Firefox Problem

Ok first I have used the searchbar and got nothing.

Whenever I try and open Firefox I get a little window poping up that says "Firefox is aldready running, but is not responding. To open a new window, you must first close the existing Firefox process, or restart your system." The problem is that I don't have any Firefox windows open. I have tried to restart my computer, same results. I've tried re-installing it and that didn't work.

Help?

Are you running Windows? If so, your processes and/or registry are probably fucked up. Go to the task-manager (ctrl-alt-del), view the processes tab, and end firefox.exe by right-clicking and hitting "end process". Now you should be able to start firefox and get a working window. If this doesn't help, make sure you have the latest version of the program, all updates are installed, and that you properly installed it.

thanks, but none of those suggestions worked. The safe mode thing gets me the same window poping up and hart62 I looked in the proccesses thing for the firefox.exe file and it wasn't there. I have all the updates and the latest version also.
