    Hi.

    I must have had the newest version, not beta of firefox crash 50 times at least in the last 2 days, it`s been doing my head in.

    I have removed and re-installed a number if times, but it was just the same.

    So i had a look on the mozilla website, and they mentioned something about intel virtualization or some thing causing a problem, and they said to run firefox in windows xp sp2 compatibility mode.

    Any it`s nealy a day since i made the change and my firefox has not crashed once. :D

    I just thought i would let other people know.

    Regards

    John.

    Firefox has a built in spell checker.
