Topic: Firefox | |
---|---|
This evening Firefox is doing strange things to my computer.
The page turns into a fog. Firefox says it has crashed and asks if I want to restart it. It's happened numerous times. Has anybody experienced that before? |

oh gosh I just started using firefox.
funny that "firefox" flags the auto spell check. |
|
|
|
Hmm, das veird ya?
Ive had issues with firefox but never experienced the fog of doom. Other than that firefox is the way to go IMO. |

I did click on some links from here tonight. One was questionable. The post ended up being deleted. Then this starting happening. Hmmm... |

This is the first problem that I've had with Firefox, btw. yeah the little red line. I've heard nothing but good things about firefox I decided to give it a try when I had to replace my hard drive only a week ago so it's very new to me. I might be dissuaded by fog, though...seems fishy. |

Hmm, when anything questionable starts happening with my PC I will run ad-aware and an anti-virus, sometimes a simple restart works wonders. If all else fails you can always system restore. |

system restore. not as easy as it sounds! |

system restore. not as easy as it sounds! Why, yes it is. Control Panel-help and support-system restore There is probably a faster way to get there even. |

It happened again. And I had copied a link to put on here and lost it.
It tells me that Firefox is crashing and Windows will look into it. Do I want to restore Firefox? I have a 2 mth. old computer!! |

Update to the most recent version of firefox and if that doesn't help, in firefox, go to tools - options - manage add-ons and disable any you've added recently. |

It said: We're sorry. Firefox had a problem and crashed. We'll try to restore your tabs and windows when it restarts. And I have to click on restart. |

I just got the computer two months ago. That's when I got Firefox. |

I dunno, Ive been using it for quite some time now and enjoy it thoroughly. Things to eliminate from your computer: anything involving yahoo, anything involving AOL, and I cant prove it but I think MySpace is the Devil and will destroy your computer. Ive never had an account this is just my theory. |

Perhaps you should remove it and use internet explorer to download it again. Yes, I think I'll do that if I turn it back on tomorrow and it happens again. I'm just scared that it could be some kind of virus. I have Trent Security. It seems odd to me that in 2 mths. time, it says that it's never stopped anything. |

Firefox is great and much less susceptible to viruses than IE.
I don't have any problems with it and I run it on a PC and a Mac. I would also suggest uninstalling it and using IE to download it again. |
