I can, however, use the mouse wheel or input from keyboard. I have installed 39.0 on two desktops (WIN 7) and one laptop (8.1) and removed and reinstalled three times before giving up. It appears to have problems with Adobe Shockwave and/or Adobe Flashplayer. It could also have a problem with Oracle's Java updates. All are 64 bit computers. I just reinstalled Firefox and tried to use the manual steps; it froze the browser 3 times before it finally worked

Start Firefox in Safe Mode {web Link} by holding down the <Shift>
(Mac Options)
key, and then starting Firefox. Is the problem still there?

I'm extremely sorry for the delay in responding.

I'm the sole officer of a burial society and I've just been swamped.

Thank you for your help.
