    I'm getting pissed with Firefox...

    It's crashing all the time now!!!

    It crashes mostly when I have multiple tabs opened and I click a link that will open in a new window.

    Do you guys know what I should do to prevent this from happening in the future?
    I'm just a newbie.

    never had that happen before, no idea how to fix it though. maybe your puter is running to slow to make it all work

      my first guess would be to reinstall and possibly try a reboot.

      my laptop was recently haveing a similar issue with IE. when it had been running for a while and id open a new window it would lack to a stop and blue screen, its fixed now though.

            how many extentions are you running?

            I dumped a few of them and that same problem went away.

              Firefox is the most stable browser yet for me.

              Did you upgrade over a prior install?

                    I haven't updated since the latest upgrade, my copy is working just fine. Once every couple weeks it locks on a site or two but nothing major at all. It seems to lock whenever I go to GG&J though.

                      I came across the problem once I upgraded to 1.0 (no extensions).

                      I eliminated the problem once I reverted to .8 on one machine, and .9 on the other.

                      I had issues with the middle-mouse button (open-tab function) - click on a link and CRASH, but it is the best browsers out there, IMO.

                            I just had Opera start crashing on me. Gets so annoying. I tried fresh install, overwriting, everything and it still crashes. I am on a new Dell BTW.....

                                  the 1.0 version introduced some fatal errors to my system. I often start Ffox and it just shows me the window, but none of the buttons work.

                                  so I dumped it, and installed Mozilla 1.7.3

                                          I am not sure why people are using FireFox. Internet Explorer works great, never had problems with it, loads fast and does everything I want it to.

                                              firefox is a little slower than ie but it has some pretty useful extensions. i use both and can switch between the 2 on the fly so its all good
