When I open mozilla and start to open another page by typing in the address line after one key stroke it locks up. If I restart it the same thing happens...

If I open explorer it does not happen..

I downloaded mozilla again and installed but the same thing happens..

Thanks

It is possible that your security software (firewall, anti-virus) blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.

Remove all rules for Firefox and the plugin-container from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full, unrestricted, access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.
