"jqsnotify.exe- Application Error" popup that states "...instruction at 0x00152058 referenced memory at 0x025f0014... memory could not be 'read'. Click on OK to terminate the program" whenever a new window or tab is opened. What does this mean? I get exactly the same popup message "...0x00152058...0x025f0014..." when using google chrome, except the "Application Error" is from Chrome.exe. Not sure if this is related but ever since these popups, firefox often hangs/freezes, when I open taskmng, it states that the program is "not responding", I have to force to end it, Again exactly the same problem when I use Chrome.

This happened

Every time Firefox opened

July 5th-ish ,2010

That is a problem with the Java Quick starter.

http://www.java.com/en/download/help/quickstarter.xml - What is Java Quick Starter (JQS)? What is the benefit of running JQS? - 6.0

Disable the Java Quick Start extension: Tools > Addons > Extensions Control Panel > Java > Advanced tab > Miscellaneous >Java Quick Starter (disable)
