Is anyone looking into this? I found an article that told me to remove some cash files and it seemed to fix the issue but it continues to reoccur. Some apps such as MS360 Outlook seem to trigger it, but if it was truly just a corrupt cache issue then cleaning the cash/profile once should have fixed the issue. Instead its become a constant pain in the *** and I'm tempted to find another browser. Seems very recent as well as I've never had issues with firefox before.
