When I first open firefox, a window opens in the center of the screen. The title of the window is firefox.exe-Application Error there is a red circle with a white x on the left side of the box. Written in the box is: The instruction at 0x10008d37 referenced memory at 0xfffffff. The memory could not be read. then it gives two choices. Click on ok to terminate the program or Click on cancel to debug the program. Cancel and ok shuts down firefox. If you move the box out of the way, you can use firefox to surf the net.

Thanks for the advice. I am afraid I may have bigger issues than my initial problem. I have not been able to load Firefox 8. It will go through the initial steps, then stop, without completing the update. I will try again after i figure out how to get 8 loaded.
