The computer at work had been working fine. Now, out of "no where" (I say it like that because my boss who knows nothing of computers was here with the computer last night for 2 hours with no one else around, so God knows what he might have done), Firefox won't work. I reinstalled it (Didn't remove the old one entirely) to see if it would fix it, and no luck. IE and other programs are working fine, but can't figure out why firefox wouldn't be. There was an svhost error one of the time I rebooted the computer, but I didn't write down the message and it hasn't reappeared.
Ideas?

Seriously you and Syd use old garbage computers from like 2000. Your work computer seem to be even worse.
Good computers are cheap as crap on Craigslists. I offered to send you one if you would have paid the shipping.
BTW your title made me Laugh out Loud

Does Firefox just not open or do you get error messages when opening or does it just close right after it opens?
Try seeing if you can open Firefox in safe mode (there should be a shortcut in the Program Folder for it - if there is no shortcut, go to Start-> Run-> and put "firefox -safe-mode" without the quotes in the field). And see if that works.
