Firefox crashes on certain links.

Firefox crashes when I try to visit certain links. The most recent are: http://cgi.ebay.com/Type-K-Thermocouple-block-Ceramic-Kiln-Probe-2372-F-11G-/110547742698?cmd=ViewItem&pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item19bd28afea and http://cgi.ebay.com/Type-K-Thermocouple-Ceramic-Kiln-2372F-High-Temperature-/110547743826?cmd=ViewItem&pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item19bd28b452
It also crashes when I do a google search for "korean raw beef". Even if I disable all of my add-ons I still crash. No crash report is generated. Please help. Someone always replies but when I try what they suggested and it didn't work I never get a second reply.

Nuxar,
I don't know what you mean by VPN/Proxy? Where do I go to change this?
What I did do after reading your reply was I went to:
Tools>Options>Advanced>Connection Settings. I found the proxy @ "Use System Proxy Settings" and changed it to each of the following NO PRXY and AUTOMATIC PROXY SETTINGS. This didn't help me I kept getting the same crash error as at first. Each time I tried to change the proxy setting I found that when I went back to check that it had defaulted back to "Use System Settings"
Any other suggestions?
Thanks Nuxar,
dycon

Firefox crashes on certain websites.

Recently, I had a malware/virus attack on my computer from XP Anti-Spyware. There were many pop-ups from XP Anti-Spyware. Then later I lost connectivity to the internet. I used Norton Security Scan to get rid of the malwares and viruses. After using the scan, my Internet Explorer and Mozilla Firefox Internet did not work. At first the pages wouldn't even load. Then we contacted a Norton Security, who tried to remotely go through my computer to try to fix the problem. The technician rebooted my computer, reseted my internet, and also tried to reinstall Mozilla (safe mode) and Internet Explore. Well we were able to get both internets up and running. Only problem is that Mozilla crashes will work for a minute and crash or when on a certain website it will crash suddenly. I'm able to get on Facebook without it crashing. But websites like Yahoo, or when I search on Google, the internet crashes. I was not able to get on my email through Mozilla, instead I had to go through Google Chrome. Can you please help me please. Also, I removed Norton Security System, to have more mobility online. Thanks.

Firefox crashes on certain websites without creating a log

When I do this google search: http://www.google.com/search?client=firefox-a&rls=org.mozilla%3Aen-US%3Aofficial&channel=s&hl=en&source=hp&q=korean+raw+beef&btnG=Google+Search Firefox immediately crashes and tells me that a crash report couldn't be generated. I'm fully updated and I don't think I have any offending plug ins.

Safari and Firefox crashing on certain websites

I'm having a new problem with my eMac. When I try to access some websites (a banking website; Playhouse Disney website) both Safari & Firefox browsers crash. This is not happening with my MacBook. I've tried running Disk Repair and installing Applejack but nothing changed. I then went into Safari<preferences<security<web content and unchecked the java related boxes. After doing this, the banking website is allowing me access again but both browsers are still crashing on the PlayhouseDisney website. Is this some sort of java conflict? How can I resolve this?
Please speak slowly and use small words, I was only able to do the above things by reading these boards!

M - I'm having a problem getting kicked out of Safari on my banking website. I spoke to AppleCare this AM - they said there's no fix for 10.3.9, and I either need to use Internet Explorer, or upgrade to 10.4.

Firefox crashes on certain site and even not send crash report.

Firefox crashing when loading certain websites

Hi All,
After updating my firefox to the latest version (3.6.12), the browser frequently crashes on cerain websites. In particular, when i visit www.scottishproperty.co.uk. I think it may be flash related but im not sure.
I have tried the following but it has not solved the issue:
1. Followed the artice on this site for firefox crashing on certain pages
2. Uninstalled firefox and reinstalled it
3. sent error reports to firefox - but when i go to About:crashes no reports are show.
Can anyone please advise?
When i try the same url in IE, it works as normal.

If you still have problems with crashes please
# read the article: [[firefox crashes]]
# if you have problems with crashes and are using Fireox's safe mode
#* please navigate to'' about:crashes''
#* post a couple of recent CrashIDs into your next message
Are you restricted to using Firefox in [[safe mode]] in order to prevent crashes?

Firefox crashes when hitting certain links from my online banking page. the signature ID for my crash report is:memcpy | netssort.dll@0x2aef

Firefox is running fine on most all pages. But when I am logged into my online banking page and try to go to certain links, firefox will crash. I have run a scan with antivir virus protection and made sure I have the most recent firefox browser. Any help is appreciated.

Thank you for clearing that up. I have another idea. There is a feature called accelerated scrolling in Firefox, however there are also modules that might be associated with malware. Options > Advanced > General > Smooth scrolling (uncheck this to test)
Sometimes a problem with Firefox may be a result of malware installed on your computer, that you may not be aware of.
You can try these free programs to scan for malware, which work with your existing antivirus software:

* [http://www.malwarebytes.org/products/malwarebytes_free/ MalwareBytes' Anti-Malware]

* [http://www.surfright.nl/en/hitmanpro/ Hitman Pro]
* [http://www.eset.com/us/online-scanner/ ESET Online Scanner]
[http://windows.microsoft.com/MSE Microsoft Security Essentials] is a good permanent antivirus for Windows 7/Vista/XP if you don't already have one. Windows 8 has antivirus [http://www.microsoft.com/security/pc-security/windows8.aspx#antivirus built-in] already.

Firefox crashes whenever I try to open a link from Facebook? I need somebody involved in the upgrade to help me, I don't want to go to a forum and post a question to a load of people when I have no idea if they are qualified to give me advice!

I updated Firefox to the latest release on 1/8/12. Now every time I click on a link to go to youtube, zynga or other links on Facebook, Firefox crashes. I would love to be able to go back to the Firefox I had before 1/8/12, but I cannot find out how to do that. I have almost zero knowledge of computer software and how it all works, the "error reports" and the mumbo=jumbo that people talk about on the "forums" mean nothing to me, I just want an edition of Firefox that works so I don't have to go back to using IE8.

I'm sorry, but simply posting links to pages full of technical information will do nothing to help me. For example, I have no idea what safe mode is, or how to achieve it. I need step-by-step instructions in the form of "an idiots guide to"......

2 issues: 1. Firefox crashes everytime I try to open QuickBooks online 2. When I click an email link on a web site, it opens a blank FF browser instead of an email program. Please advise.

2 issues:
1. Firefox crashes every time I try to open QuickBooks online. I have submitted numerous crash reports.
2. When I click an email link on a web site, it opens a blank FF browser instead of an email program. I have set the default to Microsoft Outlook and also tried changing it to Gmail. Each time I click an email link on any web site, however, it just opens up a blank page instead of one of my email programs.

I'm not clear on where you are seeing that text. When I view Google's cached page from the page found in this search
https://www.google.com/search?q=site%3Asitetrail.com%2Faskearth.com
It doesn't match yours exactly. There is an iframe with a Google map in it in the "Hosting Analysis" section, which in your pasted page seems to be the "Site Server" section.
Which Google site did you search?

Firefox crashes when clicked on link in instant messenger

So a friend on mine sends me a link in Win Live Messenger (the older version 2009) and when I click on it, Firefox crashes. Actually it doesn't crash and there is no crash report left behind but the menu-address-tab bar goes away and absolutely no content is shown. All I see is the orange Firefox button above-left and my Firefox skin's background. Only reasonable thing I can do is close the window.
However it doesn't always happen this way. It seems the problem only comes up when the browser is already open AND minimized. Everything is fine if the browser is not opened at all before clicking the link or if it's opened and maximized. The problem works the same way with all links, not relevant to the content type or the website.
My guess is the new Firefox doesn't like opening a new tab while it is minimized. No such problem with older versions of Firefox or any other browser.

try turning off hardware acceleration for the display driver.

Firefox crashes when I click an email link

When I click on an email link, like responding to a craigslist ad for example, firefox freezes then closes. I checked my mail applications and it's set to open thunderbird. I even changed it to have it ask me first, and it still crashes. Please help!

Hey crystalstorm,
Have you tried starting Firefox in Safe Mode? Hold down "shift" while Firefox is starting up. If the crash doesn't happen in Safe Mode, you should read [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]].
There is also a lot of useful stuff in the [[Firefox crashes]] Knowledge Base article. If you've recently upgraded, you might want to check out [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/latest-firefox-issues this article] as well.
Hopefully this helps!

Firefox crashes when accessign certain sections on Ebay

When going to ebay.com and accessing certain sections, "Selling Manager Pro Summary" in particular, Firefox crashes.
It does not crash on the main page, only on that particular section.
We have tried deleting history, cache and cookies and it was working OK for a while and then started to crash again.

Firefox crashes when I right click then click on "Send Link"

When I right click to send a link to the page I am on via Thunderbird, then click on 'Send Link' Firefox crashes. This is using Windows 7 home edition, on this computer. My first post was on another computer and I am using 7.0.1 on this one that crashes as described above.

1) You should update to Firefox 7.0.1
2) Please provide a crash id -> https://developer.mozilla.org/en/How_to_get_a_stacktrace_for_a_bug_report

Firefox crashes, even in safe mode, under certain circumstances.

I'm using up-to-date Ubuntu Linux, other details below.
Firefox crashes, in or out of safe mode, when I do any of the following:
* right click (crashes on-click);
* view flash media (crashes once plugin container opens);
* try to use any of the file/edit etc menus (crashes when i click somewhere in this area);
* open about:tabs or about:config (crashes when i hit enter after typing into url bar);
* when i try to edit anything in about:config (crashes when i right-click);
* open any bookmark from my bookmarks toolbar (on-click).
In case it's related, thunderbird crashes soon after startup, i.e. once the GUI has opened and it starts checking my IMAP folders for mail.
It appears that for most purposes firefox will work indefinitely unless I do something I've mentioned above.
The extensions I run include X-marks and downthemall, but there may be more - I don't appear to be able to check without crashing the program.

Unfortunately the linked crash report is empty (@ EMPTY: no crashing thread identified; corrupt dump) and doesn't include any data, so it is not possible to find the cause of the crash.
