Firefox opens when I click on the icon. The FIREFOX icon appears in the toolbar and I cannot get it to open from there. I click on it and the browser is in the icon but I cannot get it to open fully. I have removed and installed 2 new installs and same problem. The only thing that has changed on my computer is I added a new monitor. IE does open correctly

In the process of cleaning my desk, I tipped my keyboard over. I had the browser window open to ESPN3 to a college football replay. My keyboard has a shortcut key to open new tabs. Unbeknownst to me at the time, the shortcut key was depressed over 150 times, opening up a new tab for each. In addition, each tab wanted to open up a new pop-up window of the game. I opened the task manager and shut the process down. Upon opening Firefox again, it automatically opened all of the tabs and windows up again before I could do anything. So...after shutting the process down again I restarted the computer. Lo and behold, the same thing happened upon start up. Soooo...shut the computer down. Same thing. Soooooooo...I uninstalled Firefox and reinstalled it. Same thing again. I'm at a loss. Please advise!

Firefox is really slow to open first tab, after that I can open as many tabs as I want instantly. Why won't the first tab open instantly?

Tried refresh, reinstall firefox, no anti-virus program, actually I have no programs, no plugins, no extensions. Added firefox to the windows firewall allowed through list (which I never did with my vista machine) Brand new i5 quad core 3.6khz computer with windows 8.1 All drivers are up to date. It did take 2 weeks to get windows 8.1 finally installed without locking up and having to reinstall for the fifteenth time by disabling all of Microsoft's built in spyware. It's been semi stable for 2 days now. When I install kaspersky av. it adds another couple minutes to firefox launch.
I was really excited about my new suppose to be faster computer but my 10 year old Q6600 2.4khz with vista is way faster and easier to use. I know I can't be the only one in the world to have this problem. I've been all over the internet and I see all the problems people are having with windows 8.1. I've got invitation to upgrade to windows 10 but that just locks up the computer again. Someone, anyone please HELP!

Firefox always immediately crashes on startup, giving a message popup box saying: "We're Sorry Firefox had a problem and crashed. We'll try to restore your tabs and windows when it restarts. To help us diagnose and fix the problem, you can send us a crash report." It then crashes again if I select Restart Firefox, and crashes even if I quit and restart it later.
I have uninstalled Mozilla multiple times with a clean removal and redownloaded and reinstalled and the same thing happens. Also persists even with numerous restarts between removal and reinstallation. Crash ID: bp-fc0e63cc-13b5-4657-995f-8dfa02150919 is one of these crashes.
Firefox used to work all the time every day; this started 4 days ago--no new installs of anything else.

Firefox will not load. I installed Kaspersky Internet Security and everything was working fine until it wasn't. I then uninstalled Kaspersky, but Firefox would still not load.
Since I love Firefox I restored my computer to a previous state and that fixed everything, so then I installed a different Kaspersky product and everything was perfect. Now the problem is back again.
I don't know if the problem is on Kaspersky side or Firefox, but I would prefer not to restore again and I have no more troubleshooting ideas.
Firefox starts in Windows safe mode. When I double click on the Firefox icon the mouse indicates FF is loading, but then it doesn't start. Chrome starts fine. Contacted Kaspersky, but their first troubleshooting tip did not work. Under Event viewer I can see crash details for Firefox, but I can't interpret them and I don't know if they are related to FF not loading.
I'm okay with unintelligible Firefox and then reinstalling, but I do not want to lose my bookmarks, themes, add-ons, etc.
Any ideas would be appreciated!
I've never had a Firefox account, but now I'm being asked to login every time I open Firefox. How can I get rid of this?
I just want Firefox to open my web page normally, but I keep getting the login page.

It has taken over as my search engine and won't let me get to Firefox and my Email! My windows home page doesn't come up at all, nothing is working as it did!!! What's going on? How do I fix it?

Downloaded the latest version of Firefox and installed it on my newly built Win 7 64 Bit workstation. When I click the Firefox shortcut, absolutely nothing happens. No processes show up in TaskManager, nothing. Have Googled the issue and tried many recommended fixes to no avail. At a loss as to how to resolve, Firefox is unusable at this point.

Please help! Firefox crashes on startup (get msg that "Firefox has stopped working"); cannot start in safe mode, and uninstalling and reinstalling the program did not help. (It had been working fine until I opened a document that used Dell Protected Workspace. There were automatic updates prior to the document opening, which is what I think caused the initial problem). Checking online for a solution to the problem does nothing. Details of the crash are:
