since the upgrade that changed my setting from Google to yahoo i have had problems with Firefox. when i try to open it it will give me an error code. the only way i can get it to open is to delete Firefox and completely reinstall it will then work for 2 to 3 days . I do not lose bookmarks but it will reset me to yahoo and i have to go in and reset it back to Google. this has happened about 15 time in the last month since the original upgrade. It also has started hanging on videos and some plane websites and all i can do is restart my computer an begin from square one. This is very annoying. I do not like internet explorer and do not use it except to reinstall Firefox and for some business websites that will not support Firefox

P.S. I hated it when you arbitrarily switched me to yahoo, It is like Microsoft switching me to Explorer

All 5 of those crashes are related to Adobe Flash "hang". Bug # 1157078 - currently being worked on

To lessen the chance of that type of crash happening, you should check for updated graphics drivers - yours appear to be quite old, from 2008. http://www.nvidia.com/Download/index.aspx?lang=en-us
