BUG? : iMacros constantly crashes on Firefox 16.0.1
Hi,
Since my Firefox has been updated to 16.0.1, iMacros constantly crashes at the end of scripts or when I manually press on STOP :/
This happens 3 times out of 4, and on on 2 different (pretty clean) machines, one of which having only iMacros installed as extensions.
Config : Windows 7 SP1 / Firefox 16.0.1 / iMacros for Firefox 7.5.0.4.
Anybody has the same problem?
Thanks

Re: BUG? : iMacros constantly crashes on Firefox 16.0.1
Yes, I have the same problem. The crash occurred intermittently in Firefox 15.0.1, but in 16.0.1 my iMacros script crashes FF every time it finishes.
Windows 7 Home SP1 / Firefox 16.0.1 / iMacros for Firefox 7.5.0.4

Hi,
Would you please try it with the latest version of iMacros for Firefox available here. You will need to manually install it by dragging and dropping the .xpi file onto your browser window.

Experiencing the same issue. Installed the latest version as suggested and the first macro I ran crashed firefox. I run in ff 16.0.1 in the default profile and no proxy. Win 7 Pro x64, intel xeon W3580 @3.33 Ghz, 12.0 GB ram. Didn't start experiencing crashes until ff 15. And 16 is much worse. Most of my macros contain a lot of Javascript not sure if that helps or not. Anyway just wanted to let you know so that hopefully it can be resolved.

Hi Dahakk,
Thanks for trying. Are you experiencing the same behavior when running the demo macros and scripts included with iMacros?

Could you be a bit more specific? Do you mean:Dahakk wrote:Most of my macros contain a lot of Javascript not sure if that helps or not.
- You are using URL GOTO=javascript for calling Javacsript in your macro?
- You are using the EVAL command for executing Javascript in your macro?
- You are playing Javascript macro files (.js) as opposed to .iim files?

Re: BUG? : iMacros constantly crashes on Firefox 16.0.1
Sorry, should have been more specific. I am using .js instead of .iim. I ran all of the demo scripts with no crash issues(although I'm not sure they all did what they were supposed to do. Also my macros haven't changed between ff ver 14 and 16. They used to work just fine without crashing ff and now they don't.

Hi Tom,
I've installed the 7.6.0.0 as you suggested but unfortunately this issue is still here with the same frequency, that is, almost every time

I think this bug is critical for Firefox and should be fixed asap.

Re: BUG? : iMacros constantly crashes on Firefox 16.0.1
Firefox is slowly turning into a piece of crap (it seems they really want power users to move to chrome) and I kind of feel FF16 is the reason of the failure of iMacros and not the contrary. The support team here has always been great, I'm sure we'll get out of this soon

chrome is good but it is not open-sourced like firefox

Dear support,
Do you have any other reports of this behaviour and are you investigating? iMacros has become nearly unusable for me under Firefox 16.0.1
Thank you for your assistance.
