Firefox Crashes on WordPress

Or how the Big Broth­ers mess with our Life

Have you noticed the increas­ing num­ber of Fire­fox Crashes recently? It hap­pens for sure when you try to load media to your Word­Press Blog Post or bage, or, rather when you try to access the media up-loader from the Word­Press editor.

The rea­sons could be inher­ent to Word­Press, since Word­Press 2.6 added sup­port for Gears, to speed up the admin­is­tra­tive inter­face and reduce server hits (wikipedia). It could be inher­ent to the recent Fire­fox update or to the Win­dows Vista Ser­vice Pack 2, or to Adobe Flash.

In as much as I find, it’s not a Vista Issue as it also occurs on XP. For once Microsoft is out of the race. The cul­prit is the incom­pat­i­bil­ity between Fire­fox with Word­Press Media loader and Google Gears and Adobe. Na!

Google and Fire­fox and Word­Press, what a great Club!

How to pre­vent Fire­fox Crashes on WordPress

There are two ways to at least tem­porar­ily take care of the problem:

- dis­able Gears in your Browser

or as I did,

- delete Google Gears all together.

To do this: just go Start — Con­trol Panel — Pro­grams and Fea­tures and delete there Google Gears.

Happy Blog­ging!

PS: Nice Stuff our Big Broth­ers pro­vide us with, but free is just never free or it’s not worth a thing; you decide.
YORGOO Call Tonite: we will help you to cut out Google Gears.

    Hey I’d love to con­grat­u­late you for such a great made forum!
    thought this would be a nice way to intro­duce myself!
    In order to grow cap­i­tal it is usu­ally a sen­si­ble con­clu­sion to begin a sav­ings or invest­ing plan as soon in life as fea­si­ble. But don’t worry if you have not begun sav­ing your assets until later on in life. As a result of hard work, that is exper­i­ment­ing the best invest­ment vehi­cles for your cash you can slowly but surely increase your finances so that it adds up to a large amount by the time you hope to retire. Look at all of the avail­able asset classes from stocks to real estate as invest­ments for your money. A wisely diver­si­fied port­fo­lio of invest­ments in var­i­ous asset classes can make your money mul­ti­ply through­out the years.
