Firefox crashes on the youtube homepage

Whenever I try to raise to youtube.com, I get the spinning wheel of death, and firefox is not responding. This happens ONLY on the homepage. If I go to video pages, they play very well.

This happens on other websites as well. If this happens on a given site, it ALWAYS happens on the same site, but I don't know what these sites have in common. Maybe ads?

I've removed all the Add-ons, given to zero/refreshed and re-installed firefox, always have this problem. It is only with firefox.

Any thoughts?

See you soon

  • 25.0 Firefox crashes, unless the mouse is moving

    25.0 Firefox crashes, unless the mouse is moving

    People from bad news. While this problem is certainly wrong with 25 and 25.0.1, I also saw him on 24 on Windows 7 after downgrading from 25. The behavior on 24 is quite erratic (a YouTube may play very well once but freeze on the replay), but it's still there intermittently. I've ever seen before moving to 25 so my suspicion is that some of the damage by the upgrade (perhaps entries from registry or links to flash drive) which cannot simply be cancelled by the resettlement of 24.

  • 36.0.1 under Windows 7 Firefox crashes on the first click, can't kill processes

    After the 36.0.1 on a Windows 7 computer, Firefox crashes after the first click on a link or when you try to open a new tab. I can't kill the process from the Task Manager. Need to reboot to get rid of the process.

    My attempts to solve the problem so far:
    Uninstalled Firefox & my anti-virus program, removed Mozilla dirs Program Files and AppData and cleaned the registry. Then reinstalled Firefox after the restart, still hangs on the first click on a link. Even impossible to kill the process, help to only to restart.

    I tried on another Windows user; does not help. Still the same symptoms.

    PS: Related to this thread: http://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1051108

    Thank you for your support. Given the quick succession of versions of Firefox, I just waited out 37. My problem is over now.

  • Firefox crashes when the flash is used.

    Firefox crashes when the flash is used at all.
    I've checked everything and it is only with flash 10.1.53.64 on the tree

    == a site using flash is open

    I use Windows 7 and I have the same problem. When I went to 3.6.4, Firefox would be to lock up whenever I tried to play any flash video. I have tried several sites and it would lock up every time I have to close by the Task Manager. I've updated the Flash Player and even tried uninstalling and reinstalling, nothing could solve this problem.

    I read that they supposedly separated the plugins like flash in a separate procedure to keep firefox crash if flash does, but apparently they didn't do this right. I had to go back to Firefox 3.6.3 worm and flash works without any problem in this version. Seems that firefox must correct 3.6.4 since it seems he's messed up video flash for many users, if not most. It is useless if it can't play flash since almost all Web sites use this format!

  • Firefox crashes at the start even in safe mode

    Firefox crashes and makes internet Explorer and also chromium at startup. Chrome works however after reintallation, but may break after a reboot.
    It was produced after an update of the anti-virus (avast and avg) both demanded a restart of the computer.
    I turned off the antivirus and reinstalled the browser (latest version), but it still crashes.

    I think I solved the problem!

    It seems to be the new version of "protection avg: zen ', it is to play with all web browsers, is not search for viruses, closes the network connection and not to repair...
    So I removed it and everything seems to work normally...

    Should have known that avg was problem since all the headaches began after its update.

    Thanks for all the help!

  • 40.0.2 Firefox crashes at the opening.

    Have tried a new installation on several computers Windows 7 Enterprise. All crash instances 40.0.2 Firefox on opening the program. Only solution is to save the version 39 rev and tell him no to automatic update.

You can submit these data to Mozilla and share with the volunteers of the forum to see if it points to the solution.

    All these reports of incidents and dozens of others are what I have experienced in the last days of Firefox crashing. It has gotten to the point now that I'm almost about to give up the use of Firefox.

    Please, if there is someone who can help out me as soon as possible, I need to know what is happening.

    I did reset Firefox, I made the Mode safe mode with Firefox, I even uninstalled and reinstalled Firefox. This... just... continues... THAT PAST! Same deal with Java se, I uninstalled, reinstalled and tried to go even with an older version. This... just... continues... THAT PAST!

    Whenever I go to a website to use Java as Facebook, it keeps going on and has been frustrating to no end.

    Please, if anyone can understand this point as soon as possible, I really appreciate this, but I am now at my wits end and I need to use this instead of Chrome or any other browser since I am looking for a job.
