I had to "un-install" Foxfire and reinstall the older version I was using. Every time I tried to install the update it messed up and I could never make it open to full screen. It just kept opening the tabs under the Foxfire symbol on the task bar. Has updating caused this for others? I am using HP desktop with updated Windows 8. (hate windows 8) Everything works fine until I install the Foxfire update.

Such issues are usually a problem with hardware acceleration.
