Firefox Help; a little problem

Hello,

I'm afraid I've a problem with FF. Now, I've always loved this browser but lately I've been forced to use IE because Firefox just won't work, at least not always.

Basically today I opened Firefox and istead of starting as usual, it asked me to create a profile (???) - now, I'v been using FF for a year (running 1.0.7, I believe) and it had never ask me such a thing. Any ideas about what might have happned? :(

Also, that's quite odd but since few days ago I cannot access to www.photobucket.com using FF, I can only access to it if I use IE. I actually host some of my pictures on photobucket and it's quite annoying not being able to access it (It tries to load the site for 5 minutes then says it can't connect to it).

Do you know what might be the problem?

Thanks,
:(
Marianne

Press CTRL+ALT+Delete
Go in to the Proccesses and look for firefox.exe
Select it and hit End Proccess.
That has worked everytime it asked me to make a new profile.

Also, upgrade to FireFox 1.5, I think they fixed that bug in that version.

Thanks for the reply. I actually re-strarted the computer to make it work again and, yes, I think I'll upgrade it soon - so that message is a bug?
