302223 - Firefox freezes/crashes/doesn't start after update to latest (1.0.6)version

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Firefox :: General, defect)

Description

[BWD]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.1)
Build Identifier: FireFox 1.0.6 + Hungarian language pack

Evening.

After updating Firefox to 1.0.6 and letting it install as I always do, I 
clicked on the "yes", telling it to start it back up so I could resume my 
work. Aside from the updater itself not detecting that there was an update 
(another bug), what Firefox basically did is given to you in the URL in the 
form of a picture. It just refuses to start up, and instead, chooses to crash.

Please remedy this situation immediately, as I'm forced to use buggy old IE 
where I don't story my favorites anymore.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Get any Firefox
2.Update to 1.0.6
3.Try to initialize the newest (1.0.6) build, getting it to crash by itself.

Actual Results:  
Firefox crashed. Gave me a heavy error message, saying my work was lost.I 
tried uninstalling, reinstalling, uninstalling, rebooting and then 
installing...but nothing.

Expected Results:  
Started up like normal and worked?

Fullsoft.dll caused it to crash. Everything is on the URL field, provided in 
the form of a picture however.

Have you tried to startup in Firefox -safe-mode ?
( Window Start Menu -> Firefox -> Safe mode )

After I got the safe start mode for firefox tip, I uninstalled it VIA control
panel, installed it again doing nothing diffirently than before, and now I'm
using Firefox itself to write this, so it works...can someone explain to me what
that was?
