I had a long-running post on Windows Forums pertaining to my inability to edit any comments made on Facebook with Internet Explorer 11. I can edit those comments with Chrome with no problem. Seems incredible that after two years I still can't edit comments with that browser. I have two Facebook...

If I enter a URL or click a link in an IE8 window, the requested page will come i an existing or newly created Firefox window. I decided to try changing my default browser from Firefox to IE8 to see if it would help, but couldn't figure out how. Is anyone familiar with either of these problems?
Good day everyone,
Recently I've been getting BSOD on my computer and I needed some help, so I joined here.
Before my computer crashes again, a few things that I noticed... The first time I received a BSOD was when I was attempting to launch Firefox on my computer and that crashed and froze my...
Okay, lately I have been having a real hassle dealing with my Twitter feed. I recieve a LOT of tweets in it every day, to the point that on weekdays I actually can't get back to the point where I left off last night because Twitter just stops loading any older tweets than, say, 8 hours ago.

This problem appeared on my brother's computer, I'm not sure when. On his Child account he can not access certain secure connections, however, on the Admin account I have set up, I can. There is obviously either a problem with the account or a problem with the Family Safety settings, though...
I am finding older search terms/phrases I have used in the past appearing on other sites. For example I use Google (with Firefox) to search for something and days/weeks later I am on another site and sometimes when I begin typing in that site's search box, it autofills with search terms...
Hello you wonderful people! Let me just cut right to it, my internet connectivity on my laptop has been a bit wonky to say the least. Every time I try to open up Google Chrome, Firefox, Skype or even Internet Explorer, it insta-crashes and asks if I want to re-launch. If I do that, it just keeps...

On one of the fora I regularly visit (it is: Link Removed ) I can't stay logged in. After logging in and switching to a sub menu I am logged out again :oops:
Neither IE, nor Chrome, nor Firefox does this, this is new behaviour of Spartan or a bug.

Is it a way to create a shortcut of internet explorer and Maxthon browser and Firefox that i will give a command word next to 'iexplore.exe' inside the shortcut to start a specific web page during startup? This way the start page won't go away from some application that is installed.
Has anyone noticed that since Firefox 34.0.5 has come out and they switched to Yahoo, that it's gotten slower when you first open it before you can do anything. I know it isn't my internet connection as I'm getting results anywhere from 50.72mbps to 50.76mbps. on speedtest.net.
I have been trying to set Firefox as my default player for locally saved .sfw files after I had to reinstall windows. No matter how I go about it, as soon as I browse for Firefox.exe and select it to add it in as a default program, it does not appear like it should. Going through the set...
