Homepage Protection problem towards Firefox 39.0

[Gloops]

Hello everybody,

I have Firefox 39.0 installed with TabMixPlus, Classic Theme Restorer and SpeedDial (among others)

on Windows XP Home SP3, protected by Online Armor Free 14 and Avast Internet Explorer 2015.

Changing the home page in Firefox only works when the homepage protection in IOBit Advanced SystemCare 8 is dis-activated.

So, I tried seizing "chrome://speeddial/content/speeddial.xul" as homepage in ASC, but as soon as I validate it (sometimes with a fourth of a second of delay), it is replaced by "about:newtab", so this is what Firefox shows the next time it is opened.

How can I avoid that ?

Is the Homepage protection managed on several screens ?

Hi Gloops,

 

Please kindly note that Homepage Protection in ASC is designed for protecting the homepage of your browser from being malicious modified.

 

If you want to change the homepage, you need turn off Homepage Protection in ASC first, or you can directly change the homepage by clicking on Details text link left beside the switch of Homepage Protection under Protect tab in ASC.

Thanks. I think that's how it should work to protect against those adwares like iLivid products.

Hi, this is what I understood.

I tried both.

Hi Gloops,

 

Please kindly try ASC v9 beta 2.0 from http://www.majorgeeks.com/files/details/advanced_systemcare_9.html to see how it works.
