firefox problem
« on: December 09, 2010, 12:23:51 PM »
Un-able to connect to the browser on my aspire one but can still connect to web mail. sytem Linpus lite v1.0.13.E
When I click on the Connect Icon The browser fails to open. If I click  on an e-mail link I get the message "Firefox is already running but not responding. To open a new window, you must first close the existing Firefox process, or restart your system."

$ kill -9 (result of pgrep)

Thanks for the advice but I used the recovery disc and re-loaded the operating system. Now it's working fine.
