Can anyone tel me why Firefox is always crashing on me? I have run virus scans, adware scans and spyware scans and it is still crashing on me. What causes firefox to continously crash and what can I do to stop it from crashing on me? Your responses and tips would be greatly appreciated.

based from my experience, my firefox usually crashes when there are so many plug-ins and toolbars installed in it. Plug-ins and toolbars can make your firefox browser slow, resulting to some problems like crash. I suggest you remove unnecessary toolbars and plug-ins that you are not using. another suggestion, always update your browser for faster surfing. :))

well this may due to the add-ons .. first uninstall and disable all the add-ons . and then try to run fire-fox . or best you can do is run the firefox in safe mode which makes it run without the add-ons which may automatically solve the problems.
if you need any more help then you can try the mozilla help page at ..
