Hello community, I've been having this weird problem lately... Well as I try to open Firefox an error window shows up saying that Firefox chrashed and that it has to be restarted, as soon as I restart Firefox, the message shows again, and only after few tries I'm allowed to start Firefox in safe mode by clicking on a button showing up on another error window. I already have tried to: -Disinstall and reinstall Firefox -Disabling all plugins (won't allow me to manage extensions in safe-mode tough) -Deleting the *-journal files

Any ideas? :'(

P.s.: I'm running Firefox 20.0 on Windows 7, the problem showed up really unexpectedly, didn't install anything new
