http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/get/flashplayer/xpi/current/flashplayer-win.xpi

open that file with winzip or whatever you use for archives.. if you don't have anything just rename it to flashplayer-win.zip and windows should be able to handle it

extract the files out and copy or cut flashplayer.xpt and npsw32.dll go to start.. run.. type in "%appdata%" without the quotes.. then find the mozilla folder and the plugins folder inside of that and paste those files there

restart firefox

this will also work in the firefox portable version (run from a usb drive or similar) but is a different folder obviously (FirefoxPortableAppfirefoxplugins)

OK another Firefox question. I recently updated my Firefox and now when I search in the web address bar it takes me to a yahoo search page instead of the actually address.

Example: I use to just type the word warpath in the address field and it would take me straight to the warpath.net but now if I just type warpath in I have to go to the yahoo search page then click on the link. Anyway to change it back?

In the address bar type in "about:config" (without the quotes)

search for keyword.url in the filter field

Replace what's there with:
for a google search use: http://www.google.com/search?q=

or this one to automatically go to first result, like you had it
http://www.google.com/search?btnI=I%27m+Feeling+Lucky&q=

i need help again.


i have seem to have lost my navigation bar and back/forward buttons. If i go to view navigation is not checked but it will not allow me to check it either. I just removed the dumb amazon shopper help thing and that is when my trouble started.

Any ideas?HELP!

Right click in a blank spot at the top of the page, you should be able to recheck the bars...

it won't allow me too, if i open in safe mode I get a black bar that runs the length of my screen where those tools should be. it is really odd.

When you start safe mode select the restore toolbars and controls option

done that and all it gives me is a black bar that runs the length of the screen where everything should be.

It is very strange. I have even uninstalled and installed it back still does it!
