Question:
Why does AVG make Firefox keep "error reporting"?

Please read this whole thing! I will give 10 points to whoever solves this problem for me! Thank you!!

OK, this has been driving me crazy!! Ever since I updated AVG, Firefox has been having lots of "error reports" (where it asks you to send the error report to microsoft)

Evertime I'm on Firefox, it happens like every single minute or less! Esspecially on Yahoo Answers when I want to read a question. It gets annoying.

To see if AVG was the problem, I uninstalled it. Firefox didn't error report anymore! I reinstalled AVG and it started error reporting again. I also tried reinstalling firefox, it did nothing.

AVG is causing this problem, it never used to do this...

OH and I don't want to uninstall AVG.. So what can I do to make AVG quit "error reporting" Firefox WITHOUT uninstalling AVG?

Turn off error reporting. If you are using vista go to Control Panel then Problems Reports and Solutions (Similar name for Windows XP) and turn off the automatic error reporting option or you can disable it completely in advanced options.

I know the new internet explorer does crash a lot but I know firefox is usally better with that. maybe you should you internet explorer for a while if it doesnt do the same thing. or try Opera its almost as good as firefox.but uninstall firefox first.
