Since firefox upgraded to the latest version I have not been able to use it without it crashing and repeatedly giving me this error message"Exc in ev handl: TypeError: this.annotatePage is not a function' " What can I do about this?
The box that the above message is contained in has heading [JavaScript Application] I am at my wit's end with this. Firefox won't even open now and I am also getting this error message "Exc in ev handl: Error: Bad NPObject as private data!" Also in a box with [JavaScript Application] as a heading.

It appears McAfee Site Advisor is conflicting with several other Firefox Add-ons, causing this error message. McAfee Site Advisor has been causing problems in Firefox for some time. You can disable McAfee Site Advisor and test. Disabling Site Advisor should not affect the functioning of McAfee; you should still be protected. See the information below about a built-in function in Firefox that is similar to the function of Site Advisor.

McAfee Site Advisor is installed, but NOT enabled and it has never been enabled. I can't even find anywhere to enable it if I wanted to. I tried turning off the firewall in McAfee to see if that would stop any conflicts between McAfee and FF. However, FF is still crashing when I start it and it is now giving me this error message "Exc in ev handl: Error: Bad NPObject as private data!" under the heading of [JavaScript Application] Now what?
Have you tried disabling it in Add-ons > Extensions?
