Latest Version of Firefox with Win XP Pro SP 3
I have Windows XP Professional Service Pack 3 and I was wondering if it supports the latest version of Firefox and if it works well on it. I have not updated it since 3.6.28 because I didn't really like not the look and my mother was having all sorts of problems with his and Adobe. I recently lost my Norton Toolbar which was on top during the last update for 3.6 is released. I plan on upgrading soon and I was wondering if it would work on it. My moms comp its adobe crash there and its browser sometimes won't reopen after be closed.
Hi demonicvampiregirl,
Have you looked at the page system requirements for Firefox 11:
http://www.Mozilla.org/en-us/Firefox/11.0/system-requirements/
I think you'll be fine. It has some pretty significant performance on the 3.6 series so improvements.
Hope this helps!

It was a mistake to install IE8 before SP3. You have to uninstall it and go back to IE6!
It is quite possible that your SP3 download had corrupted. Delete and re-upload the file .exe from this page:It is the name of the file you need:WindowsXP-KB936929-SP3 - x 86 - ENU.exeSize: 316.4 MBValue of SHA1:c81472f7eeea2eca421e116cd4c03e2300ebfde4If you need a utility to determine the value of SHA1, I recommend HashCalc:Once you have confirmed that your installation of SP3 folder is perfect, THEN you can install it (preferably while physically disconnected from the Internet). You will first need to set up a clean boot:If you need the IE8 Setup file, you can download that from this page:Yet once, upgrade to SP3, first of all, THEN to update IE6 to IE8. :-) -
Latest version of Firefox does not work on Win 7 64 bit
Downloaded the latest version of Firefox and installed on my newly built computer Win 7 64 bit. When I click on the shortcut of Firefox, it absolutely nothing happens. No processes appear in the Task Manager, nothing. Googled the question and I tried many patches recommended without result. At a loss on how to fix, Firefox is unusable at this point.
In the case where the program files were damaged during installation, you can try:
Clean reinstall it
(A) download a fresh Installer for Firefox 41.0.1 of https://www.mozilla.org/firefox/all/ in an ideal location. (Scroll down your preferred language).
(B) delete the folder of the current program to:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox
(C) run the installer downloaded to (A). I'm NOT suggesting it as an administrator.
Any improvement?

I have Windows 7 family on a laptop. I just downloaded the latest version of Firefox (v25) and Google as default search engine. Any site I enter in Google, I get the message 'Not reliable' site. I typed in BBC, Firefox etc. The message is:
This connection is Untrusted
You asked Firefox to connect safely on www.google.com, but we cannot confirm that your connection is secure.
My virus checker is Norton.
I read that the support forum and my date and time are correct. I have IE and Chrome with Google like search engine by default and is not the message when you access the BBC, Firefox etc.
This is the first time that Firefox has been downloaded to the laptop.
Please someone has an idea what is causing the problem.
I had installed BrowserSafe. As soon as I uninstalled Firefox worked properly.
Thank you very much for the advice.

When the latest version of Firefox has been installed it gave me a message that the McAfee software was not compatible and so I have more protection against viruses. She added that when it became compatible I would be informed. I cannot afford to be without my virus protection and want to revert to an earlier version of Firefox.
I hope that the problem is that Firefox 5 is not compatible with some of the additional modules of McAfee. It will be rather worrying if she has a problem with McAfee security programs themselves. Please specify exactly what software and the version that you have problems with.
There are problems with McAfee Site Advisor /questions/839953 #answer - 205178 known but we hope McAfee that will resolve in a few weeks.

Since I have updated to the latest version of Firefox a few days every time I click on a link, or in a dialog (like this one) or try to pin something to Pinterest, a reading of google window opens. I have no new pluggi-ns and no Add-ons. I also scanned my cpu for viruses and none were found. What is originally this issue that drives me crazy, and how can it be solved?
To eliminate if it is a corrupt add on or plugin, please check if it happens in a new profile with just the pintrist on. This will tell you if it's a combination. Use the Profile Manager to create and delete profiles Firefox
Also sometimes an antivirus does not detect a virus that would be another. Sometimes a problem with Firefox can be a result of malware installed on your computer, you may not be aware of.
You can try these free programs to search for malicious software that work with your existing anti-virus software:
- Microsoft safety scanner
- MalwareBytes' Anti-Malware
- Anti-Rootkit utility - TDSSKiller
- AdwCleaner (for more information, see this other AdwCleaner download page)
- Hitman Pro
- ESET Online Scanner
Microsoft Security Essentials is a good permanent antivirus for Windows 7/Vista/XP, if you do not already have one.
