adsafeprotect.com tries to run something which won't run. This stops Firefox from running.
Reading some sites, the site attempts to run something from adsafeprotect.com . The script supplied by that site apparently doesn't work in Firefox. This makes Firefox nearly unusable. I don't think that this is a Firefox problem as such, but I can't figure out a work-around.
