Firefox and Vista Issues
Hello ...
I have two questions and would really appreciate some advice. (1) Could someone tell me whether I should be using an older version of Firefox (if one is still available) since I have Vista?
I have numerous issues with the latest version of Firefox, and have had issues with some of the other more recent versions: the web page freezes, Firefox crashes multiple times, pages are held up when loading (sometimes for quite a while), I get messages about scripts running, the system runs slowly, et cetera.
I am wondering if perhaps the newer versions/updates of Firefox are not compatible with Vista? Should I be using an earlier version?
(2) Right now, I am receiving a message saying "Error loading player. No playable sources found" when I try to view a web cam on Firefox. This is a web site and web cam that I have used daily for months with no problem. I do have Flash Player installed (at least, I think it is still installed. It does show up in my list of programs on my computer). Do I need some sort of plug-in?
Thank you very much for any advice or information.

so for your first question you can do the following steps they will probably help you to resolve your problem:
- Enter about:crashes in the Firefox address bar and press Enter. A Submitted Crash Reports list will appear, similar to the one shown below.
- Copy the 5 most recent Report IDs that start with bp- and then go back to your forum question and paste those IDs into the "Post a Reply" box.
Note: If a recent Report ID does not start with bp- click on it to submit the report.
note: it is advisable not to take screenshots you Copy that ID's instead of taking screenshots.
The answer to your second question:
As to updating Firefox, you can have the browser do it by bringing up the toolbar, select Help, then About Firefox.
