Whenever I load a page into Firefox I get the following error message: "[javascript application] Type Error: Components Class [CID] is undefined" This has happened with the last few versions of Firefox.

This issue can be caused by an extension that isn't working properly.

Do you have any AVG extensions or toolbars installed?

  • Tools > Add-ons > Extensions

Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
