I was getting this error on an older windows xp pro machine and now it is appearing on a brand new windows 7 professional machine. I have confirmed the most up to date version of Java.

Start Firefox in Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot Mode to check if one of the add-ons is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).

  • Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

You can also try "Reset all user preferences to Firefox defaults" on the Safe mode start window.
