FF 20 problem

l...@thestation.com (Charlie) — Sat, 18 May 2013 14:49:24 UT

After a malware scareware episode I ran several Antivirus tools that all
showed no infections. I also ran Ccleaner.
Now what happens is that if I am on a page that has images and html content
on it all seems OK.

If, however, if there is link on that page that would take me to a second
page that second page opens in plain text only.

Thanks for the reply Bob..
I've had to restore 3 diferent times allways "classpnp.sys" is what stops
the machine..
Tonight I removed my Logitech wireless trackball and went back to the
plug in mouse,
I'll see if maybe that's the problem...

Firefox 20.0.1 crashing

gafa_...@hotmail.com (RockyTSquirrel) — Mon, 06 May 2013 01:09:36 UT

Anyone else having problems with Firefox 20.0.1 crashing the complete
browser and windows 7 home edition?
Seem most times (but not every time) I visit any of the major news site,
ABC, CBS, MSNBC, etc... the browser
crashes and most times it takes windows 7 with it..

The earlier versions of Firefox did not do this... (least not take windows

Thanks, I did find this but I have Firefox and it
will not delete the dead links from its folder.

Curious how Firefox doesn't have one too.

I've had good results with AM-DeadLink. It's free and here's a link to

Firefox is mangling the WM_NAME property

jefferysm...@gmail.com (cjsmall) — Thu, 04 Apr 2013 16:49:04 UT

I have a script that monitors the WM_NAME property of applications. Firefox is mangling this property with encoded multiple tab titles. For example, rather than a simple string identifying this as Firefox, you get something like:

WM_NAME(COMPOUND_TEXT) = 0x57, 0x68, 0x61, 0x74, 0x3f, 0x73, 0x20, 0x74, 0x68, 0x65, 0x20, 0x4d, 0x61, 0x74, 0x74, 0x65, 0x72, 0x20, 0x57, 0x69, 0x74, 0x68, 0x20, 0x56, 0x61, 0x73, 0x73, 0x61, 0x72, 0x3f, 0x20, 0x2d, 0x20, 0x42, 0x79, 0x20, 0x53, 0x74, 0x61, 0x6e, 0x6c, 0x65, 0x79, 0x20, 0x4b, 0x75, 0x72, 0x74, 0x7a, 0x20, 0x2d, 0x20, 0x54, 0x68, 0x65, 0x20, 0x43, 0x6f, 0x72, 0x6e, 0x65, 0x72, 0x20, 0x2d, 0x20, 0x4e, 0x61, 0x74, 0x69, 0x6f, 0x6e, 0x61, 0x6c, 0x20, 0x52, 0x65, 0x76, 0x69, 0x65, 0x77, 0x20, 0x4f, 0x6e, 0x6c, 0x69, 0x6e, 0x65, 0x20, 0x2d, 0x20, 0x4d, 0x6f, 0x7a, 0x69, 0x6c, 0x6c, 0x61, 0x20, 0x46, 0x69, 0x72, 0x65, 0x66, 0x6f, 0x78

Re: Is there a "stop" list for the spell checker?

-rf-...@-.invalid (Ralph Fox) — Mon, 25 Feb 2013 05:59:32 UT

Firefox uses the Hunspell spelling checker. The Hunspell spelling
checker uses a pair of .dic and .aff files for its spelling
dictionaries.

You may be able to fix this particular problem by making the
following two fixes to the file "en-US.dic" (US English spelling
dictionary)

Is there a "stop" list for the spell checker?

jefferysm...@gmail.com (cjsmall) — Sat, 23 Feb 2013 19:03:47 UT

Firefox accepts certain words like "ans" (instead of "and") as properly spelled. I would like to have the spell checker flag this word. Is there any way to create a list of words that Firefox should always consider as misspelled?

Thanks.

New Firefox breaks xmodmap'ed keys

spamtra...@jacob21819.net (Robert Riches) — Sun, 27 Jan 2013 05:24:31 UT

The new Firefox for Mageia 2 (17.0.2, IIRC) fails to obey keys
remapped by xmodmap. I have a couple of the odd-ball keys on
spacebar row mapped to 'r' and 'w' in order to be able to rapidly
refresh and close Firefox windows with less effort. The key
modmapping is working correctly. With the previous Firefox,
