Download problem

firefox

March 8, 2006 12:15 PM from

I have installed Stardock central, windowblinds 4, and Theme Mgr. on my new computer. I had used FireFox to download themes, blinds, etc. because I.E. didnt work to well. When I select the download from "Wallpapers" and "open" I get hundreds of "Tabs" loading on the top of the page. Other settings in "Tabs" give me Hundreds of pages loading, and both freeze up my computer and I have to re-start. I cant figure out if this is a stardock, windowblinds or firefox problem. downloads from windowblinds are fine. The others are zip-files. Any suggestions? I just now noticed that when I select a "download" from the wallpapers gallery, the download box moves down and I have to select it again.It never did that before.

I'm thinking this might be a spyware/virus problem. Let's get the simple stuff out of the way. I don't want to insult your intelligence, but first update Firefox and Windowblinds. Personally I've never had this kind of problem before and I have Firefox extensioned out the wazoo. Are you using Stardock central to get the stuff or Firefox? I don't use SD Central so I'm not really familiar with it.

Got rid of spyware. There were about 16 entries. Everything working fine now. Can't believe that spyware would do so much. The government should crack down on them.
