Fix Google Mail (G-mail) crashing Firefox

  Posted: February, 24 2008

There have been a lot of reports about Google Mail crashing Firefox, normally when trying to access the ‘All Mail’ section of a Google Mail account.

Thankfully we think we’ve found the problem to be caused by the HTML Validator plugin trying to access mail.google.com, here’s how to modify it and get back to crash free browsing.

  1. Tools > Add-ons > Options from the the HTML validator section
  2. firefox-gmail-crashing-fix-01.gif

  3. Exceptions button located just right of the checked ‘Enable validation in the Browser’ text
  4. Enter mail.google.com into the ‘Address of web site’ field.
