Hi guys I use Firefox as my Intenet browser but am having problems with it. I have been using Firefox now for about a year now without having any problems, but the past few days when I load up Firefox and start to browse the Internet after about 10mins it just starts to freeze, comes up at the top (Not Responding)!

Has anyone had any issues with this in the past or present and how to fix it?

Kind Regards

Rob

checked how many processes of firefox are running?

May be worth a re-install with the latest. doesnt take long...

 

There was a security fix for FF yesterday, I believe it was to do with something making fire fox crash. Suggest removing firefox completly use IE and download the latest version of FF and all updates if needed. Then see what happens.

 

Any add-ons installed? (Tools -> Add-Ons)

 

I've just un-installed Firefox doing a complete new in-stall now, see how that goes!

Thanks for the help guys!

 

Hi guys after removing Firefox all together and doing a complete re-install I am still getting the same problem it just freezes all together then I have to kill the process.

Any other suggestions?

Regards

 

Does it happen with other browsers? Does it happen with older versions of Firefox?

 

No i'm using IE as my other browser.

I've done a complete re-install of Firefox Version 3.6 put still getting same problems. Still freezing after about 10mins or so, or when navigate to another site. Any ideas Boson?

Regards.

 

I was guessing that an update Firefox had done might have caused some weird conflict with your hardware. Alternatively, it might have been an app you've installed recently that's conflicting with Firefox.

 

I've not installed anything in the last couple of weeks, just seems to be happening recently. Just cannot figure it out.

No automatic updates? No virus scan updates? Nothing? Think outside the box... what might have changed - even something minor - in the last couple of weeks?

 

Maybe a system restore might help
