I am definitely not a techhie. But I have been using Firefox for years. I probably spend more time on Twitter than any single web site. For months, I have been having problems with script errors on twitter after posting a tweet. I've pretty much accepted this as a fact of life. I simply close the tab and open a new one. Well, as of yesterday, I can't even OPEN Twitter using Firefox. It completely locks my machine requiring a power-off reboot. This has happened at least a half dozen times in the past 24 hours. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling the lasted version of Firefox. Upon reinstalling, I went to Twitter and promptly crashed my PC again. I have no such problems with Blue Moon. I've run a virus scan and do not appear to have any issues at all.

Some of your crash reports weren’t sent to the Mozilla Servers.

In the address bar, type about:crashes<enter>. Note: If any reports do not have BP in front of the numbers/letters, click it to submit them.

The crash report is several pages of data. We need the report numbers to see the whole report.

Using your mouse, mark the most resent 7 - 10 crash reports, and copy them. Now go to the reply box below and paste them in.

Start Firefox in Safe Mode {web Link} by holding down the <Shift>
(Mac=Options) key, and then starting Firefox. Is the problem still there?
