Sub Categories are activate memory fox - browser only, deactivate memory fox - browser only, options, activate memory fox - all processes, deactivate memory fox - all processes, blacklist, memory fox homepage, and restart browser.

This is all new to me and I don't understand its purpose or how to use. There are numerous options shown if you click on options that make no sense to me. Need a tutorial....

Memory fox is addon.

  • If you accidentally installed it then,
    • Press ctrl + shift + a it will open your addons tab in a new tab.
    • Go to the extension tab. (you'll find tab in the left side of window)
    • Then remove Memory fon

Memory Fox is a Firefox extension that you must have even though your System Details are not showing any extensions - https://addons.mozilla.org/en-us/firefox/addon/memory-fox/ Other Matters -Your Firefox is well out of date, you have two versions of Shockwave Flash, neither up-to-date (suggest you remove both and download a new one), and you have the troublesome MindSpark Toolbar - Google for information and removal advice.
