Why am I getting a "Opening tweet_button.html" pop-up when I open certain websites?

Just downloaded new Firefox version & when I open certain websites I get a message saying I'm attempting to open a tweet_box.html (which I am not, I'm just opening pages from my bookmarks), and do I want to open or save it. Multiple boxes open for each site (3-5). Not sure where to turn this off??

I noticed this after the 4.0.1 update. I also have people in my office reporting the problem on a multitude of computer systems all using 4.0.1. I've confirmed it's not any extensions while loading a fresh Windows 7 SP1 on a test box and loading 4.0.1. 4.0 doesn't appear to be having this issue. I tried changing the html (aspx) file to be opened with Firefox, it ended up opening 60 tabs and crashing the browser. However, I no longer get the popups after restoring my session. Though the tweet_button.html is not loading on the page correctly.

How to get rid of rpc.html pop up when browser opens

when using firefox with my comcast home page, i get a pop up saying you have chosen to open rpc.html. how can i get rid of this?

My guess is that there is a "hot spot" that when the cursor rolls over this area it triggers the download of the obnoxious rpc.html coding that drops into a person's download file. Now why someone would go to the trouble of setting up this type of non-consequential ruse if beyond me. Maybe this is just an errant html code glitch? It seems to be localized between Firefox and Comcast (Xfinity). Funny that one message says that each side to this problem is pointing the accusing finger toward the other. Glad, for a change, the computer user is not incorrectly targeted as the source of the problem.
But the issue of a set of volunteers working on the problem and not being able to fix it is disturbing. Hope they (whomever) can solve the puzzle.
I am finding my computer is not able to download Open Office for some reason. Spent ten hours trying to figure this out. Just gave up. I like Firefox but if I continue to have these types of problems, even if not proven to be related, I am going to have to find another solution, somewhere.

Why do I get 2 curves and not just i when I create a diagram from a row af data in a table ?

Erik,
Thank you for giving me the points. Generally you wait to award points until your problem is solved. It is totally your at your descretion.
OK.
This is still not clear. To post a screenshot get the "stuff" you want to show in view on your screen, then type the key combination <Command>+<Shift>+3. The cursor will change to a crosshair. Click and hold on the top-left corner, then drag to enclose what you want to show (to the bottom-right corner), then release. The screenshot will appear on your desktop and will be named something like "".
Now click the camera icon in the tool bar for this forum:
, click the text box to allow you to navigate to, and select your screenshot.
Here is what you sent me:
The graph does not seem to be associated with the table of data you are showing. Generally when you highlight a graph the corresponding table will highlight and show the source of each of the series in the graph (dark and light blue).
This is what I would expect to see when highlighting a graph:
Right now I think there is ANOTHER table arround that is the source for the graph and the table you show is "just another table". You can move your data into the table the graph refers to by copy and paste, or simply typing the values. You can change how many series there are by grabbing the little circle at the bottom right of the highlighted cells (when you have the graph highlighted) and dragging as shown:
The Numbers Users' Guide is a great resource you should utilize and can be found here:

Try to rename the cert8.db file in the Firefox profile folder to cert8.db.old or delete the cert8.db file to remove intermediate certificates that Firefox has stored.
If that helped to solve the problem then you can remove the renamed cert8.db.old file.
Otherwise you can rename (or copy) the cert8.db.old file to cert8.db to restore the previous intermediate certificates.
Firefox will automatically store intermediate certificates when you visit websites that send such a certificate.
If that didn't help then remove or rename secmod.db (secmod.db.old) as well.
You can use this button to go to the Firefox profile folder:

Crystal ball time...
If it's the cursor you're talking about In Windows, try this:
Right-click the desktop.
Choose Personalize.
Click the Display link.
Change to a slightly different size. For example, if you're at 150%, try using the Custom sizing options link and setting to 149% or 151%
If you're seeing what Trevor is showing, without a delay, it's possible your left and right mouse buttons are swapped.

Captivate 8: Why am I getting a HTTP 404 Not Found error when I try to preview a responsive project?

Out of curiosity, some here have recommended renaming an EXE file behind the scenes to eliminate that firewall message when starting up. Are you one of those folks that tried this? My thought is that if so, perhaps this is a result?

Updated latest platform SE 7 U51 10.51.2.13 bit not able to open certain website.

Hi,
I have updated my Java with latest version SE 7 U51 10.51.2.13 bit not able to open certain website.
Please let me know now what to do so that I can open the website - www.federalbank.com.
Thanks & Regards,
Akansha.

Hi!
Thanks for getting in touch with us here at Mozilla Support. I'll do the best I can to assist you.
Can you post a screenshot?
Please see [[How do I create a screenshot of my problem?]]
Once you've done this, attach the saved screenshot file to your forum post by clicking the '''Browse...''' button below the ''Post your reply'' box. This will help us to visualize the problem.
Upon visiting the site, I can see that there is just a simple page with Federalbank.com at the top and no links. It's a unused website apparently. I don't understand why it would need Java to run anything from there since there is nothing on there. Is this your site?
See my screenshot below.

Safari won't open certain websites

I am sorry if this already has a thread but I couldn't find it. My question is whether anyone can give me some advice about how to get over the problem of safari not opening certain websites. I have followed Apple's suggestion's to add "index/html" following the address but it does not work. They also suggest to contact each websites adminstrator which I don't have the time as there are a number of websites in which I have encountered this problem. Also, it seems to be a deficiency of the Safari rather than the other websites. How do I get over this obestacle? TX!

I didn't want to start a new thread, but I just experienced something very strange.
First of all, I installed Leopard 36 hours ago, and except for a small email issue, it's been great. Until this...
I was on my own website, when it suddenly said it couldn't open my page because it couldn't find the server. I checked with my host, and everything was fine. I tried going there with an old version of IE, and I got right on. Tried again with Safari, and no dice. I studied the addresses to see if anything was different, and noticed that in IE, there was no "www." in the address. So, I deleted the www from the address in Safari, and it found the website. However, all the images were X's because their address starts with a www.
This lasted about 10 minutes, and then everything was fine. During that time, other websites seemed to work fine.
My head is starting to hurt again.

Safari will not open certain websites

Aloha,
I'm new to mac, and so far so good. The problem is that I can't get safari (or firefox) to open certain websites. The one that bugs me the most is https://www.navo.navy.mil/products/geo.htm . I use it to get weather information that is not available in more mainstream sites.
It is a military product, and what I should get is three windows/frames/boxes that
when you click one thing, it gives you options for the next box, which opens information that you want.
This site works, in pc no problem (win98, win2000, XP, running firefox, ie or opera). Is there a work around to this problem? Is there another browser that will open this site up in mac?
I've tried to find this information elsewhere to no avail. In my business it's essential information.
Help please!
Oh, and how do I find out what version os I'm running?
Mahalo Chris

Hi Chris,
Welcome to Discussions.
I'm not sure what the Navy site is supposed to look like, but it appears to load ok in both Safari 3.0.3 (public beta for OS X 10.4) and Camino 1.5.3. Here's a screenshot of what I see:
I can't seem to access any data though as each search tells me the service is temporarily unavailable (is that expected?). What do you see when you try to enter this website?
Oh, and how do I find out what version os I'm running?
