    Hello,

    It's weird, I have several wp.org blogs and never have had this problem or even heard about. Everything works fine with the wp platform it's just when I try to use the upload tool for a post for photo's, vids, media and etc.... my browser(firefox) crashes.

    Any ideas?.......I don't have a virus, I have good virus protection and firewalls. I disabled wp gears just in case so it's not that either.

    :D thanks for any advice!

    It works in IE? What version of WP are you running? A few WP upgrades ago, I had a similar problem it was a bug in that particular version of WP.

    The other suggestion that I would have would be uninstall all your plugins and then see if it works. If it works, then one of your plugins is causing the problem.

    A little relieved that it's not just me....but sounds like it might be a firefox bug then :-( I hope it gets fixed soon cause it really isn't fun uploading the photo's and vids manually and I don't want to go through the hassle of changing browsers (reloading all passwords etc...) all over again.

    thanks people for advice!

    No, it's not just you...me too. I just posted a new thread about it, sorry i didn't see this one. It's really pissing me off since I hate using IE.
