    IE9, IE8 and Firefox 3.6 all crash the moment a print option is used.


    Hi all,

    My first report of a crash so if I miss anything useful out, sorry and I will try and provide further.

    Suddenly, firefox 3.6.13 has closed down the moment I select print, print preview or page setup. Running Windows 7 Professional with all current updates provided in 32bit.

    I run Fineprint as my default printer driver but the problem occurs with other default printer drivers selected. Printing from Word 2007, Adobe Acrobat reader 9 or notepad works fine.

    Running Firefox in safe mode still causes the problem.

    Interestingly, IE 8.0.7600.16385 and IE9.0.8080.16413 also crashes, even with add-ons disabled.

    I have uninstalled flash and acrobat reader as they were recently updated but no effect.

    System restore is limited to a standard system point after a load of windows updates on the 10-02-11 were installed and no obvious changes were made since that point was made on the 13th

    Any help, gratefully received. G

Hey everyone, Just wondering, in Windows 7, there is no option on the snipping tool to allow it to print directly from the snipping tool. You have to snip what you want, then copy it to a paint document or something of the sort, then print from there. That seems like such a waste to me. In...

Firefox has had a few updates recently but now, as I write this post, I am using Internet Explorer 8 which feels faster than Firefox 3.6.8 at this point and I don't know why. I am more of a Firefox user but, I just feel that IE 8 is doing smoother and faster on the browsing. Those of you...
