How to get HTML5 working in IE and Firefox 2

My Firefox loads a site but then freezes when I try to scroll or move the cursor around the site. I have deleted FF several times and reloaded it with no success.
I have printed out and tried dozens of “fixes” from the FF site, but nothing seems to work. I decided to try the Profile change (I do have Foxmarks installed) ,but I have Windows 7 OS so I don't have a “Run” box.
I did type the firefox-P into the Search Programs and Files box at the bottom of the programs list, but only get a list of Firefox sites previously I've visited and in my Firefox folder.
I really need to access some of these sites that are experiencing the Freezing problems and as bad as I hate to I, may have to say Good Bye to Firefox because IE 7 & IE 8load and display the sites and their functions with no problems at all.

I am getting this error message in pop up windows when I am using firefox and upon starting firefox. I have a lot of info stored in it and don’t want to tear it out and start over. Any ideas how I can cure it? Thanks, Amy
Here is the error message. I happens when I am opening windows to upload an image on a site or when I first open the program:
[JavaScript Application]
ReferenceError: nsBrowserStatusHandler is not defined

Thanks for your help.

First of all, thank you for the solution… it’s working…. but, i finally found something that miraculasly worked for me you can try it to hold your addons, pluggins, preferences, etc.

This solution worked for me… let’s just say i was lucky.
- Go to C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\chrome
- Rename browser.xul
- Run firefox (you will notice that it’s not working, it’s normal)
- Go back to C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\chrome and get browser.xul to it’s original name
- Run firefox again… it’s should work then !

I hope you all resolve the problem… please share the solution and please let others know if it worked for you.
