Plugins Problem in Firefox…. again.

I had this exact same problem with WordPress admin panels and Google Reader before. Turned out it was Google Gears sort of borked/half-installed. Well it’s back, only this time it’s GMail.

Any bright folks out there know how to fix this one? It’s awful annoying.

  1. Find and install the new gtalk video chat plugin

    Yep that seemed to do the trick. Thanks!

    Kinda dumb though isn’t it? There should be a better way to opt out. For me it was either install this or be annoyed with a yellow bar forever.

    My Firefox crashes a lot of times everyday. I think one or other plugin is the cause of it. But how can I ever find that out easily?

    I have found that Google Analytics slows down Firefox. It is just Google’s thing, crashing browsers. :-P

    If none of them are super-essential, you could deactivate one per day until Firefox becomes stable for you for a whole day.
