So you will always get an authentication pop up, unless you configure your browser to offer Windows credentials to this http-401 response.įor Firefox, you can try to change the value of -generic-ntlm to true.įor IE, you can try to change the User Authentication value to “Automatic logon with current user name and password” in Internet Options->Security->Internet->Custom level. If IE is not configured to offer Windows credentials, the browser prompts for username/password, allowing non-domain users to be authenticated as guests in the policy substitution realm by entering worthless credentials. In this case, the behavior is the same as for explicit proxy. IE does not offer Windows credentials in the Proxy-Authorization: header when the Proxy issues a challenge for NTLM/IWA unless the browser is configured to do so. Proxy will respond with a http-401 web authentication requirement to client. hi STRDM, in order to force popups opening in a new tab instead enter into the firefox. Internet Explorer (IE) automatically sends Windows credentials in the Proxy-Authorization: header when the ProxySG issues a challenge for NTLM/IWA. I just want it to open in a new tab but dont see the option to. How do I stop Firefox from opening a new tab when I click on a link Chosen Solution Go to: OPTIONS > GENERAL > TABS Make sure only the third box is unchecked When you open a link in a new tab, switch to it immediately I usually close and reopen the browser after making changes to settings and test to see if they worked. I would appreciate any and all replies.Įdited by fgeelo, 30 September 2010 - 07:29 AM.Proxy will respond with a http-407 proxy authentication requirement to client. Besides, these tabs opened from elements that were already on websites I had open, (ads, facebook "like" boxes) so it leads me to believe its something more cryptic? This is not a regular occurance and has only happened today. I am quite sure I have not got any viruses as I have a multi layered protection implemented on my computer and am concious of what I download/what websites I visit. Then, automatically, another Adtechus tab popped up shortly after!

But the thing is, I never did this in the first place! Plus, the website was already closed 20 seconds previously before this new tab popped up. I can recreate this by right clicking the Facebook box on this specific website and choosing "This Frame > Open Frame in New Tab". The thing that perplexes me is that, my mouse didn't go near it, and so I couldnt have clicked it.Īfter this, a short while later, I re-opened the game, alt tabbed and before I could close it, another tab opened automatically from a site I was on before with a Facebook box implemented into it, and for some reason the new tab contained the Facebook "like" box seperate from everything else.įull website with the box to the left, here: I had a look on the website that was open when I alt tabbed before the new tab to Adtech opened and one of the ads on it had an Adtechus URL. (A legitimate AD company from what I can tell). As soon as I did this, a tab opened to Adtechus. I alt-tabbed from the game to Firefox, and right clicked my taskbar and closed the game.

FIREFOX POPUPS OPEN IN NEW TAB FULL
This is a weird case, and I'm pretty sure it's not attributed to a virus.īasically, I was playing full screen Starcraft whilst Firefox was running with multiple tabs open in the background.
