I downloaded and installed the latest version of Firefox earlier this week. Since then, everytime I open Yahoo mail on Firefox, I get a message from Windows (Vista, yuck) that my firewall program (Webroot) has closed. This is annoying, as you might imagine

This happened

Every time Firefox opened

== I installed the latest version of Firefox

Have you taken a look at Configure firewalls so that Firefox can access the Internet?
