Solved: Firefox links / sponsored links don't always open
Hi, can anyone please help me with this problem. Some links from within websites often just won't open, a new page appears but it remains blank and in the bottom left hand corner it says "Done". This also happens quite a lot with sponsored links in Google too, they just don't open.

After reading some previous posts, I have tried disabling Add-Ons to no avail. I also read one entry where somebody posted a HJT log and from that, was helped by one of you good people, could I possibly do the same?

Thanks.

Try and create a new profile to see if you have a setting changed in Firefox.

Hi, sorry for the delay in getting back to this. Thanks for the reply, much appreciated. I've tried creating a new profile and the problem remains the same. For example in Google I enter 'car dealers' and a sponsored link at the top for webuyanycar.com is at the top, I select this and the new screen opens (or at least tries to) but all I get it a blank page saying 'Done' in the bottom left corner.

I often have trouble downloading using Firefox. I was unable to get my new TrendNet router started-up while using Firefox. The routers' instructions say that Firefox can be used but it didn't work. I finally switched-over to Internet Explorer and it worked fine. What's the problem with Firefox?

Well I'm hoping I can avoid switching back to IE, I quite like Firefox, but if I don't find another solution then maybe that's what I'll have to do. Can anyone shed any light in this?

Firefox
I also prefer Firefox to IE. I attempted to download my photos from my camera into my PC using Firefox and I cannot find the file. I spent over 1 hour uploading those photos and they disappeared.

It sounds like some add-on (yes, I did notice that you disabled them) or plug-in or security application (firewall, anti-virus, etc.) is seeing an ad or something suspicious and not displaying the page.

With one or a couple of the problem sites try Firefox's Safe Mode and also IE. If you get the same results with IE then it's probably not a problem with the browser.

Right ok, that makes sense. I tried the below link (a sponsored page) on Firefox and it wouldn't open and also on IE and it wouldn't open either. So it''s not a browser problem thanks for helping me establish that.

So, where do I look next, what is the likely suspect?

Check all your security programs, firewall, anti-spyware or other you have to see if

this sounds like a badly configured security software blocking sponsored links in google ( not uncommon) BUT I won't rule out malware at this stage

Download RSIT (random's system information tool) from here to your desktop, then click on the RSIT.exe to start the scan.

If necessary allow it to locate or download a copy of HijackThis as needed.

Once the scan completes a textbox will open - copy/paste those contents here for review please. The log can also be found at C:\rsit\log.txt.

RSIT will also create a second log, info.txt, which will be minimized to your taskbar. Post that here as well please (it will also be stored at C:\rsit\info.txt).

You can use separate posts here when replying and posting the log files if needed.
