Hello,
This is due to the registry entries that are installed with Firefox. Any major changes to the system registry requires a reboot. However, a reboot in this case is not immediatelly necessary. You can ignore this error and reboot later if you are working on something, or close out all programs and reboot the computer.
I hope this helps. Please let me know if you have any questions.
Thanks, Raph30

I upgraded Firefox. From the I only get a message to restart the computer over and over. Even if I try to uninstall it just restart the computer

often this is because of a corrupt file somewhere in the install. If you have tried
1. Findind the Mozilla Firefox folder in your computer and using the uninstall icon
and
2. Going to Control Panel and going to Add/Remove Programs or Programs and Features and using that service to uninstall the program
then try to uninstall what you can, do not reboot, and manually delete the Mozilla Firefox files from Program files. Then, load up the Registry editor by going to run-> and typing in regedit
search (ctrl+f) for the word firefox and delete every instance you find.
now, restart your computer normally by going to start and then restarting.

I can't open mozilla even before its properly installed

Hello there...
I also have experienced the same many times already. You go to your start menu> control panel> add/remove programs> remove mozilla firefox.
Then you use another available browser and download Mozilla Firefox again. That works for me. Hope that helps... have a nice day!

It won't open after quitting it the first time

Probably the best thing to do is:
De-install/remove firefox first (configuration - software, then select mozilla firefox and remove). Reboot computer and then download mozilla firefox and reinstall it.

Mozilla Firefox will work terrifically for days and then, all of a sudden, the screen comes up and everything is askew.

1. Go to the Mozilla web site and download the newest version of the software.
2. Go to Start > Control Panel > Add/Remove Programs and uninstall your current version of FireFox
3. Install the newer FireFox you just downloaded.

Keep us posted, please.
Thanks.
