Hi, i recently had cause to format my hard drive (printer issue) Up until that point i had no issues with firefox( slow) probably my PC. After re-installing Windows (XP)I downloaded and installed Firefox v9. Now when i navigate to a web page windows error report appears saying encoutered a problem and will close. Any help would be most welcome as it is most irritating. As firefox does not produce crash IDs is it a windows (running XP) problem?

See:

Start Firefox in Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot 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).
