Ambience Posted August 15, 2005 Share Posted August 15, 2005 So today I opened up Firefox and my homepage came up as normal. however, no URL was in the address box. I attempted to visit a site by typing its URL in the address box, but the site I was already on seemed to just refresh itself. The only way I can visit websites is through setting their URLs as my homepage, or if I want to access Google, I can do that by typing a query into my search bar. I've run Ad-aware, and nothing seems to have changed. I'm gonna run a virus-scan now, but I don't think that'll help either. Any ideas?

samg Posted August 15, 2005 Share Posted August 15, 2005 go IE 586379030[/snapback] Nice and constructive answer there! We welcome you to the "pointless posters of neowin Society" I would like to know how to make a new profile, sounds sneeky :shifty: One for normal use ... what the other one for :shifty: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
insanekiwi Posted August 15, 2005 Share Posted August 15, 2005 ^^ how to create new profile :D 586379020[/snapback] goto C:\Documents and Settings\YOURNAMEHERE\Applicationdata\Mozilla and backup or delete the content. once firefox restarts it'll create a new profile automatically. but backup your plugins and bookmarks first. @dhavalhirdhav neowin community rule #7# Unacceptable Forum or News comments.

ziggies Posted August 16, 2005 Share Posted August 16, 2005 :D i went through the same problem. at first i thought i effed something up because i was playing with themes. but if you play around with it you will find the solution. right click and click navigation or just play with the customize menu!
