Firefox Crashes

By A. Fatih Syuhud on October 15, 2009 in

Update 18 Oct 2009: After trying Firefox 3.6 for a while and experiencing the same crashes, I downgraded again to FF 3.5.3. I reset the previous setting and removed all previous add-ons and extensions (Google Toolbar, Alexa Sparky, Fireshot, Abduction, etc).

The result is amazing. I no longer face those annoying crashes. I don’t use any Firefox extension now except Searchstatus which function is to know Google PR, Alexa rank of websites you’re visiting.

In hindsight, I thought Google toolbar or Alexa Sparky or both that caused the Firefox crashes in my case.

***

When your Firefox windows closing unexpectedly it’s called Firefox crashes.

I experience this quiet often especially after I upgraded into FF 3.5.3 (the latest version).

Some possible causes and comprehensive solutons can be found here include:

  • ExtensionsProblematic extensions may cause crashes.
  • Plugins are programs that work within Firefox and allow you to experience multimedia content such as video, animation or sound
  • Other installed software
  • Crash when downloading. Try clearing the download history. In the Firefox menu, go to “Tools -> Downloads” and click “Clean Up” (Firefox 2) or “Clear List” (Firefox 3).

    So far, my Mozilla has been working smoothly. The one and only crash occurs to my IE. Have no idea why every time I start to browse, its window closes without warning.
    I’m using 3 internet browser applications (IE, Mozilla, and Opera). And in terms of functionality, Mozilla’s the best of the 3. But Opera is the best in appearance. I can easily download bunch of themes and instantly apply them. It’s cool.

    #what windows are you using? xp /xp xx / vista?
