Firefox crashes every time I launch it making the program unopenable

At first firefox 4 was fine for about a couple of months then I notcied it crashing all the time, about 30% of the time I open a new tab or page it would crash.

Now when I opend firefox I get a crash report before the browser has even opened, even if I open a link in outlook it crashes right away. Perhaps it is openeing a page I had open that it just constantly crashes on or maybe the program crashes upon any open page, I am not sure.

Give me back firefox 3.0 :( (I was forced to post this using IE it is a sad day)

Reverting back to firefox 3.6 till they make firefox 4.0 more bug free.

It's a real shame to see a firefox release so unstable that we have to use another browser.

I have been a user of firefox for many years now for it's reliability and security with addons.

What you posted is not a crash report, but only some information about your setup.

If you have submitted Breakpad crash reports then post the IDs of one or more Breakpad crash reports (bp-xxxxxxxx-xxxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx).
You can find the IDs of the submitted crash reports on the about:crashes page.
You can open the about:crashes page via the location bar, like you open a website.
