this website causes Firefox 3.6.2 to shut down after moving around on maps after several minutes. The box that appears prior to all windows closing indicates an illegal operation occurred.

Start Firefox in Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot Mode to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).

I am totally in fear of doing anything in "safe mode" I want help that doesn't sacrifice my computer. I'm feeling vibes that I should just live with my browser lockups.

If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.

  • Use "Disable all add-ons" on the Safe mode start window to disable all extensions.
  • Close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")
