Why does top browser bar (one with Firefox logo & minimize/restore/close button) periodically display in Chinese characters?

The top bar on the page - the one that displays the open page URL etc. - always opens in English but periodically changes automatically to Chinese. As far as I can tell, this seems to happen when I have been working with MS Expression Web 3 & publishing to a web site, but this is not for sure.

In the past this issue has been reported as caused by the "RealPlayer Browser Record Plugin" extension (Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) that shows in your More system details list.<br />
The version that you have installed may still cause that same issue.
Do not confuse the "RealPlayer Browser Record Plugin" extension with the RealPlayer plugin (Tools > Add-ons > Plugins) that plays media files.<br />
The extension adds some extra features like saving media files.
You can disable/remove the RealPlayer Browser Record Plugin extension in the RealPlayer Preferences (RealPlayer: Tools > Preferences > Download & Recording)

  • I am getting an old minimize, restore, close button in new Firefox in XP

    I'm using XP sp2 and everything looks new except minimize, restore & close buttons.
    How can i resolve it?

    Those buttons on the title bar are controlled by Windows and not by Firefox, so those keep the old appearance.<br />
    It looks that you got the orange Firefox menu button on XP and no longer have the Menu bar visible.
    You get the orange Firefox menu button when the Menu bar is hidden.<br />
    You can press the F10 key or tap the Alt key to bring up the hidden Menu bar if necessary.

  • Why does the FP 10 work with firefox but not with IE8

    I down loaded the folowing for xp FP uninstall, FP plugin and FP debug from the link in one of your replys. now I can watch youtube  with firefox but not with IE8. you asked me before if i was using 16 bit. whats that mean and how do I find out? please help I just want to watch youtube on IE!

    Ok Shag, since you hadn't been on a Forum before, then I'll take some of what I said back:-) I wanted you to stay on one thread, you can get in trouble trying things that may cause you more problems than you had in the beginning. I just had your best interest at heart
    I'll even overlook your all caps here:-) At least you responded
    Now since you say you fixed it, what you should do is to confirm it is fixed by taking a look at your Flash folder. This contains all of the Flash files for IE and FF. Then make sure you have the IE add on and the FF add on. That way if you have any future problems, at least you would know it is not the Flash Player.
    You should only have 2 .exe files for IE and 1 for FF.
    For Video editing, I would check Microsoft and see what they have. Perhaps someone else will come along with other info for you.
    No, I don't get paid here, since I am not an employee. Just a user helping others, since I had a problem at one time and after 4 hours of researching solved it.
    Let me know if you want to check the Flash files.
    Thanks,

  • Removing the top most bar that shows Firefox logo, min/max option and 'x' to close window

    How do I run Firefox with the top most bar which has the Firefox logo on left and the "minimize window", maximize" and the "X" that closes the window? (Windows 7 - 64 bits and Linux).
    Thanks!

    Firefox's "full screen" view does that automatically. You can use the F11 function key to enter and exit full screen mode.
    By default, the tab bar and Navigation Toolbar also are hidden in full screen view. To keep those displayed, move your mouse pointer to the top of the screen and they should slide down temporarily. Right-click a blank area of the tab bar or right-click the new tab ("+") button and uncheck "Hide Toolbars". When you move your mouse away, they should stay on the screen.
    Is that closer to what you're looking for?

  • I must have clicked on something by mistake and the top tool bar where the Firefox logo was has disappeared and I now have a blank screen. How do I get that back? Before I could click on it to get to the print function.

    I clicked on something by mistake and now have a white blank screen.

    Make sure that you do not run Firefox in full screen mode (press F11 or Fn + F11 to toggle; Mac: command+Shift+F).
    If you are in full screen mode then hover the mouse to the top to make the Navigation Toolbar and Tab bar appear.
    You can click the Maximize button at the top right to leave full screen mode or right click empty space on a toolbar and use "Exit Full Screen Mode" or press F11.
    *https://support.mozilla.org/kb/how-to-use-full-screen
    If the menu bar is hidden then press the F10 key or hold down the Alt key to make the menu bar appear.
    Make sure that toolbars like the "Navigation Toolbar" and the "Bookmarks Toolbar" are visible: "View > Toolbars"

    Google Toolbar Options, in the Search tab, make sure that '''Enable the Google new tab page''' is check-marked. If that doesn't fix it for you, see this for support information about the Google Toolbar. <br />
    [http://www.google.com/support/toolbar/?hl=en] <br />
    Or visit the Google Toolbar forum. <br />

    As far as your UserAgent showing Firefox 3.0.11, see this: <br />

  • Why does the new version 5 of firefox show up all the graphics on web sites with a huge wide black border?

    Why does the new version 5 of firefox show up all the graphics on my web sites with a huge wide black border? They should be narrow and yellow!! I use iWeb for my web sites on an AppleMac iMac 22" wide screen.

    That is unfortunately a bug only in Firefox 5 and will be fixed in Firefox 6 (Aug).

    - Try inserting and removing the headphone plug a dozen or so times.
    - Next try a reset. Nothing is lost
    Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Restore from backup
    - Restore to factory defaults/new iPod
    If you still have the problem that indicates a hardware problem, like a bad headphone jack.

  • Why does flash player not work with facebook?

    Why does flash player not work with fcebook?  Whenever I wish to view a video, I get the message that i need to upgrade my flash player. Then no matter how often I download and install flash player I still get the message that I need to upgrade my flash player.  When I go check which version I have, I always get the message that I have the most current one.  I run Mozilla Firefox with Windows.  I don't know anything else.

    This means you don't have the latest version installed.  Update to 11.9.900.117, and Firefox will allow it: Flash Player Plug-in (All other browsers)

  • Why does the tab bar on my iPad 2 disappear when I swipe down? How can I lock it in place?

    Why does the tab bar on my iPad 2 using IO8 disappear when I swip down? Its annoying. I have to tap the top of the screen to view my open tabs.
    why did Apple switch the position of the bookmarks icon and the favorites icon. Now I tap the wrong one.

    There isn't a setting to stop the tab bar automatically hiding (or I haven't found one), and as to why the icons were moved I don't think that Apple have said. If you want to leave feedback for Apple then you can do so here : http://www.apple.com/feedback/ipad.html

  • Why does yahoo emails come back with failure notifications

    why does yahoo emails come back with failure notifications

    In Firefox 3.6 and later on Windows you can hide the "Menu Bar" via "View > Toolbars" or via the right-click context menu on a toolbar.
    Press F10 or press and hold the Alt key down to bring up the "Menu Bar" temporarily.
    Go to "View > Toolbars" or right-click the "Menu Bar" or press Alt+V T to select which toolbars to show or hide (click on an entry to toggle the state).
