    Firefox Issues

    And the issues with firefox start again. The last few days I have been unable to click on most things that have anything to do with a javascript, i.e. the view more smilies link on the smilies tab when replying to a message, yesterday, was trying to look at pictures on a story on I think it was MSN, I kept seeing in the lower left hand corner "javascript void 0" or something like that, its rather freaking annoying, and getting to the point where with all of the issues firefox has had since launching v3.0 I'm thinking about writing it off all together.

    Re: Firefox Issues

    My main issue with Firefox these days, and only on one of my computers, is that when i close it it does not really close, I have to open the task manager to stop it.

    Maybe it has to do with Win Xp as that is the only computer i have issues with Firefox.

    I always have that happen, but I can't even run FF now. It just crashes randomly. Brand new install of XP, oh well, Chrome it is.

    Yeah, I never thought about that, its only my XP computer that has a problem with it. I have 7 on my laptop, and it works without a hitch. Well, I guess it's settled, its a XP compatibility issue. Because I also have the issue where sometimes I will go to open Firefox, and it won't open, but I go to my process manager and it says it is, so I have to end process, and then try again.

    Not just XP. I have 3 computers in the house, 1 XP, Vista, and 7. Happens on all 3.

    Yep, I've been using that for a few months now and enjoy it. Although it has crashed a few times here and there, but nothing is perfect.

    Re: Firefox Issues

    What version of FF you running?

    I was having TONs or problems with the 3.5.7 build. Upgraded to the 3.6 build a week ago and haven't had any of the problems I had previously.

    Yea, 3.6 won't display somethings correctly and links are goofy on other pages.

    I do believe it may be time to leave Firefox behind for the time being, it's getting too annoying for me.

    Now Chrome is being a douche for me.

    half the time it displays websites as text, or just crashes with no reason.


    Did spyware scans, virus scans and all that, system is clean.
