Chosen solution

Start Firefox in Safe Mode {web link}

A small dialog should appear. Click Start In Safe Mode (not Refresh). Is the problem still there?

What is the message?

Make sure the computer has Firefox as your default web browser.
If there is still a problem, try selecting Windows Internet Explorer as the default.
