Good evening,
I recently had my Mozilla Firefox automatically update itself and since this has happened I keep getting lines across my screens on a constant basis. Whenever I scroll, and not even quickly, the page will be full of lines. Sometimes it's temporary and then it'll go back to normal or it will be permanent. This is obviously causing issues for me at the moment and I'd like to know how it can be resolved.

Following an update of Firefox, when I display a web page the display will be normal for a page or two and then I will see straight lines extending to the bottom. A refresh will sometimes help but not eliminate the problem. I am a windows user and downloaded windows non-64 bit.

Firefox won't load at all. The file folders appear complete, but can't be sure. I have been unsuccessful trying to revert to an older version. I use W7. Everything seems to be all right.
This is a political attack, because I have had a lot of attacks for years, ALL of which strike my e-mail and political sites I go to - nothing else is touched. This is much more serious. I'm now using Chrome, which is very vulnerable.
However, this time, something hit Firefox. I can't load it. An antivirus, ClamWin, has the same problem. There may be others. This just happened today. MalwareBytes found nothing.
I know I could probably uninstall and reinstall, but I'd lose gobs of stuff that way.
What I want to do is repair the damage done to Firefox, so I can keep bookmarks, NoScript settings, etc.
Please help.
I have buttons to close, minimize, maximize are with intervals between each other. Ugly :/

Firefox Windows "Vanish" & Re-appear on Restart

This is a continuation of my previous problem report, which was archived WITHOUT A RESOLUTION.
I had a recurrence of the problem this morning. FF was using lots of CPU, so I cancelled it via the task manager. FF was not displaying the menu bar (to allow me to do a clean Exit); instead it was displaying "(not responding)". After FF terminated, I restarted it. I saw the (somewhat usual) "Embarrassing" screen. It told me that FF would start with 13 windows. But when FF started, it only had 12 windows; one that I needed was missing. So I did an Exit and a restart, and all 13 windows started.
Previously I had saved (and post-processed) many sessionstore.js, restore.js, sessionstore.bak, and recovery.bak files, and all had all of my windows. It is obvious from my experience this morning that FF knows that I have 13 windows.
My question is this - As no one can tell me why this is happening, is there anything I can do when the problem recurs to get diagnostic data from the running FF? I am a retired systems programmer who spend 25+ years working with iBM mainframe system dumps. Note that I ALWAYS run FF in safe mode.

We have used Firefox with our campground reservation system without any problems. On Saturday we started having problems. When I scroll down the page all I get is lines or a black screen. It takes a while for it to recover and catch up. I have tried with Google Chrome and no problem. Did Firefox have an update that causes this?

I couldn't connect to the internet. Received an error code 0xc0000142 "The application was unable to start correctly." After several tries I shut the computer down and rebooted. Same response. Firefox had been working fine earlier. Internet Explorer was working so I uninstalled Firefox and reinstalled. When installation reached about 75% completion the same error code window popped up. My only options were "search for a fix" or "close program". I clicked "close the program" and installation resumed and appeared to be complete, but it's not working. Tried this several times. Once when the window popped up I had the option of seeing the details. They read: "App crash Maintenanceservice.exe version 49.0.0.6103 time stamp 57dc3758. I installed the Revo Uninstaller. I used that tool to uninstall Firefox and then reinstalled. No go. Security Essentionals updated & scanned. Firewall is set to allow Firefox to penetrate. Malwarebytes scan found nothing malicious. I installed MS Safety Scanner and it found nothing. I've had problems with Adobe Flashplayer in the past so I uninstalled that. Ditto for Javascript so I disabled it. Any suggestions?

Why is Firefox needing two minutes for starting several radio streams?

Hello,
I have a new problem with several live web radio streams playing in a browser window. They only start playing about two minutes after opening the browser window. As far as I see it occurred after my update to windows 10 Version 1607 (anniversary update), or around that. Under "Ethernet" in the windows task manager I can see that there is an incoming web stream as soon as I open the window, but the sound is beginning much later. This is not only happening in Firefox, but also with Chrome and IE 11. But there is no delay in playing on MS Edge. So not sure if this is for Mozilla support, or Microsoft, or... . But as it occurred to me first on Firefox as my standard web browser,... ;-)
Also not all web radio streams have this problem, but several ones:
Streams from NDR (http://www.ndr.de/radio/index.html#). At least NDR2 and several other ones I tested. The visible "now playing" Information indicates that the stream seems to be permanently buffered, as I am hearing the last song, not the current one. Streams from HR (http://www.hr-online.de/website/static/streaming_popup/mp3streamer.jsp?client=hr3) are also affected..
Streams from WDR are working normal (http://www1.wdr.de/radio/player/radioplayer104~_layout-popupVersion.html), but obviously they are using another streaming format, as Ethernet traffic shows data bursts instead of a constant transmission.
So, any idea? Is there a "buffer value" i could adjust? Could not find anything via google about this special problem.
Thanks in advance.

I recently refreshed Firefox browser & found it had been taken over by Speedbit Search. When I have been using Google and then pressed the Home button to return to the Firefox homepage this was when I found Speedbit Search homepage. So I have been unable to access my Firefox bookmarks, passwords, history. I refreshed again and got back the Firefox homepage without the bookmarks and saved passwords, but I think Speedbit is still on the computer. Thank you, nick8000

On my Surface Pro 3, Windows build 1207, Firefox freezes up. This happens after about 45 seconds after Firefox loads. After about 10 minutes it may unfreeze for 30 to 45 seconds, then freeze up again. Microsoft spent over an hour trying to troubleshoot it. This only happens with Firefox, any other browsers don't have this issue. Please help me figure out how to resolve this. I am running the latest version of Firefox and this does not happen on any other computer.

I used to open the About Firefox dialog just to check if there is a new Firefox version released.
But lately the About Firefox dialog keeps telling me that it is up to date. Curiously I looked up google to find out the latest version of Firefox. It turns out I have been so far behind for the latest version (I was having 3x when the latest version was 4x).
I tried everything uninstalling Firefox then reinstalling it, Run as Administrator etc. It does nothing.
What could possibly went wrong with my Firefox? Please help me.
