Writing Updates: No Proper Word - Dressed Up

ARGH!!I updated my fire fox and now it doesn’t work. I haven’t used IE in so long and now I have too because I can’t get FF to work at all. I’m so annoyed I don’t even feel like writing! And now I don’t even feel like being on the computer. I can try and get through it later today. There was some stuff ( Read more... )

What happened to fire fox? Did you install the latest version before adding any add ons? I never update it because windows is a pain and gets in the way of firefox so I just dl the latest and install over it so it carries over my bookmarks. You should reinstall and allow firefox to clean the registry of its old entries (the windows that says "a little house keeping" when you start it up.) You can also check to see if the js file is there, maybe it's missing or corrupt.

Dunno. ;_; I just installe dhte latest version, I don't generally get add-ons? I uninstalled all of it and reinstalled to see if that would work. But the same thing happened. Where would I get the js file if it isn't there and how do I find if it *is* there? D:

To see if the file is there follow the folder path from the C, the same folders that are in the error message. What kind of firewall are you using? It might be interfering with the installation.

If the file is missing you can download mine: http://www.sendspace.com/file/a0ceqg

Okay. I'll try that. ;_; (what a pain XD)
Windows...fire wall? Whatever one came with my computer. But I went to the firefox site and went through the firewall help thing they had. As it was the first suggestion they had. D: But that didn't seem to work.

Are you using Vista? It can be really unfriendly, especially to open source, it's like Microsoft is finally getting a bit too bitter about IE being left behind, but even the W3C is leaving it behind, or rather it's no longer so tolerant to it. Let me know if that helps any. You might also want to try the Add and Remove Programs icon from the Control Panel to clean out the old Firefox completely before reinstalling. There might be a problem with the registry, do you have a registry repair program? Some anti-viruses come with them.
