Firefox crashing

(1/2) > >>

Lona:
I'm having problems with Firefox. It keeps shutting down.

I'm using version 2.14 and have looked on Mozilla site for a solution.

Only thing I can find is something to do with Java and it advises uninstalling Java.

I really don't want to do this. Does anybody else have this problem

Simon:
What add-ons do you have, Lona?  It could be one of them, not FF itself which is crashing.  Also, have you tried reinstalling the Java plug in?

Rik:
I'm using the same version, Lona, with no problems. I agree with Simon, start with the addons. If it's not them, then look at your security software.

Lona:
I've got the java plugin so it can't be that.

I've got avg safe search, I wonder if that's the problem.  This has only started since I updated to avg version 8

Simon:
All you can do is try turning off AVG safe search, and see if it helps, Lona.  Is that some sort of anti-phishing tool?
