I am having issues with the new version of Firefox (15) which will not load.

(I have wound back to version 14 and stopped automatic updates)

works OK under XP

You may chose to think that, I could not possibly comment.

Test #1:
[Ctrl]+[Alt]+[Del] > Task Manager > Processes> Highlight "firefox.exe" > End Process > Ok
See if it runs after doing that.

Test #2:
Start Firefox in "Safe Mode" by holding down the shift key while starting.

Test #3:
Incompatible add-ons enabled from previous version of Firefox, especially Skype.

Test #4:
Has this new version of Firefox been enabled (allowed) in the software firewall? Look under Ctrl Panel > Firewall.
