Hey! I need help from some of you computer techies...

I absolutely REFUSE to have yet another professional come over, spend ten minutes downloading or removing something on my hard drive, emptying my pockets, then leaving. I wanna fix this one myself, and am so far rather frustrated...

I have Mozilla Firefox as my browser, and everything's always been fine. Suddenly a couple of days ago, I cannot get online. I try, and a window pops up saying, "Firefox could not install this item because of a failure in Chrome Registration. Please contact the author about this problem".

WTH? When I click on the X of this window many times, it eventually goes away and I suddenly get online. But I cannot get onto websites from other sites--this message comes up, and does not go away.

I've been searching for an answer...looks like something about 'Client Security Solutions'. (?)

Anyone know anything about this? I'm SO incredibly computer illiterate!! <_<

I wish I could help, Emily, but I have no idea what could be wrong.

Hope someone knows--how about Peter? He seems very knowledgable about these things.

Oops! Yep, Tom...can't disable it...

It is astounding, truly, to realize how much valuable time can be wasted wrestling with these !#**!!# technical glitches.... :angry::angry:

Wondering whether just an update to newest revision could fix it.

Menu | Help

should be where some sort of 'Check for Updates' option resides.

Sigh....It tells me that there are 'no new updates available'..... :angry:

Ok .. ..

Are you on Firefox ver 2.0.0.8?

Is your pc a Lenova brand?

Ever hear of ThinkVantage?

I'd try one (or both) of these.

1) Install ver 2.0.0.7

2) Start Firefox in 'Safe Mode'.

Open Original Shared Link

In there you can disable all add-ons.

And it appears you can choose 1 by 1 which to re-install the next time you start Firefox in regular mode.

Good luck silly straddler :P

YESSSS!!! Success!!

Looks, suddenly, back to normal now, my dear Tom...

Danke vielmals! :):)

Emily, I only just saw this topic now. I don't know how I missed it last night, but I'm glad to hear you have beaten the devilish machine.

Well, it may not be ALL over...

See, I spent so much time trying so many things, I finally fixed it by following Tom's instructions but with a couple of modifications that I cannot remember now. And I've just been told that it has only gone away on MY user--DH and both kids are still plagued with this ridiculous chrome thing. Don't get it...I guess they have different add-ons than I do? But I thought I got rid of all the ones that were apparently causing trouble. Anyways, now I cannot remember what, exactly, I did. Grrrrrrrrrr..

Here's what I don't get, either: why would this suddenly happen? Nothing new's been installed or changed. Bizarre and maddening! :angry:

I was wondering about this. The 1st way you tried, where one add-on wouldn't disable, should work for whomever (gah who/whom again!!) has the Admin acct.

Otherwise, it's 'Safe Mode' for each acct name and disable stuff that way, or installing ver2.0.0.7.

Some sneakyass website might've installed something w/out telling anyone. :(

I use FireFox and have never seen a problem like this. I am presently using 2.0.0.11 so perhaps if you upgrade to that level it will solve the problem. In the browser, click the Help item in the top toolbar, then click on "check for updates."

      Dried Chickpeas

      I agree with your post and have had similar experiences. I'm commenting to add the suggestion of also using nutritional yeast as a supplement. It's a rich source of B vitamins and other nutrients, and some brands are further supplemented with additional B12. I sprinkle a modest amount in a variety of savory recipes.

      If a package of dried chickpeas or lentils says “may contain” or “may have been cross contaminated,” that usually means they were processed in facilities that also handle wheat, barley, or rye.

      Dried Chickpeas

      Welcome, While picking through chickpeas and lentils I have found little pebbles and on occasion, a kernel or two of wheat. Farm equipment and transport trucks are used to harvest different crops. It would be really expensive to have separate trucks and packaging lines for each crop. I have found sorting or picking through the peas or lentils...

      Do Antibiotics in Babies Increase Celiac Disease Risk Later in Life? (+Video)

      I think you're reading way too much into this study--it is a large population-based study, and when they do these they aim not to focus it on a particular smaller sub-set of the population, in fact, they take measures to be sure that doesn't happen.

      If a package of dried chickpeas or lentils says “may contain” or “may have been cross contaminated,” that usually means they were processed in facilities that also handle wheat, barley, or rye. The concern is not gluten dissolved on the surface like dust that can simply be rinsed away, but small fragments of gluten-containing grains that may be mixed in during harvesting, storage, or packaging. Rinsing and sorting can reduce surface flour and remove visible stray grains, and many people do this successfully, but it does not guarantee that all gluten contamination is eliminated. Some limited testing has shown that naturally gluten-free grains and legumes can contain measurable gluten when cross-contact occurs in shared facilities, which is why manufacturers use precautionary labeling. The seriousness depends on the individual: for someone with celiac disease, even small amounts of gluten can trigger intestinal damage, so choosing certified gluten-free legumes is the safest option. Manufacturers are not necessarily being overly cautious; they are often acknowledging real cross-contact risk in complex agricultural supply chains.

      Welcome,  While picking through chickpeas and lentils I have found little pebbles and on occasion, a kernel or two of wheat.  Farm equipment and transport trucks are used to harvest different crops.  It would be really expensive to have separate trucks and packaging lines for each crop.   I have found sorting or picking through the peas or lentils along with a good rinse sufficient to make them safe for me.  Do remember that lentils and such are high in carbohydrates.  Eating a diet high in carbs can lower thiamine B1.  Good sources of Thiamine and other B vitamins are meats.  Extra thiamine is needed for tissue repair to grow the villi back and recovery from malabsorption.  Low thiamine symptoms (gastric Beriberi) are very similar to symptoms of a glutening.  Try adding thiamine hydrochloride or Benfotiamine and see if you still react to chickpeas and lentils the same way. Supplementing with extra thiamine is safe and nontoxic.   Best wishes.

But you need to realize that cross contamination studies with lintels have shown the real problem isn't only coming in contact with gluten containing grains in processing but in the actual mixing in of cereal grain seeds in significant quantities with the lentils. I think it was a study done by Gluten Free Watchdog I'm thinking of but they did an actual count of the seeds in a purchased mainline food company bag of lintels and found something like 20% of the content was wheat seeds. So, you'd better do some sorting first.

      Can I wash gluten off dried chickpeas or green lentils when the packet says “may have been cross contaminated?” Has there been any research into this?  If so what are the results? If no research has been done why not? I am getting mixed advice from different sources, how serious is this or are the food manufacturer being over cautious? Many thanks Catherine
