You have downloaded a firefox which is a hoax firefox. delete your firefox and download a new version, 3.5.4 thats the latest. and get your firefox from a reputed site, should be from firefox.com website.

hey what is hoax firefox
i downloaded the version 3.0 from firefox.com website and a few days back i updated from the menu -> help-> check updates
after updating i'm facing this problem


myLot reputation of 73/100. mrfdg1972 (513)   ranked 2,610 out of 6,314 in internet  1 month ago

Its a Firefox which is not entirely firefox, i experienced this from my sister in law computer, what we did was downloaded Opera and from Opera we downloaded the Firefox Browser. The Latest Firefox update as for now is 3.5.5

Mozilla.com ---- download your New Firefox her, be sure to remove Firefox in your control panel before you download New Firefox 3.5.5 from Mozilla.com And also be sure that you still have another browsers available for downloading Firefox3.5.5 before you delete your old Firefox.

yes me too facing such problems,firefox fails to open some sites and also when i try to log in to some sites it just hangs up and i have to refresh it again and again and i clean cache and cookies all the time.new version is so poor.


chaithanya3050 (99)  1 month ago

did you find any solution for this problem
i'm thinking of downgrading the version
what do you say


myLot reputation of 94/100. rehan_andaman (790)   ranked 601 out of 6,314 in internet  1 month ago

yes you can,i also move down from firesox 3.5.3 to 3.5
3.5 is more stable than 3.5.3 but it also shows problem sometimes.


chaithanya3050 (99)  1 month ago

ok sure...thanks for you suggestion

Hi chaithanya3050

Some time it occurs . But I think It is not a problem but software related haphazard.

There may any other problem to your system too. May there be any problem in your internet service too.


chaithanya3050 (99)  1 month ago

if it is the problm related to internet service why is it happening for only some websites
if you want to test his opn www.sbi.co.in
and
from there go to personal banking page...
its only a example.


chaithanya3050 (99)  1 month ago

again after opening the site as i stated dont say its the problem with the wite server.
after jvm loads for any sites that use it firefox is hanging.


myLot reputation of 85/100. reeyan (640)  1 month ago

You should install JAVA environment. You will find it in filehippo .com.

More over that mozila fire fox is proxy server.

You can try another thing.

Uninstall firefox than reinstall it again. And see the result.


chaithanya3050 (99)  1 month ago

thanks for your suggestion


myLot reputation of 85/100. reeyan (640)  1 month ago

But do you get any result or not.

I am also facing the same problem but I think the problem is due to the huge number of plugins I am using. But I am pretty sure that JVM is also contributing to this as when I open web pages that are rich in JAVA, the browser hangs for a while.


chaithanya3050 (99)  1 month ago

but i'm not using any plugins...
so i think its not the problem with plugins
and i had a doubt regarding a thing
can you clarify?

does every browser uses a seperate jvm or they all use a single jvm?


myLot reputation of 38/100. amshugonchikar (153)  4 weeks ago

No, every browser uses the same JVM but in a different way. Every browser handles JVM in their own way.

I've got this strange problem with Firefox 3.5. When I click a file to download, nothing happens. Somehow the file downloads in the background and once it has finished downloading, then the save dialogue appears and asks me where I want to save the file and consequently downloads it instantly


chaithanya3050 (99)  4 weeks ago

me too experiencing the same pblm
update to 3.5.5
i think it may help you as my problems got solved after updating

I had a similar problem too.. It was when I updated my firefox version.. I had to reinstall firefox then.. I think there may be some bugs in the latest version...


chaithanya3050 (99)  4 weeks ago

do you have 3.5.5 version or 3.5.4?

 
8. myLot reputation of 92/100. eshaan (2471)   ranked 78 out of 6,314 in internet   3 weeks ago

I am using firefox but dont know whether its latest version or not..but I have no problem....maybe you dont have installed some feature on your pc and that would be causing problem for you...so try to figure out exactly where the problem lies...
