Firefox updates

Greetings fellow technomancers,
The tittle is incomplete:

I don't know if this has happend to anyone else: after Firefox just recently has attempted to update, it hasn't worked consistently. Quite a few people are reporting issues to mozzilas tech support. It's a long spectrum of issues that've been reported by other users to to firefox. It seems to cover Gmail crashing the browser to duplicate bids on ebay

If anyone else has been hit with this I'm curius what they've done to solve it.

I'm not sure what veQ is causing some combination of firefox and a variety of webpages to become incompatible. for pure havok this gremlin has great timing.

My only hackish workaround so far has been to uninstall, and go back to version 20 of firefox, and also tell firefox not to update.

Re: Firefox updates

FWIW I'm now on v26 with no problems, but I don't access Gmail (tested ok today) or eBay with it.
