Firefox keeps 'Resetting'

The place to ask for help or solve each others technical issues and discuss hardware

Ahoihoi,

I had a problem a while ago where all the bookmarks etc I had saved on Firefox got deleted every few days, and it changed my homepage to the original FF homepage. This stopped a couple of months ago, but today it's back. FF had deleted all my bookmarks, so I re-saved them all, and now it's just done it again. It's pretty annoying, I might go back to IE if this keeps happening.

Any Ideas?

Hum, not sure about that? Virus? Had a prob where FF wouldn't keep the cookies and I has to keep logging into forums each time, instead of it auto-logging in. Fixed it by clearing all the cookies and history, everything. That worked, but it doesn't sound similar to what your describing.

Flock may not help you ;)

Have you tried the new Firefox3 Release Candidate 2? I have been playing with it for a week or so and seems to be quite good...

yeah i know that but ive got firefox install now on my work puter since they stop support for netscape and its slowly buggered up with things like downloads not showing up in the manager and not being able download jpegs at all and many other little bits that have pee me off ,so i install flock on the laptop i have now and nothing has gone to cr@p yet ,i also have put this on my other puters around the house and up in auckland and sweet stable,"4 now "
was just a option really i was giving not a fix ,just wish netscape was still around to be used ...but still they use mod fire and explor anyway just it used them right with no problems
