Firefox keeps crashing when I try and view the anyone seen any good films lately, as far as I can tell it's only doing it on that page, anyone else having the same problems?

[Paul B]

I just opened that thread without issue.

Try google chrome - much better than firefox

[butters]

Which version are you running? The latest version is 3.6.6 and there has been a new version of Flash (and something else which is probably important) released in the last few days.

[superfurrymonkey]

The latest one, it did say flash was out of date or java, but it was after updating that it started playing up. I'm giving chrome a go now as it seems a lot of people are having problems with FF these days.

[Bubba]

FF ok with that topic here. It may be an extension you're using?

[GCW]

May be worth doing a virus scan whilst you're at it.

[superfurrymonkey]

I've not installed any new extensions for a long time, in fact I'd say I'm running less on this installation, I might try disabling them if I get bored of chrome.

[slackline]

If you're being told under FF that Flash and/or Java are out of date its perhaps worth updating them. 

[superfurrymonkey]

I'm not that daft  I did all the updating it wanted and it's still playing up.

[slackline]

Ok, apologies, just hadn't come through in this thread.

[superfurrymonkey]

I wasn't offended or laughing at you, I put the laugh in to say I wasn't offended if that makes sense

I only just found this thread, but experienced exactly the same problem. Firefox would just freeze on certain websites.

I downloaded google chrome, uninstalled firefox and then reinstalled it (i couldn't use chrome to access the uni-computers remotely). Now firefox works absolutely fine 

[williamgray]

latest versions of firefox are quite unstable so may be you are encountering some problems.
try using some other browser.

[Fiend]

Good idea. I quite like "Internet Explorer" by "Microsoft". Never had any problems with that 

[Jaspersharpe]

Nice one Fiend. I hadn't heard of that but it turns out that even the government use it so it must be good:

Not sure about "IE8" though. I think I'll play it safe and go for version 6.

You kids are so behind the times, Netscape Communicator 4.5 is where it's at - you can synchronise bookmarks and everything... word

Average home users don't use underground software like Internet Explorer, there's like no software support or nothin'. You wanna get a browser by one of these bigger companies like Apricot...

[tomtom]

I used Mosaic back in 1993.....

[Darrelweber]

firefox is quite unstable browser.
you can switch to google chrome.

Thank you for your permission Mr Schmidt...

[Jaspersharpe]

Or why not browse using Safari on your iphone?

[GCW]

Why is this turning into a battle of the Browser Spammers?

[rodma]

It'd be good if there was a way of making Bill Gates pay UKB £1,000,000 every time someone spams the forum on his behalf.
