Firefox Support Forum

I am using Windows 98 on an old computer. I have been using Firefox 2.0.0.20. I get frequent "Unresponsive Script" error messages. In the past I extended the time but I am back to getting numerous of these errors. What can I do to fix this? If I should go to a later version, which should it be and where do I get the download? If I do go to a later version, do I need to delete the oldversion first? Also, will my Bookmarks be saved?

I cannot open my firefox. It attempts to open but just stops. I had tried to copy the files to a flash drive to load it on my laptop because internet explorer was not working. Now on my desktop the Firefox will not open. What should I do?

Recently, I keep receiving notice of "Hard Disk is Full - You have run out of disk space on drive C. To free space on this drive by deleting old or unnecessary files, click Disk Clean-up". But after I removed a substantial sizes of files to another drive, in a short while, the notice reappear again. I was puzzled and take a check on the files and folders in drive C and realized the problem came from those unknown files in the folder named Cache.Trash (not the normal Cache folder although they are located side by side). Some files sizes are shockingly large ranging from 2GB to 5GB. They have strange and difficult to identify File Name and File Types. When I checked the Properties of those files, they have unknown MS-DOS name, Created, Modified and Accessed dates. When I tried to delete those files directly, a notice of "Error Deleting File: Cannot delete file: File system error (1026)" appeared. Note: There are still many Free Space available in other disk drives. Any idea please?

Sharebuilder recently "udated" their web site and now won't let me log on unless I "upgrade" to a newer version of Firefox. A note on the force to upgrade screen says I need 128 bit SSL.

I'm running Firefox 2.0.0.20 with Win 98 on an HP Pavilion.

I don't want to try installing Firefox 3.17 or 4.01 if they don't support Windows 98SE. I can't seem to find any minimum system requirements for these newer versions.

Going to a state sponsored site I see a link (underlined and in blue), but scrolling over it while in Firefox does nothing. Clicking on the link also does nothing. Changing browsers to IE, I then go to the same site and scrolling over link changes cursor. Clicking on the link opens a new page. The link's address is an .aspx file. How can I fix Firefox to view this link.

I am trying to upgrade from Firefox version 1.5 on a Windows 98 desktop computer. My system will not accept the Firefox 4.0 upgrade. I downloaded the 3.6.17 upgrade setup.exe and ran it. It unpacked 100% then dsplayed an error message "Program has performed an illegal operation" The Detail button displayed "Setup caused an invalid page fault in module Setup.exe at 017f.0040351e.

Need to know if Firefox Profiles are and will remain generic in current and future updates where if currently used in Windows 7 can also be used in Windows XP? Profiles means bookmarks, account settings, etc.

Earlier versions of Firefox, such as 2.0, would change the color of the URL or website address from white to yellow when it went from an unsecured website (http) to a secured website (https). Although my eyesight has been getting worse, this feature made it very easy to glance at the address & know I was on a secure website. Firefox 3.6 does not make such a color change. I would greatly appreciate it someone would tell me how to configure Firefox 3.6 to act like 2.0 in this matter.
