			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Okay, so I want to begin by stating that I am absolutely loyal to <a href="http://www.spreadfirefox.com/node&#038;id=214646&#038;t=331" target="_blank" title="Download Mozilla Firefox">Firefox</a> and would never ever speak against it, but occasionally as with any relationship, there are a few &#8220;glitches&#8221;&#8230; I believe these occasional &#8220;glitches&#8221; to be solely related to the recent upgrade to Firefox 3 due to the fact that I did not experience these problems with previous versions. (I am basically using all the same add-ons just new versions which further points to the upgrade to 3 being the problem&#8230;)</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Glitches include:</strong></li>
<li><em>Crashing on close or restart</em> &#8211; whenever an add-on update is applied and Firefox wants a restart or when closing the browser with many tabs open, I get the crash error message with option to send the info to Mozilla. I always do, they need that information!</li>
<li><em>Some sites just don&#8217;t work</em>: Since installing the current version of Firefox (v3.0.1) I have visited two different sites that just don&#8217;t work in Firefox! Dare I say it, they did work in IE 7. What is that about?</li>
</ul>
<p>So I <a href="http://www.twitter.com" target="_blank" title="Do you Twitter?">tweeted</a> about my issues and was replied to almost immediately by <a href="http://twitter.com/firefox_answers" target="_blank" title="Firefox Answers on Twitter">firefox_answers</a>. (a definite follow for Firefox users who <a href="http://www.twitter.com" target="_blank" title="Twitter">Twitter</a>)</p>
<p>firefox_answers told me that I needed to create a new Firefox profile. (Your Firefox profile is a folder full of files that sits on your hard drive that contains all of your personal information such as passwords, preferences, viewing history, add-on preferences, etc.) I have to be honest, when I first looked at the instructions, I was tempted to just deal with my issues <img src='http://anidandesign.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_razz.gif' alt=':P' class='wp-smiley' />  but after doing it, it really wasn&#8217;t that time consuming. So not taking away from Firefox, here are the links in order of what you should do to create, delete, or rename your Firefox profile.</p>
<ul>
<li><a href="http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Backing+up+your+information" target="_blank" title="Backing up your Firefox profile">Backing up your Firefox profile</a> &#8211; Instructions on backing up your Firefox profile</li>
<li><a href="http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Managing+profiles" target="_blank" title="Managing your Firefox Profile">Managing your Firefox Profile</a> &#8211; Learn how to create, delete, and rename your Firefox profile</li>
<li><a href="http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Recovering+important+data+from+an+old+profile" target="_blank" title="Recovering important data from an old Firefox profile">Recovering important data from an old Firefox profile</a> &#8211; Information regarding which files to transfer to your new profile from your old one</li>
</ul>
<p>To be honest, this did not fix my problem however I am not willing to disable ANY of my add-ons as I use every one of them and being that my add-ons are probably the cause, I will just continue to submit my crashes to Mozilla and install updates and maybe one of these days my issues go away&#8230; But if your add-ons aren&#8217;t that important to you or you are willing to take the time to enable each individual add-on to find the problem (i have <em>way</em> to many add-ons to do this) then this will probably fix any issues you may have with Firefox. Just follow the instructions on the <a href="http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Recovering+important+data+from+an+old+profile" target="_blank" title="Recovering important data from an old Firefox profile">Recovering important data from an old Firefox profile</a> link. Good luck!</p>
