Ugh, I really dislike firefox 3. Ever since I downloaded it, none of my apps work, Some of them work sometimes. And others just don’t work at all.
I’ve tried un installing them, and then re installing them. Doesn’t work.
I’ve tried un installing Firefox and re installing it. Nope, no dice there either.
I’ve looked on the mozilla forums, a few people have been having similar problems with their apps. But all the technical mumbo jumbo just confuses me.
Nope, that didn’t work either. no tool bar, nothing. I can’t even change the settings for stumbleupon. Firefox also likes to hang around in the memory or whatever sometimes after it’s closed. So I have to go into the task manager and close it myself. My friend is having that same problem as well.
There’s a damn good reason why I don’t like change. This is why.
Keep things the way they are!!!
Sounds more like a Windows problem to me. You have a trojan or some spyware on there that’s not cooperating. Firefox 3 with stumbleupon works just fine for me.
Download spybot search and destroy, update it first, then do a full scan.

That’s pretty ironic. Someone posting on the internet about how they hate change. I guess you could just write a letter to the editor on an old fashioned typewriter and ask them why your telegraph machine isn’t working?
Further irony: if your computer has spyware on it, you probably got it from visiting random sites using … stumbleupon!
I use AVG free.
And as I said before, I’m not the only person who’s having the same problem.
I’ve been into the Mozilla forums. There’s several threads stating that other people are having the EXACT SAME PROBLEM AS I AM. and alot of them don’t state that they use Stumble upon as an addon.
Yes, a lot of people have computer problems, and a lot of them are related to spyware and trojans, etc. Did you download Spybot Search and Destroy and update & run it? A lot of people on those forums are describing pretty classic malware symptoms – especially the corrupted dlls.
Clearly Stumpleupon works just fine on Firefox 3. We can all seem to run it without any problems. What’s different between us and you? We’re not using your computer.
It doesn’t work your computer because something’s wrong with your computer. If you don’t want to accept that as a fact, then there’s not much you can do to fix it. Are you getting error messages?
Just isn’t there. It’s installed, but it doesn’t show up.
Same with foxytunes, it only shows up sometimes.
sigh
PS I’ve always had spybot search and destroy and I update it and run it more than most would. I also do registry cleanups and defrag, and I do virus scans as well.
I take care of my computer.
