Title: Re: Firefox problem Post by: TheWhisper on July 28, 2010, 01:07:06 PM I get this sometimes and the fix is to just close the application from the Processes pane of the Task Manager Window - Ctrl Alt Del
Then click the Firefox icon again and it should start ok Title: Re: Firefox problem Post by: mondatoo on July 28, 2010, 01:11:32 PM Use Opera Don't do this,I use it and it's shit,crashes all the time,I've only stuck with it coz I like the speed dial but will be changing soon as it tilts me hard Title: Re: Firefox problem Post by: Bongo on July 28, 2010, 01:14:57 PM Opera is great :)up
You can get speed dial for other browsers though: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/4810/ Title: Re: Firefox problem Post by: Bongo on July 28, 2010, 01:16:08 PM One odd thing I found with Chrome - having it installed (but not running) made firefox run slowly and unstable. Uninstalling Chrome fixed the issue. ;dingdell;
Title: Re: Firefox problem Post by: Shogun112 on July 28, 2010, 01:49:53 PM Run a scan from www.hitmanpro.nl
Its the dogs. Title: Re: Firefox problem Post by: Cf on July 28, 2010, 02:00:47 PM Most of the good addons you can get for other browsers (speed dial, mouse gestures, tabs, paste and go, etc) Opera did first, and still does better. Opera for me is also fast and takes up the least amount of space on the window. Going forwards/backwards in firefox tilts me so hard it renders the browser unusable.
Title: Re: Firefox problem Post by: Royal Flush on July 28, 2010, 02:51:31 PM There should be an icon in your start menu to open it in safe mode. Does that work? tyty all working now Title: Re: Firefox problem Post by: Bongo on July 28, 2010, 03:16:45 PM There should be an icon in your start menu to open it in safe mode. Does that work? tyty all working now If that works and normal mode doesn't then disable all your add ons and try again. If that works enable them one at a time until you find the offending add on.

Title: Re: Firefox problem Post by: Bongo on July 28, 2010, 04:22:43 PM Have you tried logging on at home?
What happens when you try?

Wife at home, kids (7+8 YO boys) on school holidays. Wife rings me up. "Kids can't get on Club Penguin" "OK, let me try here..... yes, I can get on it, can you try again" "aaaaaaaAAAAAAAAGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" All I managed to get out of her after that was that it appeared to accept the password, but they got the Logging On bit, and it never stopped. Worked perfectly here, on repeated attempts. S'okay, they've got 2DSs, a Wii, DVD, 2 tellies, and many other electronic baby sitters available :).
