Firefox keeps crashing with FoxyProxy Plus

Wed, 06/02/2010 - 10:13 — Apps

I've just installed FoxyProxy Plus (replacing the previously installed free version) and now Firefox v3.6.3 keeps crashing.  When I disable FoxyProxy, Firefox doesn't crash at all, but even if it's running on the 'Default' proxy option (which is setup to not use a proxy), Firefox crashes every couple of minutes.  I never had any crashes with the free version.
When I first installed FoxyProxy Plus, I had the Addon 'DownloadHelper' enabled.  This caused it to crash almost constantly.  After disabling that addon, it now crashes much less, but it is still about every few minutes
Please let me know how this can be fixed.
Thanks.

foxy proxy plus 3.3.2 was constantly crashing firefox and i finally tracked it down to another plugin that was incompatible. i removed that plugin but since the upgrade to 3.3.4 its been crashing firefox again. i've had to uninstall the plugin for now. total waste of money.
i'm very disappointed a paid plugin is so poorly implemented. don't you guys beta test?
i think its refund time.

Thanks for the info. Using

Thanks for the info. Using your foxyproxy.xml on Ubuntu, Firefox isn't crashing for me. However, if it's crashing every few minutes, I suspect this is the license "nag" screen attempting to display itself and...failing.

Can you please open FoxyProxy Plus (Ctrl+F2) and click the "License Info" button? Does it crash? Please send your license info to support@leahscape.com (and reference the URL of this page so we know what you're talking about :)) I want to run FoxyProxy Plus with your XML but also your license info.

Thanks,
Eric
