Firefox, SQL Developer and others crashing

leave a comment »

I found that Firefox and SQL Developer kept crashing, which in the middle of a project was a new phenomenon – my first reaction was to look what I had done recently which was related to wireless networking on my laptop.

Checking for viruses, changing back parameters on my wireless network and other changes made me think I had totally lost it but then I saw a light! I had earlier added a new entry in the hosts file as instructed by my employer and thought I should include this in my investigation and found multiple entries of the same IP Address… I decided to remove the multiples and it appears that this has fixed the problem!
