Firefox Consistently Crashing


Recommended Posts

Apparently, I've screwed up my FIrefox somehow. Have no idea what I did since I've never had this problem before.

 

For some reason, it is consistently crashing by fading to gray and then not responding until I kill the process. It seems to happen a lot when I open up a new tab to Huskerboard lately, which sucks.

 

Things I've tried:

 

1) Restarting computer

2) Deleting HB cookies (worked ok for a while, but the problem has recurred)

3) Manually installing newest version of Shockwave (seems to be a shockwave problem)

4) Refreshing Firefox (basically, a reset to default settings)

 

Certain things seem to trigger this quicker than others-- accessing my profile popup at the top of the page (where you enter statuses, etc.) is problematic.

 

 

 

Any idea what this might be? I was wondering if anyone else had had this issue lately. I'm guessing it's just me, and I suppose I'll try a full uninstall and reinstall of Firefox if nothing else fixes it.

Atbone, you're definitely right in saying it's unlikely the issue is on Huskerboard's end. I just wanted to check on here on the offchance someone else was experiencing similar issues.

 

I'm thinking you were probably correct AR. I tried opening Firefox in Safe Mode with fluff disabled, but it froze up quickly. I ended up renaming my old Mozilla folders and reinstalling Firefox. It seems to have corrected the issue.

 

Thanks for the help guys!
