Browser Start-up

[Guest waxace]

I use Firefox as the default browser in Win Vista HP 64 bit. It works with

no problem when running, and has no issues otherwise.

The problem is when launching.

I get a Error? A box pops up stating "Windows cannot find "TYPED URL" .

Make sure you typed the name correctly and try again"

After a second, my Firefox opens as normal and I can browse the internet as

I wish.

Firefox is set as the default browser so I don't understand why this

happens...

And is there a way to stop this message from coming up??

Thanks in advance for any help...

Hi,

Check your start/home page. It might be an invalid web address.

Check your Firefox shortcut. It might contain an invalid

switch/parameter/option/command.

Homepage is fine, This happens on ALL links when starting internet browsing.

As I said, after the message it goes to the browser normally and acts

normally after that....

There is a newer Firefox x64 version announced here:

http://www.start64.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=25&Itemid=55

Maybe that one fixes your issue.
