When I click on "attach file" or "upload file" I always get a message...."Firefox is not responding". Then I have to close the program and open Internet Explorer. I would prefer using Firefox,can you tell me how to fix this problem?

Firefox 30 will not upload or download any files. This happened all of a sudden. I have done everything to troubleshoot from ad ons to virus scan and reset Firefox. IE works OK...so I know it's a Firefox issue.

I uninstalled Firefox, deleted all data, reinstalled and still have the same problem. I guess I'll go back to Internet Explorer.

Make sure that your security software isn't causing these issue in case they scan the file before allowing the uploading or otherwise block the files.

Boot the computer in Windows Safe mode with network support (press F8 on the boot screen) as a test to see if that helps.

Did you check the advanced settings for Firefox your security software (firewall, anti-virus)?

Did you try uninstall, click delete all data, then re-install? That worked for me. I have 29 though. I had tried the safe mode, blah blah blah that the techs told me to try.
