Firefox will not start at all. What do I do?

Firefox will not start at all. A few minutes ago, I had the main Firefox window and Chatzilla open. I closed FF and kept CZ open, then tried to reopen a FF window by double-clicking the shortcut on my desktop. It didn't do anything - I got a loading icon for a moment, then it cuts off. I closed CZ and tried again, and had the same thing. This continued. However, I can still access IE, so it's unlikely to be a virus (most viruses would be more likely to attack IE). How can I fix this?

This happened

Not sure how often

Explained above.
