WE 8.2 really works well with FF 19.2. Version 20.X crashes alot. Steve
from GW stated in an earlier message that testing reveals a call made by WE
that previously worked fine but causes FF crashes in 20.X. I've also found
that FF 20.X incorrectly renders some pages like MLB's standings by not
recognizing its tables. This is true in WE and NVDA so in my opinion FF
20.X just is not ready for prime time. They also put the download window in
the library which doesn't even make sense to me. It's the first version
that makes me think about going back to IE for my primary browser. I've
been a loyal FF user since 2X. If ie8's good enough for XP then FF 19.2's
good enough as well.

I don't use the latest version of FF so I guess, I am unsecure when it
comes to updating the program.

So why does it not crash when using NVDA?

it's firefox itself, not window-eyes. there are forum posts about it
and doesn't seem like a solution as of yet. I'm seriously thinking of
downgrading to 17.0.1

Is anyone else having frequent crashes of Firefox with Window eyes
8.2?
I'm running the current version of firefox, 20.0.2 and window eyes
8.2.
It doesn't matter what I'm doing in firefox, going to a different
web page, opening a file, etc I get a message that firefox has
crashed.
I'm not running any plug ins with firefox, not doing anything
strange. I even tried totally uninstalling firefox, deleted the
settings and reinstalled from a fresh download and even had firefox
crash at the end of the install.
I'm not getting any crashes at all with nvda running.
I'm running xp home with all windows updates applied, nod32 for
anti virus with all updates and not much else on this computer.
I've had this happen after starting window eyes with nvda running
first and also after a reboot with no screen reader starting
automatically and running window eyes manually. Also the same if I
have window eyes start automatically, none of that changes anything.
Thanks,
Steve
