Firefox problem help

Recommended Posts

Chances are you have malware/virus/trojan/worm/spyware/etc... that is causing the crash. Download something like spybot search and destroy or adaware (Both free from http://www.download.com - CNET) and they can remove most of these things.

 

If you have a old computer it could be running out of memory as well.

Check to see if your add-ons are up to date. Go to tools, add-ons, add-on manager (left side of screen - on a Mac, anyway). I found 3 of mine out of date, and that can be a problem.

I assume you have the latest version of firefox...

It may be time to try another browser, but definitely clean up your pc first. I personally like Malwarebytes (free download). Give Google Chrome a try for a browser.It works very well for me.
