Before I updated it, I could open it, load a website quickly and we were on our way. Now though, I open it and most of the time it CRASHES after I click a bookmark or type a website in.

Even when it doesn't crash, it doesn't load a website. I try another browser and it loads the website fine so network is NOT the issue.

I have uninstalled the new Firefox 8 and gone back to 7.0. I'm happy at the moment, but this problem is disturbing.

this is just an issue with FIREFOX 8 and not Firefox 7 so it's clearly something that was happened in the update that caused this.
