Hello! Investigating a Firefox freeze in my wife's laptop I found two Firefox process : one without parameters and other with a bunch of parameters, (see image attached). I can stop the latter via taskmgr, but it starts itself any time Firefox is launched. This does not happen in my other computers (6 laptops in total of my entire family, which have been educated to use Firefox as main and only web browser :-), the difference between my wife's laptop and the rest is that she is running windows 32 bit meanwhile the others are running Windows 7 64bits, all with the latest Firefox version...

I'm afraid this could be a hijack or some type of malware, Please advice...


PS: It seems that there is a problem with the image upload process in this page, (keeps with a circled image and saying "Uploading "capturaffox.jpg" and nothing happens ), any other way to upload?

Meanwhile here a transcription of the command line process mentioned :

"C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe" -contentproc --channel="6804.5.1327534755\1180920347" -greomni "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\omni.ja" -appomni "C:\Program Files\Mozilla F...... (the rest of this command line is not showed by the task manager, too long for the display resolution)

The 'sick' computer;

Start Firefox in Safe Mode {web Link} by holding down the <Shift>
(Mac=Options)
key, and then starting Firefox. A small dialog should appear. Click Start In Safe Mode (not Refresh).

Is the problem still there?
