Computer Nerds Wanted: Firefox's Crashing

yeah, I wouldn't keep it either due to the price but it's a nice program. You can export bookmarks so you can re-add them...

pcpitstop.com isn't a horrible website to go to if you are having problems either. It's not an antivirus website per-say but it identifies other potential issues.

Yeah you should just be able to use those same bookmarks in the new install.Correct. During the FF uninstall it'll give you the option to maintain the FF personal data. The other option is to export your bookmarks - uninstall - and import your data back in.

editing you registry key will do nothing at all, they will be changed again upon reboot. deleting reg keys will do thing, so will deleting files.

One of the things on that machine.. Viewpoint... is known shit-ware. get rid of it.
There's a lot of stuff on that machine that isn't stock windows... you may or may not need it.
Personally, I do not use any anti-virus software on my machines. AV software, video drivers, and IFS (installable filesystem filters, like AV software) cause the majority of bluescreens on windows. If your machines are firewalled or behind a basic SOHO router with NAT enabled, that is a very good start at practical malware resistance. All you have to do after that is not click "yes" on anything, ever
On an XP machine, you should download IE7 and you should download Windows Defender, both from Microsoft. Even if you don't use IE, the IE you have on the machine may as well be IE7 instead of IE6.
