Firefox 3 crashes

from Stardock Forums

Hi,

 

I have an issue with WindowBlinds 6 and Firefox 3 (3.0.6).  I'm running Windows Vista Home Premium.  The problem is simply that on most occasions when I move the mouse cursor reasonably close to the top right hand corner of the Firefox window (eg to type in the Google search box or click the close button) Firefox crashes.  This doesn't occur if Windowblinds hasn't been loaded.

Here is my system information:

Your computer has a Windows Experience Index base score of 5.5

WindowBlinds version : WindowBlinds 6.3 (build 112 x86 - Vista Edition)

WindowBlinds is installed correctly on this PC

No, nview isn't on.  Your post prompted me to download and install the nvidia driver that was sitting on Windows Update - didn't make any difference, unfortunately.

I am having no problems with FF3 on XP SP3. maybe something has gotten corrupt when or since you updated FF.

some sort of corruption, incorrect settings, or conflicting software is usually the culprit when a problem is isolated to one system.

try uninstalling and reinstalling FF, or you may have to do the same with WB.
