Firefox problem

[PhunkSpunk]

Suddenly I can no longer open my messages in hotmail. Need to use a different browser. Anyone know what's going on?

Anything to do with an add-on?
AdBlock Plus can cause issues sometimes, as I use it.

^I use FF and have no problem in opening hot mail.

I've had nothing but trouble with it since its latest release. I'll call up one page and it will freeze on that page WHILE I'm surfing elsewhere. I can't close it any other way but by cntl/alt/del.

Is it possible the version you have is corrupt? Try downloading it again and make sure you turn off pop-up blocker and virus software whilst downloading. Uninstall FF and then install the fresh version. Good luck and cheers!

You, too?

Explorer is looking better and better.

May try Chrome, myself.

The problem I'm having with FF is if I right click to save a picture, often times FF crashes and closes as soon as the picture is saved. Everything reloads fine, but it's still irritating.

almost everything in this thread sounds like you have problems with one or more addons ..

Try returning firefox back to it's default settings. Try running it in safemode (it disables all 'add-ons' also.

Since I can't post URL's yet, here's a quote from the mozilla's FAQ

I did un-install a few add-on's, and it seems to be working a lot better so far. I also reverted it back to a previous setting saving, and re-booted the PC, router, and modem.

Sounds like an addon to me too. Try rebooting in Firefox safe mode
