathered into the prior exemption which allowed unlocking any phone at any time.
    http://www.gpo.gov/fdsys/pkg/FR-2012-10-26/html/2012-26308.htm
    Thanks for mentioning the warranty issue. I cannot find an authoritative reference regarding it, though. What I have read indicates that Apple has been fairly vocal about stating that jailbreaking may void your warranty, but has been pretty quiet about unlocking. None of these posts, however, gives any reference either way, so it is difficult to ***** the accuracy.
    I'm open to hearing different information as I definitely do not know everything about this subject.
    If possible, can you reference your sources?
