Firefox 7.0.1 crashes immediately upon open. I've tried both a normal automatic upgrade, and when that failed to resolve the issue, I uninstalled, restarted and reinstalled my instance of Firefox. I cannot launch FF, so no "Help:Troubleshooting Information" is available. Win7 Enterprise 64bit. When I removed FF by uninstallation, I did elect to remove everything.

The likely problem is use of certain Oracle etc software, the developer Oracle being aware of the problem and working on a fix. Meanwhile there is a registry hack as a potential workaround, or the simpler workaround of downgrading temporarily to firefox 3.6.23.
