Firefox not working [Solved] by Mike on 02-27-2005 at 12:27 PM
Hello...
I can't seem to be able to open firefox...
When I open it, I get this error:
---------------------------
Java Plug-in Error
---------------------------
Java Plug-in for Netscape Navigator should not be used in Microsoft Internet Explorer.
Please use Java Plug-in for Microsoft Internet Explorer instead.
---------------------------
OK
---------------------------
After I click OK, firefox is in the processes list but not on the task bar using over 80 % of CPU and 13 MB of ram...
I also tried running it from safe mode (safe mode of firefox not windows) but I get the same error...
What should I do?
I will try deleting my profile folder later...

code:
"firefoxdir/firefox.exe" -profilemanager
oh and also check in your install folder of firefox for a folder named "plugins" rename that folder to something different then try firefox again
