LoadPerf Error 3012 – "The performance strings in the Performance registry value is corrupted when process Performance extension counter provider. BaseIndex value from Performance registry is the first DWORD in Data section, LastCounter value is the second DWORD in Data section, and LastHelp value is the third DWORD in Data section".

Jan: I don't know why this is happening. Have you tried with another browser? Other things to try:
1. Complete uninstall and reinstall Firefox.
2. Check your RAM for errors.
3. Check your disk for problems (Open an administrative command prompt and give this command: chkdsk c: /F /R )
4. Update Graphic card's drivers.
