I received a notice to update Firefox, so I did. During installation, I received an error message stating "The procedure entry point GetLogicalProcessorInformation could not be located in the dynamic link and can no longer get into firefox at all. What do I do? I even uninstalled it, restarted my computer, and tried reinstalling it, and it still won't work. I'm also receiving a message that firefox.exe has encountered a problem. Please let me know how to proceed. Thank you.

hi nb-cp, this is currently a bug in firefox 36 which is affecting a small subset of XP users (apparently where some corruption of system files is going on). could you specify if you are using servicepack 2 or 3?

ok thanks, at the moment a downgrade to firefox 35.0.1 is probably the only way to work around that until mozilla can come forward with a fix for this bug: ftp://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/releases/35.0.1/win32/
