hi BREDDICK Welcome to Windrivers.

Which version of mozilla are you using and does the error produce a code i.e. similar to these (http://www.mozilla.org/releases/mozilla1.6b/changelog.html) .

Do you mean Mozilla Firefox 0.9 and what is the error message number if it has one?
Mozillazine (http://forums.mozillazine.org/viewforum.php?f=38) is a dedicated forum for Mozilla which may give more accurate answers to the error.

Yeah its 0.9, its right when I get on my cpu. I click the Mozilla log on my desktop to search the net and that message comes up. I press OK and it opens up.

I would also send a Bugzilla report as well. It only helps to make the program better.

check your Home Page Location -- it will say something like "res://glgbq.dll/index.html#22776" instead of http://www.msn.com

Welcome to Windrivers wintech2003

While that fix may work, it might be more than that. There is a few new variants of hijackers around which are causing havoc.

I would like to note that changing the default homepage for Firefox 9.3 was successful on my computer at removing this error annoyance. I was using Windows Server 2003. I have not had this problem with Firefox on XP or Fedora.
