Firefox constantly crashes

[mercurial]

I'm in urgent need of advice. My Firefox keeps crashing when I open it and sometimes Windows explorer crashes too, after FF crashes. I'm now forced to use IE
Please help me out. I hate IE. I've re-installed FF but to no avail.

Have you tried running it in safe mode (with no add-ons)?

Let me try that now. Thanks mate. I'm going insane here

If it starts with no add-ons enabled then you know where the problem lies Then you can start enabling them one at a time until you find the one responsible for the instability.

Ok it opens fine with no add-ons, but the thing is, I've deleted my profile, which means I have no add-ons, but still get those errors. Plus I re-installed it but still getting those errors. Perhaps I should try uninstalling first and then see. Thanks so much buddy

Could try Opera?

That is an option as well

Mine keeps crashing as well. Might be that window-swapping cube effect thing.

I doubt it, I've been using that for quite some time and it hasn't caused any problems. Do you have the latest DirectX installed?

I actually did download Opera this morning when FF crashed, but didn't install it. Anyway, I uninstalled FF and deleted my profile, then re-installed. All good now. Thanks beanieman

It was doing that to me as well on all my computers. Went through a phase. Seems to be better now. But it was weird. Was crashing on startin up Firefox. And it did it on all my computers.

I was quite worried cos at times it would crash upon opening, and other times it would crash when I go to my router settings. Then I was forced to use IE OMG what a crap browser that is. So slow and also kept crashing - sometimes also upon opening and other times the tabs loaded so heavily that Windows Explorer had a buffer overflow and crashed.
Thankfully, IE worked after I did a "Last known good config..." and that allowed me to do some things. Then I was able to fix FF. Glad it's all working now.

What version of FF are we talking about?

The betas of FF3 crashed all over the show on my PC too. FF2 is stable though.

Lol sorry. FF is giving me problems again so now I'm using Opera. Is it a safe app though? Havoc, we're talking about FF 2.0.0.14. It started crashing again so now I'm using Opera.
