Moderators Andavari Posted September 29, 2008 Moderators Share Posted September 29, 2008 No problem here. When FF starts acting up what I do is make a backup copy of my bookmarks, then I fully uninstall it making sure to also delete my profile folder. Then I reinstall it, and of course restore the bookmarks from the backup I made. In many instances this will fix some issues, then again if it doesn't you'll have to keep using that older version that's more stable on your system.

tcoffeep Posted September 29, 2008 Share Posted September 29, 2008 Question is, what extensions were you using in conjunction? @OP Fantasy is the celebration of what we no longer are: individuals certain of our meaningfulness in a meaningful world. The wish-fulfillment that distinguishes fantasy from other genres is not to be the all-conquering hero, but to live in a meaningful world. The fact that such worlds are enchanted worlds, worlds steeped in magic, simply demonstrates the severity of our contemporary crisis.Scott R. Bakker, Why Fantasy and Why Now?

writeaway Posted October 11, 2008 Share Posted October 11, 2008 A little late for a reply I suppose BUT: On my system, XP SP2, sometimes this just happens. I don't understand why. Disabling add-ons fixes the crash problem. After doing that the first time, I enabled them one-by-one. Since then I have discovered that disabling only McAffee SiteAdvisor puts a stop to the crashes. I then try running it again every day until it works. Not very technical, I know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not practical for me to find out by disabling ad dons one by one..but thanks for the idea any way. I suspect it has something to do with the google toolbar I`m still working on it.

YoKenny Posted October 11, 2008 Share Posted October 11, 2008 I don't have a crush on FF. In fact I hate it. I prefer IE7 or IE8 beta2 with IE7Pro.

Anthony A Posted October 11, 2008 Share Posted October 11, 2008 FF3 Portable is a great browser. I didn't have much luck with FF3 Desktop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
