    Have you tried opening FF in safe mode, i.e without any add ons?

    Start Firefox in Safe Mode by holding down the shift key while starting Firefox.

    The only thing I'd suggest is to uninstall it again,

    Then run a registry issues programme on something like ccleaner to remove the last traces.

    Then download and install the latest British English version which is 8.0.1.
    That gum you like is coming back in style.

    Thanks Penrhyn. Tried that, it didn't work. I'll try reinstalling again for the second time and see if that works.

    Edit: No got same error message the second time :(.

    Hello

    Thanks for your replies.

    I posted a query on the website and the problem was related to another program I'd installed.

    Thank you for taking the time.
