Full Version: Sudden terrible Firefox failure!

All of a sudden, Firefox won't work for me AT ALL.

I uninstalled, reinstalled... and it will not find any website at all. It just won't work. I have not installed anything lately. Why this has happened... I don't know.

I am only able to browse using IE. And I can't post in the Vivendi forum at all, because the text field won't show a cursor when I open the Vivendi forums in IE.

Any help? Ideas?

Well, I've also had problems with Firefox. For some reason the QuickTime plugin doesn't work and I can't reinstall it. Don't know why. This is quite annoying, since I enjoy listening to The Onion Radio News. Tough.

Well, I've got Firefox working again. I'd really tried everything I could think of, and I was sure ZoneAlarm wasn't the problem since I'd turned it off...

... but...

Apparently, TrueVector continues running even if you disable ZoneAlarm at startup. So the following are the steps I took.

1. Uninstalled Firefox (for the millionth time);
2. Deleted Windows -> Applications Data -> Mozilla (the whole folder, to get rid of the profile and EVERYthing.
3. Disabled TrueVector.
4. Rebooted.
5. Reinstalled Firefox.
6. Looked on in joyous relief as Firefox FINALLY worked again.
