1171420 2011-01-21 22:51:00 Sweet, no probs Speedy Gonzales (78)
1171421 2011-01-22 02:10:00 Speedy

I'm really sorry to have to report that FF is still crashing.
Do you have any further suggestions?

1171422 2011-01-22 02:13:00 Nope. Unless you uninstall FF again, then delete all of its folders as well. Then reinstall it again. Then see what happens Speedy Gonzales (78)
1171423 2011-01-22 02:24:00 Thanks ...I'll give it a try. symiggy (7597)
1171424 2011-01-22 03:43:00 Think I found the problem. Just got back from a persons place - FF doing similar ( along with a truck load of other problems).

Download .net framework (www.microsoft.com) - Install it.

Problem I found was a windows update of .net had corrupted.

Reinstalling FF didn't do any good,even after fully removing - this fixed it on this occasion.

I downloaded the .Net Framework as you suggested.
I also checked with windows update and was informed that there was a security update available for .net framework 4 which was rated as being important.
I therefore did install it...I'm hoping that was the correct thing to do under the circumstances.
I'll let you know if it fixes the problem or not.

I'm really sorry to have to report that the .net framework fix has not worked in so far that the Runtime crashes are still occurring.

As of now I have re-installed FF; re-installed Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 Redistributable Package (x86) ; reinstalled .net framework as well as doing the HJT fix...and yet the problem persists... This is all very frustrating.

Naturally I welcome any further suggestions.

1171427 2011-01-23 02:35:00 oh bugger-- Oh well, it fixed the one I was working on.

time to have a deeper look.

Going from memory here, as all vista PC's have been replaced with W7

Since this is Vista

Click start, type in perfmon ( or Reli) in the results, click on Reliability and Performance Monitor - when it opens, on the left menu under monitoring tools , select Reliability Monitor, when it opens, where there is a problem, in this case FF, There will be a red circle with a X , click it. There should be details as to whats happened - some (from memory) have the option to look at more details. What does it say ?

Hopefully nothing stupid like Firefox crashed -- No kidding :D

Edited: have you tried running FF in its safe mode ? To do this, click start/ All Programs - Mozilla Firefox - Select Safe mode, when the box opens , tick "disable all Addons" ---See what happens.

1171428 2011-01-23 03:11:00 Safe mode seems to be working fine.
I'm not quite sure if the runtime terminations are still happening since I have just now opened FF and not much time has so far elapsed ...but something odd is happening with the Reliability monitor that you suggested.
Specifically while there are many (hundreds) of small red dots with crosses displayed in the stability chart.....the sequence only goes between 03/09/2007 up to 29/05/2008.
In the upper left corner of the chart it reads: System stability chart Last updated : 29/05/2008
The slider below the chart does not move further to the right and I can see no way of updating the display beyond that date??
