[Ham-Computers] RE: AT&T-Yahoo Trashing Firefox

[Paul Ahkolik]

When I try open a Firefox browser (post-AT&T-Yahoo install) it will not open most of the time, regardless of method. (Quick launch, start menu, etc.)
   
  I'm going to try to run it directly from the program folder as you suggested and will let you know.

  OK...now I'm a bit confused and need some enlightenment. Are you saying that when you attempt to manually launch Firefox that the Yahoo browser (IE) starts? Might I ask what "shortcuts" you've tried in order to manually start Firefox? Have you tried using Windows Explorer to browse to the Firefox program directory to launch "firefox.exe" directly? If the Yahoo Browser still launches when you do this, then something is definitely wrong (or the latest ATT/Yahoo browser now uses Firefox as it's "back-end"...this would be a surprising find if true.

Try launching firefox.exe directly from the "c:\program files\mozilla firefox" directory. This will help end some confusion in your description.

Aaron,

Thanks for the tip, but I have to be able to open a Firefox browser first. If I sit here and try to do that 100 times, I might get lucky and get it to open two or three times


Paul.
