Updated Firefox destroyed all Firefox!!
Update was from Firefox 8(Yahoo friendly) to Firefox 10. New update Fx-10 did not work. Tried Norton security setting adjustments, but no luck. Removed Fx-10 and reloaded Firefox 8. Now neither Fx works. Reconfigured Norton security back to original and removed all Firefox!! Internet Explorer was working fine all the time!! Now I'm back to IE and find it much more updated than Firefox!! Perhaps Firefox out foxed itself, eh??! Disappointed. Ref; This PC is of MS Windows 7.

-> Do a MALWARE check with these Malware Scanning programs. You need to scan with all programs because each program detects different malware. Make sure that you UPDATE each program to get the latest version of their Databases before doing a Scan. Also, Close All other Applications (softwares) before Starting to Run Scans.
