Firefox crashes on startup
I have a problem since this morning When i run mozilla i have to wait 5~6 seconds for something to happen (instead of half a second) but firefox still won't launch, instead a "safe mode of mozilla" window opens but closes instantly. how can I settle this problem?

EDIT: I uninstalled then reinstalled firefox. Firefox launches faster, but now a bigger window appears but closes even faster than last
Some problems occur when your Internet security program was set to trust the previous version of Firefox, but no longer recognizes your updated version as trusted. Now how to fix the problem: To allow Firefox to connect to the Internet again;
- Make sure your Internet security software is up-to-date (i.e. you are running the latest version).
- Remove Firefox from your program's list of trusted or recognized programs. For detailed instructions, see
Configure firewalls so that Firefox can access the Internet. {web link}
Start your Computer in safe mode with network support. Then start Firefox. Try Secure websites. Is the problem still there?

Boot the computer in Windows Safe Mode with network support to see if that has effect.
Firefox works well in safe mode with network, but still does not work in normal mode
This means something else on your system is the problem. As a test, disable your protection programs.
What is a protection program? The window firewall?
Firewall, anti-virus . . . .
I tried by disabling my firewall, it doesn't change anything. And I don't have an antivirus
