Why does my internet browser keep shutting down when I open it?

I use the Mozilla Firefox browser. Lately when I open the internet browser it just shuts back down and I don't know why. I have AVG and a Naomi content filter, could either of these be the problem?

  1. I would uninstall Firefox and install it again. There could be a corrupt file associated with your Firefox browser right now. Good luck.
  2. yah! im using it too. it just does. sometimes my comp goes black or randomly shuts offf. if it happens constantly ask a tech. geek
  3. Try removing or resetting the homepage, and default any advanced settings. Hope this helps...
  4. best thig to do would be re-download it and re-install it. FireFox probably got corrupted somehow
  5. your computer is broken just get a new on (an apple laptop)
  6. Sounds like a trojan or malware. See if there's an update for the browser you're using as well.
  7. I'm not an expert, but something may be wrong with your computer. If I were you, I'd take this one to a professional. You MIGHT have a virus. But if your internet browser shuts down when you open it, how did you write this question?
  8. just unistall firefox and install it i another director d or e then it will work i promise u
  9. here are some options: 1. first thing you can try would be to simply, restart your computer.. a lot of times the processes in the background get messed up... this thing happened to me where firefox refused to open.. i simply restarted my computer and it worked... 2. you can try to uninstall and re-install firefox. that may fix some possible corrupt files, etc. 3. if you really think it's a virus. have it checked with house call.. just go to google.com and search for house call it's the first link. to a complete scan checking for malware, grayware, and viruses.. (more if you want) 4. if none of those help, go to download.com and find glaryutilities, it's a neat program that pretty much cleans out your computer so it will speed up the performance.. and it will also help it run smoother. good luck!
