Hi, recently i have formatted my HD and reinstalled everythin, i am using Win XP SP2, and when i am installing browsers, I got firefox 3.6 version, latest one and i installed and using it. It is getting crashed frequently ? why i don't know... i tried uninstalling and downloading a fresh one and installed, but still i face this problem. Any one getting same crash with FF 3.6.
Well the first thing I would do is update to service pack 3. This is only because service pack three is better than two. If you only want to fix your browser, try using an older version and see if you have a crashing issue. http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html There is no real reason why your browser should be crashing though. Is anything else crashing?
I have been facing this loading issue with FF ever since I upgraded to 3.6. Though it does not crash... but I have to repeatedly refresh the page umpteen number of times, to be able to load a page..... fully! And... even I am using XP SP2! Regards, RightMan
How can i upgrade to SP3, i can't request in microsoft site.. as i use (Pirxxxd) version. Is there any way to upgrade in this.. if so pls give me more details Ya i too have the same issue, but not with 3.6 , it is in 3.5 too... But when i complain to ISP , they said it might OS issue, but even i reinstalled another OS, i am getting same problem, but in 3.6 it is something better with this loading issue. But even i reinstall FF, the issue persists and now i again reformatted entire HD, because i have got a virus from my friend system, which is entered into registry even though i removed it with my antivirus, i felt that might be a reason so i reinstalled my XP sp2. I hope now everything works fine.
If you used a pirated version there could be any number of issues causing problems for your browser. Install a genuine copy of Windows to solve your problem, simple.
^ I agree. If it is pirated there are all sorts of issues with it. You can get windows 7 for a really good price, just buy it.
Now firefox is working fine after complete OS re installation, but now i noticed that firefox is using more system resources it is sometimes making system frozen. My add on 's are Adblock plus AI roboform java console java quick starter Installed Plugins are Adobe acrobat Java Deployment toolkit java platform se 6 u17 Microsoft DRM Shockwave flash Windows media player Plug in That's all make my ff browser but when i am using firefox sometime occupying 127636K of memory usage for firefox process alone. I have above value from Taskmanager ---> processes Is this is normal firefox memory usage, i didn't noticed it before.... Mmm.... I no that using pirated version is wrong... And also know that it is not the reason of problem, because i have been using and many of my friends using for two or three years. And i formated again and installed firefox and it is working very fine. except some differences.
Try to access firefox in safe mode and uninstall every addon or bookmark you have installed and everything will be fine, I hope.
Hey.. firefox is working fine, but sometimes it is not under control.. it is sucking up all the memory resource and making other browsers or applications freeze, At that time when i check task manager , fire fox uses great part of Page File and memory resource. And this problem begins with Firefox version 3.6. And i am very careful so no virus infection in my PC.
I use windows vista and this happens to me also, but most of the time when opening multiple tabs or spammed websites. Except for these, it works fine!
Yes u r correct... When ever i given a overload to the browser that is opening an pdf file in web with adobe plugin. And when open more flash content website it becomes not responding for some time and makes other programs freeze. I think firefox would be trying hard to resolve this problem and hope an oncoming update would resolve this problem.
Hello friends, I have also face the same problem. I have install Firefox 3.6. After Each 15 min its crash. I have also reinstall two times but its again and again getting problems.
may i know your system configuration lol........ It shouldn't crash like this... i think the problem with your system or other softwares...
Mine is also crashing but not very frequently. Once or twice in a day...so I didn't thought about it much..
Ya... that was the problem with FF3.6, and especially when you open four or five tab with some high memory sucker like flash contents.. it is getting crashed it is not stable as FF3.5.
