Hopefully I have got this in the right section. :)

In the past 2 weeks, my FF has been closing on random web pages, I will click the a link, or type in an address, and it will load and then totally close, I then have to open FF up again, and get prompted with the usual, 'restore previous' 'start new' etc. It only seems to quit on the same websites. For example, if facebook works, it always works. But say I go to skysports it always quits.

I have tried many fixes such as spybot, and antivirus scans, opening in safemode, re-install FF etc, but nothing.

I also heard that this could be due to a certain virus (which was found on my computer a few weeks back), and this problem has only became present since I found this virus.

My question is, what is the fix for this? it gets rather annoying.

edit: by the way, I get no error message etc, it just quits its self and goes to desktop.

According to my log, the virus was a:

Trojan Horse SHeur:CHKN

It was removed, and the file was healed.
