    Why does Firefox crash every time I use Google search?

    Don't know Elizabeth, mine doesn't.

    Sorry I can't help.

          Look in Help - About Firefox to get the version number.

            Click on HELP -> ABOUT FIREFOX
            The most recent version is 7.0.1
            If you are using an older version it might be a good idea to update.
            Have you got many ADDONs (TOOLS -> ADDONS) - if you have maybe disable them temporarily to see whether you still get the same crashing problem.

                  What is always doing updates? Do you mean Windows updates rather than Firefox updates?

                    .. and which version are you using Mandy!
                    Having just checked our system it appears that you also need to update Firefox! ;)

                      I'm afraid I'm an ignoramus when it comes to this, Elaine.

                      It says there are no updates available, and Firefox will periodically check for them. Under Help.

                              I did the download but when I click on Help it still shows the old version!
                              It said download complete.

                                  Will try it!
                                  You might have to restart to allow the changes to take effect!

                                    It sounds as if you have downloaded it but not installed it ??

                                    Can you see the new download file either on your desktop or in your download folder - if so double click on it to start the installation.
