Try booting in safe mode, and see if you still get the error. If you do, try redownloading and reinstalling it; something may have gotten corrupted.

If it doesn't give you the error in safe mode, that means one of the plugins (flash, QT, etc.) may be broken, so try turning those on/off untill you find out which is causing the error.

Sorry to go a bit off topic guys, but what exactly do add-ons do? And are they REALLY that useful? Can anyone recommend me some and maybe a brief description of what they are o.O?

 

They are little applications you can add to the browser to suit your needs. For example AdBlock Plus is a very important addon that everyone should have, as it blocks every type of ads. I also have one (gTranslate), thast allows me to highlight any text and translate it with Google Traductor. I also have NoScript, it blocks Javascript, hence it improves security, but it can be a bit troublesome because you have to allow manually Javascript for every site. My advice is that you go to the add-on site and browse a bit, you'll for sure find something you want.




All Firefox users should have Ad-Block Plus and No Script at this time.  They're quite simply amazing.

ad block tells me it's not compatible with fire fox 3.0

Or, if you want to support the sites you view for free, you could ignore Ad Block. NoScript will get rid of all the annoying ones anyways (like flash, etc), and any that require Javascript (a heck of a lot of them, as it turns out)

I personally run Download Statusbar, NoScript, and Foxmarks (synchronizes bookmarks across different computers). I wouldn't recommend having too many extensions either, because they can start to bog down the speed it runs at.

Words of Wisdom you should watch out what you write, some members have been banned for that lolz.

Well I notice it is faster that is all..






I am not 100% sure on windows, but try Tools -> Add-Ons, then the Plugins tab.
