I am running windows xp professional. I have had firefox for years. When I uploaded the latest upgrade, the program quit working. I have installed different versions, all with thesame result. The program refuses to stat when I click the icon on the latest version.

Most commonly, Firefox not starting after upgrading is related to your firewall/security software. You may need to delete Firefox from your allowed programs list in your firewall, allow the firewall to re-detect the new version of Firefox, and give it the permissions needed to connect to the internet.

NG....Firefox won't start even with no virus protection at all.
