When computer is turned on and I log in and attempt to open Firefox, it won't open the first 2 times I double-click the icon. Then when it does open
it closes after about 3 seconds. Then I try to open it again and it closes. Finally the 3rd time it stays open and works normally. I had the same problem
on my other computer, a windows vista. I've ran Norton for malware but it doesn't find anything. IE would do the same thing on the vista machine.

Does it happen if you boot to Safe Mode with Networking?

No. But the networking part didn't work. I think because I have a program for my wireless connection. And safe mode didn't load that program.

What about trying a change to let Windows manage your wireless?
