hm, my friend had a similar problem... she updated firefox, uninstalled firefox 1.02 from the 'remove and add programs' list and then everything was messed up  I just updated last week and I only have the correct firefox 1.03 on my 'remove and add programs' list now... but it did take a while for firefox to realize I had upgraded... it kept asking me to upgrade even after I'd done so. And the little red arrow would appear on the browser bar to remind me to update, even after I restarted. I then clicked the arrow and it seached for upgrades and after a while concluded there were none (bravo sherlock <_< ) and everything has been fine and dandy ever since. Maybe you were in one of those 'upgraded but Firefox hasn't noticed it yet' moments and trying to uninstall the old version messed something up? Did you do the clean install like this? http://forums.mozillazine.org/viewtopic.ph...19e5c398a68155e Also (a wild shot here) try deleting firefox permissions from your firewall so it will have to ask permission again. |

I only use MSN for browsing Communities on MSN. It's a highly decorative version of IE from what I can see so it's no different really. Safe Mode won't open either. :/ Same thing. >_<
I was the last on the computer last night, first this morning. Mark's away for the weekend and Meryl's at her mum's so twas only me.
Seems like a good shot. Now I just need to figure out how to delete permissions from my firewall. :unsure: Mark's the net whiz, I just logon and get surfing so I know little about firewalls and such.  I've yet to find a clear article that explains it to me without me scratching my head halfway through and closing it to continue surfing. >_<I have firewall option in my XP security center but can't find permissions. :unsure: And yeah, I run XP if that might have anything to do with it. Deleted FF (newest version) and going to try reinstalling it but still that flipping old one remains. It's annoying me because it seems the only thing that's really different since last night. Remind me never to update FF again. -_- |

could possibly (or probley) be something with your profile (firefox) which ever icon you use to get into firefox, right click---->proerties->target put in -ProfileManager after the ""C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe" so it should look like "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe" -ProfileManager ". that should when ran (clicked icon) a box saying which profile you want to use, create a new one and see if that does anything if so exit get into the old one (if you can) bookmarks-->manage boomarks---->file---export. choose the loction you want to put the HTML file of all the FF favorites you have. And delete the profile (if you want). just a guess, but I think i had some thing similar happen but that was with extensions. Deleting the profile and creating a new one helped. |
