I turned on my computer, thunderbird program was not responding. It opened but then it hangs. On display is shown old mails, I mean when i checked my e-mails in browser I can see all new e-mail, but in program only from yesterday. I try to uninstall and than make install, but program still not responding. I can't do anything in program, because it hangs from 1st sec.

  • Make sure your Internet security software is up-to-date (i.e. you are running the latest version).
  • Remove Firefox from your program's list of trusted or recognized programs. For detailed instructions, see
