Topic: Firefox | |
---|---|
I've never had a problem with Firefox until today. Firefox is telling me that it's "unresponsive" and they had me use their "safe mode" to get online. That means that I don't have a toolbar now.
Has anybody else had that problem before? |

Just recently had Firefox totally crash on my computer at work...Not sure what happened had a tech come in after all the research they did. It ended up they deleted the Firefox I had and re down loaded a new version of it and all is good now....

I restarted the computer and using Firefox's safe mode to start Firefox. I don't have a toolbar now. |

There's goes my suggestion of trying to reset Firefox, not sure how to do that without being able to access the toolbar.

It looks a tad different though. I'm suspicious about a virus. Over a week ago, I clicked on a site about gardening and it said that it was a hacking thing (nothing about gardening). I did a scan and nothing showed up and nothing has been abnormal until today. |

The Tech that came out did the virus scan as well to make sure no virus found.. I had clicked on a site just before the issue happened... He said somehow it put a glitch in the Firefox and said to make sure to delete the old one not to try to fix the one I already had... He said he has seen it happen a few times just start fresh and re add the tool bars you want...

Toolbars can be a virus ,but most definitely are spyware .Dont pay him or get ur money back. HE More then likely used Mcafee eww |
