Firefox has died
Started to crash during photo uploads to Facebook and now won't start at all.
tried re-installing but no joy. Just comes up with the Windows error message
"Firefox has encountered a problem..rhubarb rhubarb"
Ran virus checks and all seems fine.
back to IE.

Hmmm this happened on OH's lap-top... well it's really mine, but an 'oldie'. OH just uses it to surf t'internet
...bless.
It took me ages to figure it out, but had the eureeka moment at 4.00am Sunday morning.
It seems as though with the latest edition of FireFox, some of the additions and extras do not work...which can cause these type of problems.
The recommendation is to start FF in safe mode (start>programmes>FF...choose safe mode), and disable each extension/add-ons one by one......and
see which is the culprit.
On my old lappy I had 'cookie manager' as an add-on, I just disabled it (in normal mode), and all was well.

Well I've got an even bigger problem. NHS mail just "upgraded" from an IMAP server to using Outlook web. The "connecting for
health" supplied auto-installer didn't warn you before installing it that it would delete any other mailboxes except for the old IMAP
ones. So I've lost 7 years worth of POP3 mail... Not a happy bunny... Desperately trying to resurrect them from the PST files...
