Hi All
Since this morning I´m having trouble opening the Firefox browser, i.e. it doesn´t work. I usually always use Firefox, but today it just won´t start.
I already restarted my computer several times, did a system restore, re-installed Firefox via IE, etc., but so far without success.
Does anyone else have problems with Firefox today as well, or if not, does anyone have a suggestion for me what the problem could be and how to possibly fix it?

Firefox sent out an a update yesterday and your computer system might suppress the notification, and the entire thing is hovering and idling around in your system. You might also want to tell your firewall and consorts.

So, this is the last resort but will definitively do the trick.

PERSONA QUE INICIÓ LA HEBRA
for your suggestions and comments.
I couldn´t reply earlier as in the course of the day pretty much everything on my computer collapsed. Firefox was only the start of it this morning.
It seems like it was some sort of problem on the internet provider´s side. Or a combination of that and the Firefox update Nicole mentioned.
After 6 or 7 hours I was about to despair, and thought I had caught a virus on my computer, which luckily don´t seems to be the case.... See more for your suggestions and comments.

Things are slowly returning to normal. Thanks for your help anyway.
I wish you all a nice relaxing weekend, with not too much work ▲ Collapse
