    Fire Fox help
    « on: December 10, 2008, 04:08:54 PM »
    I just Exported my Faverits out of Internet Explorer to my Desktop.

    And then I Uninstalled Internet Explorer by going to my Ad Remove Programs List and Clicking on Windows Components Tab.

    I Selected Internet Explorer and Uninstalled it.

    I now am useing Fire Fox Browser and I want to know how can I Import my Faverits that I have put on my Desktop???

    you mean you reverted to IE6.


    regardless- your best bet would be to "reinstall" internet explorer, import the favourites, and then use Firefox to import your favourites from internet explorer. (bookmarks->organize bookmarks Import and backup->from HTML, select From internet explorer option button)
    I was trying to dereference Null Pointers before it was cool.

      And one more thing when I get a reply from Computerhope that there is a Reply to my Post.

      I try to go to the Link I get in the e mail like I always did and Firefox says Connecting To Site and then a Big Timeout comes on screen.
      Why is this but if I go to it my self it works??

      CH has been having some issues for me as well; likely unrelated to your configuration.

            Firefox does have a built in pop-up blocker.

            As for your homepage trouble, when you say "it says Google.com", are you looking at the "Options" window from the "Tools" menu in Firefox?
