Either that or upgrade to one of the Firefox 3 Betas: http://www.techspot.com/downloads/735-mozilla-firefox-alpha.html Nina, I suggest you make a clean install of Firefox using a previous version, 2.0.0.9 would be advisable.

I didn't catch that update. Anyways, v2.0.0.12pre is in the nightly build section, I tested the client and again the problem is still arising. Hopefully I'm just getting ahead of myself, the js3250.dll is still at v4.0.0.0, maybe the fault lies within the lower layers of Firefox. Ah, sorry about that. I didn’t catch that update.

Like you say the problem doesn't seem to be as widespread that Mozilla has taken weeks now without saying a thing about it. Hi Anthony,
