WTF is wrong with FIREFOX lately? - GoFuckYourself.com

Version 3.6.9

Firefox is already running but not responding. To open a new window, you must first close the existing Firefox process or restart your system.

Every fucking time the POS doesn't unload correctly from the looks of things

Maybe it's time for you to try again. They're up to release 6, and things have never been better. FF, on the other hand, continues to slump into a slow, chuggy mess.

EliteWebmaster · 09-08-2010, 01:02 AM

FF used to be on the top of the heap with it's lightning speed browsers but lately it's been very slow. Not to mention, there is those periodic browser crashes because of Flash.

i agree

Darkcrni · 09-08-2010, 01:24 AM

U should use the older versions of FIREFOX they are more stable!

blonda80 · 09-08-2010, 01:59 AM

i am thinking to quit firefox. i already found out another much better browser

SpongeBub · 09-08-2010, 02:09 AM

I use FF 3.6 on Windows 7 and it works perfectly. Never had a crash or freezeup. Chrome? Sure, give google even more control over your world. I use nothing google and plan to keep it that way. I'd use Opera before I'd use Chrome.

seeandsee · 09-08-2010, 02:26 AM

i hear ie9 is going live soon :P

mlove · 09-08-2010, 02:28 AM

Have you made sure that firefox is closed before you try opening it?

It's open source you drongo.

Odysseus · 09-08-2010, 03:30 AM

Ctrl+Shift+Esc
Select "Processes", found and select firefox.exe, End Process

this trick is also useful when you have tons of Firefox windows opened but you need to restart pc for some reason. Because ff remembers it as a crash so next time you start ff you get all your windows back..

Klen · 09-08-2010, 03:45 AM

Works fine here.

Vick! · 09-08-2010, 03:56 AM

Shit happens when you keep developing new and fancy stuff into browsers.

Just make it up to nice set of features, and then stop. Otherwise, this is inevitable. Same will happen to Chrome one day.

I hadn't thought about doing that after 20 years experience with pcs. Far out.

It's a piece of shit browser now, a year ago it used to be the best out there, now I'm going to uninstall the fucker. And these companies wonder why they lose market share and eventually fold. Stupid cunnies.

FF has always sucked ass should... the correct IE substitute is Chrome by far

I've always found Firefox to be overrated. Never liked it. I use Chrome for personal stuff, and I use Opera for work. Its only personal opinion, but I feel Opera is the most elegant and graceful of browsers. I never have a problem with it.

ottopottomouse · 09-08-2010, 09:13 AM

Latest FF been wobbly for me too.

Amputate Your Head · 09-08-2010, 09:15 AM

Safari 5 just released.

messiah1 · 09-08-2010, 09:17 AM

Chrome = Firefox a bunch of crashing not responding messages.

Agent 488 · 09-08-2010, 09:22 AM

chrome.ff is a big weird turd.

2012 · 09-08-2010, 09:23 AM

it seems to be going down hill ...

HomerSimpson · 09-08-2010, 10:03 AM

Chrome is much better for me now...

punkpred · 09-08-2010, 10:06 AM

It scoffed up half of my ddr ram I uninstalled it, cleaned my computer out and use Chrome and Opera now.

Chosen · 09-08-2010, 10:07 AM

Opera

anexsia · 09-08-2010, 10:11 AM

I use both Chrome and Firefox

Sergio Payingsolutions · 09-08-2010, 10:18 AM

I stopped letting Firefox auto update. So fucking annoying. Especially when the update causes problems. I've learned when you are happy with how a browser performs, don't ever update it.

dyna mo · 09-08-2010, 10:19 AM

i've been having multiple issues with one of my machines and firefox was part of the prob. i had to completely uninstall it (using glarey utilities), uninstall flash, then reinstall everything. had some drivers take a shit as well as the .net framework stuff go to crap, i removed the .net framework 4.0 entirely. not sure what it was for any way.

all seems good now.

Robocrop · 09-08-2010, 11:26 AM

I'm using a clone which I have written myself...its faster than Google.

CunningStunt · 09-08-2010, 07:54 PM

It was one of the plugins, java console or download manager, some shit like that.

It's a massive resource hog though, time to move on. I'll keep it for fireftp only.

nikki99 · 09-08-2010, 08:08 PM

yes my FF is weird as well

borked · 09-08-2010, 08:19 PM

Just the last 2 days, my FF has been playing up to the point of unusable. Some sites load fine, others not at all, GFY included. I've had to totally abandon it, even after uninstalling all the extensions - it's fucked
weird shit
back to safari

Mine died and doesn't even launch - every time I try to open it, nothing happens. Then, if I run the task manager, I see that firefox.exe is running, but there's no browser visible

Firefox - it was a good browser, then they loaded it with crap and kept force-updating it every five minutes until it turned into a bloated piece of garbage. K-Meleon is still the best for me and Chrome is very good as well...

SallyRand · 09-09-2010, 10:44 PM

I have no significant problems at all with FF and use it on all my boxes and Iz got more than one! The only issue I've ever had was that sometimes when I close FF and then go to reopen it, I get a message that says FF is already running. Not a big deal and I think its something in the boxes; all that Windows shit, you know. Sometimes that condition requires a restart but still no big deal compared to the vagaries of IE and I simply can't STAND Safari and Opera sucks balls!

Keep it updated, keep your anti-virus updated and your firewalls running and you should have no problems.

Sally.
