My Firefox Is Unstable

    I've never had a problem with Firefox before and have never regretted dropping IE as my primary browser, but since the last update Firefox has been unstable and is throwing an error half of the times that I try to start it. I have unistalled and reinstalled and it hasn't gotten any better. Has anyone else here had problems with Firefox?

    Have you tried to put it in safe mode and undo the plugins?

    My Firefox likes to freeze randomly, I have to close it down before I can use it again. Gets proper annoying, I never realised how much of a memory intensive program it was.

    Check your plugins. Clear the private data if FF is slow.
