Whenever I exit certain sites, a prompt opens saying something along the lines of "Wait! You're gonna miss out on a crazy deal! .....!" And you have to press Ok to exit page or press Cancel to stay on site. On Chrome this doesn't show up. What addon will get rid of this. I'm hoping you guys are the firefox experts I think you are.
View 1 RepliesI'm using a 64-bit machine Ubuntu 9.10, and Firefox 3.5.9 for Ubuntu canonical - 1.0 (Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux x86_64; en-US; rv:1.9.1.9) Gecko/20100402 Ubuntu/9.10 (karmic) Firefox/3.5.9) This problem has actually been going on since I started using Ubuntu. Firefox works for most things, but certain sites, many of them are ones you have to log into, but many other sites I log into work just fine. The first one which did not work was bigcharts.com. No login necessary. When I try to get a chart (stock) the page reloads with an error that I have to enter a symbol. On some sites I put in my username and password and the page just seems to reset. These sites work fine with forefox 3.5.9 on Windows Vista, and work with epiphany on Ububtu.

Previously I could see a message warning that there were problems and asking if I wanted to continue understading the risk. Now it seems that this page is broken: I get an XML error saying

Yesterday I've installed Ubuntu 10.10 . Everything is fresh new but my I can feel some lack of speed in the desktop and sometimes if you look really hard on the monitor you can see that screen is trembling a little bit. Not long before, the system freeze up and I had to manually force reboot.
I think that the root of the evil might be the integrated graphics from Intel Core i5 2500K processor. What's your opinion ?
I am using lucid has anybody experience that Firefox is slow to open sites ?
View 9 Replies View RelatedI am using ubuntu karmic koala and i have firefox web browser. Whenever I try to upload files in some file hosting sites, my firefox web browser hangs. I think the file hosting site is using some kind of uploader that requires java/javascript.
View 4 Replies View RelatedOn certain sites like this one and Sears, after about 30 seconds the screen goes mostly white with a few black spots and the cursor turns into a big white square... for a few seconds. Afterwards, the site mostly returns, but all text on the screen is unreadable.It's not fuzzy, just weird, non-discernible symbols. 4/5 it goes back to normal if I log out and back in, though it does over and over if I revisit the same sites. It's been going on since about Monday.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI use Firefox's built-in password saving utility, which is great. However, for some Web sites, I never get the option to save the password. Googling indicates that Firefox somehow gives Web sites a means of disabling password-saving.
How do I disable this "feature"? (Preferably without installing a plug-in.) It's irritating. I should get to decide whether or not I want passwords saved, not some stupid Web Master who thinks he knows what is best for the world.
I just installed FC13 and am having a problem with Java sites in Firefox. Everything is a fresh installation from the LiveCD (Gnome) and I'm dual booting with XP.
My laptop is an older Presario 2170us / 2G Celeron / 512 Ram / 40 G HDD.
If I go to the preferences of Firefox and disable Java, I don't have the issue but I can't open sites that are Java-intensive, such as AOL.
Once I re-inable Java and open Firefox, as soon as I get to AOL, I am dumped out of the Gnome GUI to the plain text list of startup items, then returned to the FC login screen and then I get back to the desktop.
When I open Firefox again, I get a page about the failure to open AOL... but I don't restore it...instead, I open a new site (such as this Forum), then close Firefox and reopen it.... but when I go to AOL, it happens all over.
As a recent (almost) convert from Ubuntu, I'd like to solve this. I used FC10 on my laptop but had too many SE-Linux issues (I couldn't do much without generating an error), so I went back to Ubuntu. I tried FC11 and FC12 but still had some problems. Now I'm trying FC13 and like what I'm seeing so far...except for what appears to be a Java issue in Firefox.
Every time after I resume from suspend, firefox freezes up to 7sec at "flashed" sites.That is very annoying. If I disable the adobe flash plugin, it is smooth without flash. If I restart my laptop, everything goes flawlessly. It did not if I restart the X service.This also affects the chromium on both the smooth scroll and the freezing at flashed sites. Additional information: Opensuse11.4 32-bit KDE.

View 9 Replies View RelatedIn the past week or so I've noticed some weird network behaviour. I find accessing some sites such as Amazon, Paypal, and Bigstockphoto really slow. Sometimes the page will not load at all. Other sites are fine. The problem sites are not a problem for others on my LAN at home. When I try to open the problem sites, I can see in Firestarter blocked connections coming from 2.1(8/9).xxx.xxx on various ports such as 36007. This only happens for the problem sites. I attached a typical output from firestarter.
This happens with Firfeox or Chrome. Using Ubuntu 10.10
How can i tell firefox to prompt me where to download files. I could do it in windows, but the menu is different in Ubuntu (Lucid)
View 2 Replies View RelatedA while ago, I removed the Ubuntu One entry from my Startup Applications because it was annoying having to activate the keyring every time I booted up/logged on. Now, I am prompted for a password once I start Firefox (mind that it's only the first time I run Firefox after boot/login). I'm assuming it's Ubuntu One because of the sequence of events, but feel free to correct me if you think otherwise. How can I stop this?
Running standard Ubuntu 10.04.

After upgrading to a new release (Fedora 12, for example), I can no longer reach most of the Web through my browser (Firefox) or mail client (Thunderbird). I've tried running a Live! installation, installing clean from a DVD, and running preupgrade from my working Fedora 10 system, always with the same result -- I can reach a few of the Fedora pages (main, documentation, some others), but nothing else (Google, for example).
What's maddening is that I know I have a good connection, because I can perform a software update, install new software, etc., but only strictly Fedora-related activities; also, I can ping www.google.com and get a good response, so I know the DNS services are working to some extent. But neither Firefox nor Thunderbird can use them in any useful way.
I dual boot XP and FC14 and have 2 routers. I can connect and ping one of these routers when I'm in FC and I have an IP address I just can't load any websites. When I connect to the other router (my main router) it works fine. When I boot into XP and connect to the problem router I can load pages fine. It's only when I'm on FC14 and connect to the problem router that I can't load pages even though I have an IP and can ping around.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm running VLC (full screen mode) on Ubuntu 10.04 with the gnome desktop. When I exit from VLC, it does not repaint the desktop. It leaves the entire screen white. I can click on the screen, and this causes the rectangle formed by the upper left corner of the screen and the current mouse position to get repainted. So, by clicking on the screen near the bottom right corner will repaint the desktop (mostly). Does anyone know how to fix this?

I am using lucid and the adobe-flashplugin 10 package. When I watch programmes in fullscreen on the BBC iPlayer or Channel4-on-demand player it works fine but switches back to windowed mode after about 5 or 10 minutes. I put it back into fullscreen and the same thing happens after the same sort of time. I read this thread about flash switching out of fullscreen when the volume is adjusted, but I'm not adjusting the volume...how can I fix this?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm planning on writing a BASH script for my website's server that will process data from user input via HTML forms, and then write data to the website's HTML documents. My question regards how to deal with the possibility that two users send form information very close to the same time, thus having the BASH script being called again while the first instance of the script has not yet finished.
I don't even know what happens in general when a BASH script is called while it is still running. Even if that is ok, and a new, separate script process is started (or whatever really happens), how am I supposed to prevent issues that could come from two different instances of the script trying to write to the same file at the same time? Is there a way to force the BASH script to finish its work before launching again, in the event of multiple requests?
I'm getting the following error when trying to extract a rar file using Squeeze in XFCE.
"Command exited with status 256."
openSUSE 11.1
KDevelop 3.5.5 using KDE 3.5.10 "release 21.12.1"
gdb 6.8.50.
Problem: When I attempt to debug my program with breakpoints set the debugger does not stop at breakpoint. Message in gdb window is:
/bin/sh -c libtool gdb .../C++/Graphyxs/debug/./src/graphyxs --interpreter=mi2 -quiet
(gdb) set print static-members off
(gdb) Process exited
Attempted fix: Some forum posts suggest KDevelop upgrade. Upgraded from 3.5.4 to 3.5.5; gdb upgrade not available in openSUSE.
Other posts recommend assurance that debugger options are properly set. KDevelop Project Options has Compiler Flags -O0 -g3 with "debug" configuration.
Is it possible to configure Yast Software Manager module so that it does not completely exit when done installing a package? It get's annoying to search for a package and install it, the software manager exits, you then have to reopen it, install another etc. a few minutes later.
Seems this would be a config option, but if so I can't seem to find it.
