    I have had a similar problem, is there something in particular that you do to cause it to crash? One of my extensions was crashing mine when I dragged anything in the browser...

    Not that I'm aware of, I'm running firefox in safe mode with no addons or extensions. I suppose it could be due to only 500meg ram but I don't know for sure.

  • Have you updated to the newest version of AVG? to get version 8 you need to go to their website - I don't think it auto-updated to it. That may help, Kai'sMummy.

    Yes i checked and that is what i did in the first place, get ver 8 off the website....i have no add ons as such - a yahoo toolbar and a avg safe search....to be honest theres not much n here as it is new and so am i lol :confused:

    any more ideas? i'd be most appreciative

    I have been having a bad time of it with firefox lately, I did upgrade to that version but it wasn't compatible with my AVG anti virus so I went back to the previous version. But it still closes down an awful lot- annoyingly when I click on a link / try to open another page etc.....I have no idea why!!! :mad:

    I have firefox 3 and avg8 installed on both my new vista and my old xp machines with no problems at all!
    :idea:
