I have no idea Deejay, i installed Google Chrome after having problems with my Battlelog screen freezing up since Endgame came out, i made Chrome my default browser and first time i tried to play BF3 it played ok until i got xfire and tried to get out of game, when i tried to minmize the game crashed and since then i only get a pale blue screen through Chrome, so since then to play BF3 again i have to go and make Firefox my default browser again, but yesterday i went into options in Firefox and it told me that Firefox was my default Homepage wtf? even though i had chrome as my default browser, so i changed the Homepage in Fireox to make it Chrome Homepage then tried the game, it worked great under Chrome i played for about an hour with no problems, not even any lag, then i thought i would get rid of Firefox, so i unpinned it from my taskbar and tried to uninstall it, it wouldn't let me because it said it was still running, i couldn't find it runnig anywhere so i left it, i logged on this morning and tried BF3 through Chrome, again pale blue screen, i did then manage to uninstall Firefox but it never made it better so i have reinstalled Firefox again and i will once again change my homepage to Chrome and see if that works, i think there must be a conflict somwhere between the 2 browsers but as Firefox don't seem to want me to get rid of it i am at a loss what to do, gotta say i find Firefox more user friendly than Chrome but maybe that is because i have used it for so long, i can't seem to find anything in Chrome to set my homepage there as i could in Firefox ie click options then change it there, i can't find anything like that in Chrome, anyone have an idea about that or where it is?

I don't understand when you say you have to log in to Origin then open Firefox, i can still launch game either by clicking icon on desktop or starting through Origin but as i said game just freezes on the Battlelog, just tried to change my Homepage to Chrome again through Firefox options (which worked for me yesterday) now if i click on Firefox i get "The address isn't valid" and "The URL is not valid and cannot be loaded" i just don't get it, how do i now get back into my Firefox options to change stuff without uninstalling again, i give up.
