When I have yahoo messenger open and I receive an e-mail, an envelope will appear on my messenger window. When I click on the envelope to check my e-mail it will automatically open the yahoo mailbox in internet explorer. I want to click on the envelope and have the mailbox opened in Mozilla Firefox instead of IE, how do I do that? Right now my default web broswer is set to Firefox already. Thanks for the help.

After an AVG free update, I restarted my computer and when I opened Mozilla Firefox, I noticed none of my extensions were working. I uninstalled all of them, uninstalled Firefox and AVG and reinstalled them all. That didn’t help at all, extensions such as StumbleUpon, PicLens, Adblock, Screen Grab, etc do not work.
Strangely enough Themes still work, as does an extension called “fox marks”, but that’s it.

Software.
arewethereyet I’ve got several dozen bookmarks from Explorer that I now want on Firefox (I use it more than Explorer now) but don’t want to copy and paste them all one at a time.
Is there a way to pull that all at once? If you don’t want to fully explain, a link would be good, I can’t seem to find anything on Firefox’s website to help me.
Thanks!!!

Profiles are one of the best kept secrets around regarding Mozilla Firefox (my browser of choice).
In the role of web site designer, I find it useful to have Firefox set up with various Extensions for helping test compliance, keep track of Google Adsense earnings, checking PageRank and Alexa rating, etc…
However, when I am simply surfing the internet, I don’t want to be weighed down by all these tools, cluttering up my status and toolbars. I like a slick, simple browser that looks good and works quickly.
Fortunately, I am able to have both of these scenarios in Firefox, through the wonder of Profiles.
How do Firefox Profiles work?
Firefox allows multiple users to set up the browser to suit their own specific needs and tastes, from Themes and Extensions to Bookmarks and Home Page.
Upon startup of Firefox, you are able to choose which user profile you would like to use.
So, you can now have a profile for your web development needs, one for your personal surfing, and even one for the kids (allowing you to increase Firefox’s security measures).
Each profile is independent of the others, so it’s like having a new installation for each user.
How do I activate Firefox Profiles?
1. Firstly, find the Firefox shortcut on your desktop (or create one from the .exe file).
2. Right-click it, and select properties.
3. Lastly, in the Target box, add ‘ -p’ without the apostrophes to the end of the target line (so that it reads something like ‘C:\Program Files\Mozilla\Firefox\firefox.exe -p’), and click OK.
Now when you start Firefox through this shortcut you will be prompted with the Profiles Manager box (as long as you do not already have an instance of Firefox open). It’s all self-explanatory from thereon.
For faster start-up, I advise that you keep two shortcuts on your desktop – one to load up Firefox as normal, and this new one to execute only when you want to change profile
