Firefox crashes when opening. After multiple attempts it will open then randomly crash later.There is no crash report for the event. Works in safemode but the problem is not fixed by disabling all the add-ons and extensions disabled. Have re-installed does not help. Kapersky virus scan came up clean. Update: 6/30/11, still happens with FF5.0 :( and also can't recover from being in standby mode has to be force-quit via task manager

Although the System Info says I'm running XP 64bit, I'm running XP 32bit. I can get FF to start in safe mode, but disabling everything and starting again doesn't work. Usually as I hit the first page, FF just hangs completely and has to be killed via task manager.
