I am using Windows XP SP 3 and Firefox version 8.0. Whenever i upload a file via any "browse file" input field, the firefox stops responsing. Then i just remove firefox.exe from task manager and disable my LAN connection. When Firefox.exe is removed, then i again try uploading file, and then second time file gets upload without error again.

This occurs Once on every pc boot, why??

Make a new profile via START > RUN > "firefox.exe -p"in the input box, then make a new profile, and see if it has the same problem.

If not, then it may be an addon or something that's the issue. You could try disabling anny addons temporarily, then seeing if it solves it. Enable them 1 by 1, to see what is causing the issue if any. If that doesn't work try uninstalling/resinstalling Firefox.
