What kind of problems do you have with Firefox that you want to remove Firefox?

I get the message about XPCOM when I try to open firefox. I uninstalled one version but the second version won't uninstall. I want to remove the non'working version, and then might download a replacement, as I don't want to rely on Chrome and Internet Explorer.
