Index of file:///C:/Program Files/Mozilla Firefox/

Acer aspire 5735 laptop : windows vista : 32bit operating system
Every time i run Firefox and go to a different page i get an error saying Index of file:///C:/Program Files/Mozilla Firefox/
and eventually after about 10 minutes or so it crashes my computer and gives me the blue screen i restored my computer to factory settings and this issue is still happening

Also do a malware check with some malware scanning programs on the Windows computer.<br />
You need to scan with all programs because each program detects different malware.<br />
Make sure that you update each program to get the latest version of their databases before doing a scan.<br /><br />

    Hello Susanne.
    You may be having a problem with some Firefox add-on that is hindering your Firefox's normal behavior. Have you tried disabling all add-ons (just to check), to see if Firefox goes back to normal?
    Whenever you have a problem with Firefox, whatever it is, you should make sure it's not coming from one of your installed add-ons, be it an extension, a theme or a plugin. To do that easily and cleanly, run Firefox in [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Safe+Mode safe mode] and select ''Disable all add-ons''. If the problem disappears, you know it's from an add-on. Disable them all in normal mode, and enable them one at a time until you find the source of the problem. See [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes this article] for information about troubleshooting extensions and theme. You can troubleshoot plugins the same way.
    If you want support for one of your add-ons, you'll need to contact its author.

  • Every time I open a tab i get several tab that open up one after another all labeled Index of file:///C:/Program Files (x86)/Mozilla Firefox/

    When I open Mozilla Foxfire I get several tabs that automatically each heading is (Index of file:///C:/Program Files (x86)/Mozilla Firefox/) then shows all file in Mozilla installation Dir. This is the address in the address bar (file:///C:/Program%20Files%20%28x86%29/Mozilla%20Firefox/). My home page is set for MSN.com

    If you get a program called malware bytes it blocks that window from popping up. Hope that helps :)

  • Firefox keeps loading multiple tabs of: Index of file:///c:program files/mozilla then eventually crashes

    Firefox keeps loading multiple tabs of: Index of file:///c:program files/mozilla
    Here are the details:
    I start Firefox (6.0.2.4262) (I'm running version 6 due to compatibility issues with my online college having problems uploading files with FF version 7 or 8)
    I enter a web address (i.e. www.yahoo.com) and as soon as the page begins to load I have multiple tabs and windows opening.
    When I attempt to close one of the windows it gives the warning I am try to close "22 tabs" - yep... 22 tabs.
    If I allow FF to keep loading all the tabs, etc., about a minute later it will crash. The submit a crash window appears.
    I have all extensions and add-ons disabled.
    I even uninstalled Java, Flash, and several other programs in hopes that the problem would stop.
    In addition, I ran a malwarebytes scan and an Avira virus scan which both came up clean. I also used CCleaner to wipe out history and clean the registry. I even made hidden files visible and deleted the Mozilla install folders under my user name.
    So, then in hopes of searching for some answers on the Mozilla forums I started up the horrible Internet Explorer and also get a million different pages loading of the preset homepage of "msn.com", which also crashes
    (I apologize for starting and using IE, but I was limited on resources to check the internet for info)
    If anyone can offer some assistance, or advice on this issue I would greatly appreciate it.
    I am also using:
    Windows 7 Ultimate
    SP1
    Thank you,
    Biff

    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).

    Please do the following.<br><br>
    #Go to [http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/fx/?ref=logo Download Firefox 5.0.1] and download the installation file to your desktop. If necessary, download it using Internet Explorer, but in that event, choose "'''Save'''" when you see the prompt and save it to the desktop. ''Do not choose "Run"''. <br><br>
    #Then go to Add/Remove Programs, scroll down to "Mozilla Firefox" and remove it, choosing to keep your bookmarks, customizations etc., (''don't checkmark the box'').<br><br>
    #Then reboot and delete the folder called "Mozilla Firefox" at this location: C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox<br><br>
    #Finally run the installation file you downloaded to the desktop earlier.<br>
    Your bookmarks, customizations etc., are maintained in a different location and will become available to you again once you complete the installation.<br><br>
    As a precaution, make a backup of your Bookmarks as follows:<br><br>
    #Press CTRL+SHIFT+B to open the Bookmarks Manager.<br><br>
    #Click the link to '''Import and Backup '''and then click '''Export HTML '''and save the file somewhere.
    You can use this file at any time to restore your bookmarks should that prove to be necessary. Simply reverse the procedure and choose "Import HTML" instead.
    N.B. If you use a download accelerator, disable it before you attempt to download Firefox. These utilities are a frequent cause of extraction failures.
    If this suggestion resolves the problem for you, please click the '''Solved it''' button next to this post after you log in into the forum. This will help others searching for a solution to the same problem.
    Thanks.

  • I upgraded to Firefox 8. Now my home page says this: "Firefox can't find the file at jar:file:///C:/Program Files (x86)/Mozilla Firefox/omni.jar!/browserconfig.properties.

    Try the Firefox SafeMode to see how it works there. <br />
    ''A troubleshooting mode, which disables most Add-ons.'' <br />
    ''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default Theme.)''
    * You can open the Firefox 4/5/6/7 SafeMode by holding the '''Shft''' key when you use the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
    * Or use the Help menu item, click on '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' while Firefox is running. <br />
    ''Don't select anything right now, just use "Continue in SafeMode."''
    ''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before using the Firefox shortcut (without the Shft key) to open it again.''
    If it is good in the Firefox SafeMode, your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. <br />

  • When I open Firefox I receive the following message on the open tab: jar:file:///C:/Program Files/Mozilla Firefox/chrome/en-US.jar!/locale/branding/browserconfig.properties.

    I have been slowly loading more plugins and extensions for Firefox, as I found that I had a conflict and Firefox would freeze. Two (2) days ago I used Firefox Sync for the first time. After I rebooted my computer, I found that when I opened Firefox I receive this message "jar:file:///C:/Program Files/Mozilla Firefox/chrome/en-US.jar!/locale/branding/browserconfig.properties."
    I use Speed Dial as my home page and at the same time I received this message, Speed Dial stopped working, unless I click on the "open a new tab" button.
    I opened the container for the file listed above, and I show that the file is in the folder.
    I tried reinstalling Firefox in case there was a corrupt setting, however it hasn't helped
