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've never had this error, but this page has an easy-to-follow idea on what you can do: Open Original Shared Link

Hopefully this will help!

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."

      What Dr. Gunn states is essentially true. It is a rule out measure. But be aware that to possess either of the two primary genes that have been identified with celiac disease (or both) doesn't necessarily mean that you have or will develop celiac disease. Almost 40% of the general population carries one or both but only about 1% of the general population...

      Have you had celiac genetic risk testing? A celiac genetic test is accurate with or without gluten in your diet. If you don't carry the celiac risk genes you can effectively rule out celiac disease for life.

      Good, balanced analysis. I liked the comparison of the different platforms in this context. Fwiw, the same essay largely would work if you substitute any of many contemporary topics. As a moderator of this site, have you stepped back and considered how this site fits into this essay? Personally, I don't think I have enough visibility into the comments...

      Test interpretations

      Based on those results alone, it’s not possible to say you have celiac disease. The test that is usually most specific for celiac, tTG-IgA, is negative in your results, and the endomysial antibody (EMA) is also negative, which generally argues against active celiac disease. However, your deamidated gliadin IgA is elevated, and your total IgA level is also h...

But be aware that to possess either of the two primary genes that have been identified with celiac disease (or both) doesn't necessarily mean that you have or will develop celiac disease. Almost 40% of the general population carries one or both but only about 1% of the general population will develop active celiac disease. It remains latent until triggered by some stress event which may or may not occur. So, there is a genetic component to celiac disease but there is also an epigenetic component.

      Based on those results alone, it’s not possible to say you have celiac disease. The test that is usually most specific for celiac, tTG-IgA, is negative in your results, and the endomysial antibody (EMA) is also negative, which generally argues against active celiac disease. However, your deamidated gliadin IgA is elevated, and your total IgA level is also high, which can sometimes affect how the other antibody tests behave. Another important factor is that you were reducing gluten before the test, which can lower antibody levels and make the results less reliable. Because of that, many doctors recommend a gluten challenge (eating gluten regularly for several weeks) before repeating blood tests or considering an endoscopy if symptoms and labs raise concern. It would be best to review these results with a gastroenterologist, who can interpret them in context and decide whether further testing is needed.

      By trents · Posted

      Since you compromised the validity of the antibody testing by experimenting with gluten withdrawal ahead of the testing, you are faced with two options: 1. Reintroduce significant amounts of gluten into your diet for a period of weeks, i.e., undertake a "gluten challenge". The most recent guidelines are the daily consumption of at least 10g of gluten (about the amount found in 4-6 slices of wheat-based bread) for at least two weeks leading up to the day of testing. Note: I would certainly give it more than two weeks to be sure. 2. Be willing to live with the ambiguity of not knowing whether gluten causes you problems because you have celiac disease or NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity). There is no test for NCGS. Celiac disease must first be ruled out and we have tests for it. Celiac disease has an autoimmune base. NCGS does not. GI symptoms overlap. In the early stages of celiac disease, other body systems may not be showing stress or damage so, symptomatically, it would be difficult to distinguish between celiac disease and NCGS. Both conditions require elimination of gluten from the diet for symptom relief. Some experts feel that NCGS can be a precursor to celiac disease.
