View 5 RepliesI have blocked all outbound traffic in the advanced firewall window and have tried to make a rule to allow Internet Explorer and Firefox through but with no joy. I have looked through previous posts but couldnt find an answer.
I have tried the Sphinx software but I don’t really need that or really want it. I just want to let browsers, anti virus and windows update through. I used to let windows update on vista through by allowing svchost through but only allowing the update service.
I allowed TCP port 80 through but that just let’s most things through.
The process I did was create a new outbound rule, choose program path, choose allow (not block by default), apply to all profiles and then name the rule. But it just wont go through so I am wondering what I am doing/not doing?!
I have also tried the normal firewall window (control panel, windows firewall) and let firefox through but still didnt work for me.
I recently updated to Firefox 18. If I go to Windows' Control Panel and then click on "Uninstall a program", both Firefox 18 and Firefox 15 show up in the list of programs. Should I just leave it as it is, or should I uninstall Firefox 15?
By the way, I updated to Firefox 18 through Firefox's update feature, if that helps.

View 9 Replies View RelatedWhen I try and launch either Firefox or IE, the browser crashes right away before it even opens. I have updated my AV (MSE) and Malware software (Malwarebyts' & Super AntiSpyware), booted in Safe Mode and performed full system scans and they detect nothing. I checked the Event Viewer and it shows the crash, but I have no idea what is causing it to crash.Just for the sake of tying, I created a new user profile and that is having the same issue. I've also rolled back to a restore point 2 days ago, still the problem persists. [code]
View 4 Replies View RelatedDoes anybody know if it is safe to uninstall the Windows 7 Media Center using Programs and Features -> Turn Windows features on or off option?
Would having it uninstalled impact the operation of any of the Windows software and do any of the pre installed programs in windows need it installed for them to function?
Since I upgraded to Windows 7, I have never really used Media Center and I don't have a TV Tuner. If I ever did need it, I could always re-install it in again but I don`t want to uninstall it if is gonna break the function and operation of other windows programs.
I 100% use Windows Media Player and other software for media playback etc and so I
though I may as well uninstall Media Center since I don't use it and it would save me some hard drive space and perhaps windows resources too.
Whenever I start Firefox in Safe Mode, a window box will appear, that reads: "Firefox is now running in Safe Mode..", along with options to disable my add-ons and so forth. Is there a way I can permanently prevent this window from appearing, whenever I run Safe Mode? Googling only seems to find me methods on disabling Safe Mode, which is not the point.
View 1 Replies View RelatedOn an irregular basis, sometimes 4 or 5 times a day or sometimes once a week, when I start up Mozilla Firefox it will only start in safe mode. I have to restart the computer (HP TouchSmart desk top) to get it to run correctly. If I try Internet explorer, when it's doing this, it keeps opening up new windows until it won't open up anymore.
I have all my updates up to date, anybody got any ideas. I run Norton antivirus which also automatically updates.
Somehow, as usual, I deleted all the shortcuts that I had on my taskbar. In the process or reinstalling the shortcuts, the Revouninstaller shortcut icon just wouldn't attach to the taskbar. There was no pin to taskbar in the content menu.?

I'm looking for some help with some Windows Firewall advanced settings. I've already downloaded Vista Firewall Control to simplify the firewall setup, and its really doing what I want (asking me for any inbound and outbound connections), but the free version doesn't allow control over general network access (at least not that I can find so far). I need to get my Windows 7 computer to recognize my WinXP in the network screen, something that I can't seem to do without making some special rules in the firewall settings.
I've already turned off "password protected sharing" and set the "send password" option in gpedit.msc to enabled... settings which worked well in a previous install (AVG removed my access to folder options so I had to reinstall), but I can't seem to get to work now that I've installed VFC. So I guess I need to know what "rules" I need to set up to retain the strict control over inbound/outbound connections that I've got with VFC, but still allow easy network access between the 2-3 computers on my router.

View 6 Replies View RelatedWhen I go to Indexing Options within the Control Panel, the dropdown informs me that "Indexing is not running" and only the Advanced button is available. I really don't seem to be having problems with my searches although many a time when doing a search , there is a banner saying that "Your searches may be slow because index is not running." I will then click the prompt to index. The searches seem to be fast enough, but I really can't tell if they should be faster.Even though I have selected to index, when prompted, going into Index Options will still show that the index is not running??? Could it be that this action is only temporary at its time of use? Once I get indexing working, I would imagine that I would like to choose just those folders where speedy searching would be of benefit, but I'm not sure which files/folder they should be. I'm thinking Pictures, Music, Documents, Program Files (x86), Program Files.

I get a lot of artifacts in the games such as MW3 and I've tried everything from uninstalling to searching the registry for entries about ATI and AMD.Thats not why I'm here though.

My PC - a Dell Inspiron One 2305 did not come with any disc.If it helps I had to do a factory restore before when I had a bad virus. I had to use a program called EasyBCD?

However I would like to know if anyone can tell me a way to have the firewall software PROMPT me each time any application tries to connect outside of my PC?
So I can set a rule and say yes allow this or deny this?

View 0 Replies View RelatedI don't know why Microsoft made this so difficult in Windows 7 / Server 2008..I use the Windows Advanced search to find files containing a certain word, it pulls up a list of results... I can "select all" and I can do things like copy them to another location, but I CAN'T find a way to delete these files!!If I click the DELETE key while they are all selected, nothing happens. It's not allowing me to drag the files into the Recycle Bin.Am I missing something here? It seems that all options that are normally available when right-clicking on file(s) are present in the right-click menu (open with, send to, create shortcut, etc) EXCEPT for cut or delete.
View 2 Replies View RelatedWont boot into safe mode or original windows OS disc (which worked previously).I'm Using UBCD, never had a hard disk problem, never had memory problems.Disk is accessible using G-parted and all files are still there. The only thing i have noticed once the error started is that the label on my local disk (c) changed to blank but i then changed it back and still nothing, also made sure that my windows partition was set to "boot". I'm assuming its partition editing that i must do, but don't know where to start exactly, and I'm also assuming that it was a registry cleanup that caused this error.
