Is Roboform going to work with this latest "update"? Last update I lost use of RF and had to re-purchase in order to use! THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE!

I CANNOT lose Roboform....I consider it the MOST IMPORTANT "add-on" I use and will NOT update FF at the expense of losing RF! PLEASE! There are occasional unexpected FF crashes - and "report" is usually filed when this happens...just wish it didn't happen when I'm in the middle of something - like in the middle of a long video - yes, FF does recover - but I have to go through the entire video, etc. just to get back to where I was when crash occurred.

Otherwise, FF is indispensable...IMO far more dependable than IE - and at least I FEEL like I'm not being monitored with everything I do online..as an online 'activist' of sorts (thoroughly non-threatening though I be! :>)) I have NEVER liked the idea of being 'stared' at - and with IE it always seem to crash when I am on a Conservative website - or doing something really threatening like studying the Constitution!

Swarnava, it is the other way as it is Roboform 7.6.2 and newer that compatible with Firefox 8.0 and is best to use with Firefox without causing Firefox 8.0 to crash.

Also if you are getting crashes due to using a older version 7.6.1 and older (and cannot or will not update to 7.62 or newer) then you could try Firefox 8.0.1 from www.mozilla.com instead.

Tried RF 7.6.7 with FF 8.0.1, still crashes FF on startup and can't select safe mode, since it never gets that far.

Try updating to Firefox 9.0.1, which was released a few days ago.

Same result Firefox 9.0.1 and Roboform 7.6.7 still will not startup. I'm sure it's Roboform but that doesn't help get this to function. If I delete Roboform completely then Firefox 9.0.1 will run. But only if I delete Roboform completely, which means getting rid of all files it creates and uses.
