1. has anyone have these pop pus on firefox, and how do you avoid them? Note: these clips might be a little loud. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fR5k... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3TSc... 2. I'm getting a lot of crashes on firefox 3. When I go to places like tv.com or watch Project Lore on wowhead.com with another link open (like deviantART) I would always crash. Normally I get a message "Firefox has encountered a problem and needs to close". Is there a way I can prevent these problems from happening? I assume its firefox 3 because It never happonds when I use IE. 3. what are the reasons for my computer to take longer to startup, also why is it when the windows logo appears and about half way, it pauses for about a sec, then the windows logo disappears, then reappears? My computer: Dell Inspiron 530 1.80 GHz 2 GB ram Windows XP Thanks for reading my note, and have a nice day.

Re #3. I don't know the reason but this seems to happen on many XP machines so it is probably normal. some other bloke...
