Firefox will not start, I've tried opening in safe mode, no joy. I get the firefox.exe application error 0x00000000

This happened

Every time Firefox opened

Possibly after a windows update

User Agent

Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 7.0; Windows NT 5.1; YPC 3.2.0; .NET CLR 1.1.4322; InfoPath.1)

Do a clean reinstall and download a fresh Firefox copy from http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/all.html and save the file to the desktop. Uninstall your current Firefox version and remove the Firefox program folder before installing that copy of the Firefox installer. It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling. .....
