Firefox problems

    I have formatted my PC recently and had to installed Firefox again. For some reasons, whenever I open a webpage, it seems to block most of the pictures. For example, I wanted to see the phones on Vodafone but I cant. It keeps saying "Ad blocked by KPF". Anyone knows how to fix this?

    Also I have it on auto complete. On IE, I was able to delete anything I dont but on Firefox, I cant seem to do that. Anyone knows how to?

    Go Tools -> Options -> Web Features.

    Make sure "Load Images" is ticked.

    Edit: What do you want to delete?
    Edit 2: If you are trying to delete "Auto-Complete" stored passwords, just go Tools -> Options -> Privacy and delete the "Saved Passwords". You can even delete individual passwords be clicking "View Passwords"

    KPF = Kerio Personal Firewall. So it is your firewall blocking the ads. Open the Administration Panel, choose the Web tab, uncheck Block Advertisements.

    LOL, thanks mate, that worked alright :D

    Bass.exe: Maybe its not auto complete. Say you open google.ie and then you double click the search bar, it will list all of the searches you have made? In IE, you were able to delete those searches, how do I do it Firefox?

    Ah, that's the forms, just delete the "Saved Forms Information". Or you can disable it altogether.

    You pervert... trying to cover up evidence of all those pr0n sites :D

    LOL I have all the porn sites I need, dont need to search them :p:D

    Is there a way to delete some of it and not all of it?

    Sort of... but it is tricky....

    If you just want to delete certain forms... you need to find the individual pages that the forms were entered on (in the history), and delete those. This *should* delete all information relevant to these pages... forms, cached information, cookies, saved passwords.

    It's really a bitch. I recommend deleting the lot, and just starting again.

    Cant get it to install. Some kind of version error, though on the website, it does say it support Firefox 1.0.
