Firefox crashed, reinstall didn't help (but IE works?)
Hi, all of a sudden my FF crashed and won't open. I keep getting the crash reporter. I uninstalled and downloaded a new copy - same problem. It won't even create a troubleshooter file.
I have Panda antivirus software (free) and that just stopped working too. FF fix, or is this maybe a virus?

So removing the viruses resolved the issue?

First off, can you please let us know which operating system you are using? The support details attached to you question show that you are running Windows 7. Is that correct?
If there are other issues on your system (especially with your antivirus software), this could be a sign that your system has an infection. Sometimes a problem with Firefox may be a result of malware installed on your computer, that you may not be aware of.
You can try these free programs to scan for malware, which work with your existing antivirus software:
- Microsoft Safety Scanner
- MalwareBytes' Anti-Malware
- Anti-Rootkit Utility - TDSSKiller
- AdwCleaner (for more info, see this alternate AdwCleaner download page)
- Hitman Pro
- ESET Online Scanner
Microsoft Security Essentials is a good permanent antivirus for Windows 7/Vista/XP if you don't already have one. Windows 8 has antivirus built-in already.
Further information can be found in the Troubleshoot Firefox issues caused by malware article.
