Every few minutes, I get a message "not responding" and I can't do anything until he goes.

Every few minutes (sometimes in less than 60 seconds, Firefox crashes upward. If I try to keep typing I have a message "do not answer" and will have to wait until he's going to continue. This always occurs when you browse through my e-mail, but it happens to other sites, whenever I have to type an entry. I have tried disabling all my modules and it still happens. I deleted Firefox and reloaded it and the problem persists. I'm about to go back to Microsoft Explorer, because it is too long to navigate in Firefox. I use Windows 7, 64 bit, on a one-year-old Dell with a lot of speed, laptop memory and hard disk space.

See Firefox crashes

Also, try running Firefox in questions to troubleshoot Firefox in Safe Mode. If it works properly in this configuration, then one of your modules is the culprit.

I also notice a couple of old installations plugin in your system specs. I recommend you to update Flash on v10.2.159.1 which also addresses a recently discovered Zero Day exploit. See Adobe releases Flash Player security update
Update via http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/

Also, go to the Windows Control Panel. Java and updated for v1.6.0_24 by clicking on 'Update Now' button.

You have AVG Safe Search, AVG Linkscanner or McAfee Secure Search installed? All three are problematic and tend to cause Firefox to slow down. They can be disabled in tools | Add - ons | Extensions.

If the problem persists despite the above measures, please let us know and we will try to help you further.

    Do not eject discs or discs eject slowly

    1. If the drive ejects discs slowly or appears to have difficulty, insert and eject a disc several times. Check the disc to see if it has a label or other material stuck to the disc which increases the thickness. Remove the label if possible.
    2. If the disc does not eject, try pressing the eject on the keyboard button. Some older keyboards may use the F12 key to eject the disc.
    3. If the disc does not eject, try dragging the icon of the disk to the trash.
    4. If the disc will still not eject, try to hold down the mouse or trackpad button after you restart the computer. The Superdrive should attempt to eject the disc.

  • Windows Defender does not work. When I try to turn it on, I get the message "not responding".

    Original title: Windows Defender

    I have Windows Vista and my Windows Defender will activate/doesn't not work.  When I try to turn it on, it responds by saying: 'it is not responding' and stops automatically.  I tried to re - install & who did not work.  Any ideas.

    Hi lskdjfoie,
     
    What have you tried to reinstall? Windows Defender or other programs?
     
    I suggest the following steps and check.
     
    Step 1:
     
    Usually if you have a third-party security software installed, Windows Defender would not work. I would temporarily disable all security software and check if the problem persists.
     

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/disable-antivirus-software
     
    Note: Antivirus software can help protect your computer against viruses and other security threats.  In most cases, you should not disable your antivirus software. If you need to disable temporarily to install other software, you must reactivate as soon as you are finished. If you are connected to the Internet or a network, while your antivirus software is disabled, your computer is vulnerable to attacks.
     
    Step 2:
     
    If this does not help, I would say you scan SFC on your computer and check if Windows Defender works fine.
     
    Step 3:
     
    If none of the steps helps create a new user account and check if the problem persists.

  • Whenever something happens on Firefox, I get a Message "Not responding" for about 10-20 seconds.

    For the last two days, Firefox acting strangley. It is not plant and must be closed, it's just a lot of crashes Micro. Whenever I change a tab, refresh a page, click on anything, do anything, Firefox doesn't work for about 10 to 20 seconds, sometimes less, sometimes longer. When it happens, I get a message at the top saying (not responding) until it suits me later.

    I had been very happy with Firefox, but if this problem cannot be corrected, I'll be forced to find an alternative, I don't like the sound of. Any help would be appreciated...

    Hello Adam.

    You may have a problem with some Add on Firefox which is an obstacle to the normal behavior of your Firefox. Have you tried to disable all add-ons (just to see) to see if Firefox goes back to normal?

    Whenever you have a problem with Firefox, whatever it is, make sure that it's not one of your modules installed, be it an extension, a theme or a plugin. To do this easily and cleanly, start Firefox in safe mode , and then select disable all add-ons. If the problem goes away, you know that it's an add-on. Disable them all in normal mode and allow them one by one until you find the source of the problem. See this article for more information on troubleshooting extensions and theme. You can troubleshoot plugins in the same way.

    If you want supported for one of your modules, you will need to contact the author.

  • various websites is send me the message "not responding" and the system

    that is, try to get to www.powerball.com/powerball/pb_numbers.asp, I get "not responding", then the system hangs for a few minutes. My hard drive seems to be active, trying to do something, and then after a few minutes I can return but can never get on the site.  I had the same problems with some mails in hotmail but not others.

    I'm on a comcast dsl cable modem/router with the enclosed telephone service. I think I found my answer by checking my network connection. The system used a network connection to broadband instead of the connection to the local network. I disabled the broaband as the main connection connection.

    Please look in my problem, no response, I would not have studied on my own.

  • In the middle of what I work on Mozilla Firefox, I say does not and I can't do anything until he desides to work.

    For no reason I work on maybe Backpage and the beautiful middle of what I do Mozilla Firefox not working and says "not responding". I use Backpage, my E-mail and the word or works a lot with copy it / stick. I have two emails, a staff at the Verison and company to Yahoo which I use every day.

HP said that there is nothing wrong with the computer, this is the program.

    Start Firefox in Firefox to solve the issues in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is the cause of the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > appearance/themes).

  • Firefox opens and immediately be "not responding" so I can't do anything

    I've never had a problem with Firefox, less the problem of occasional blocking, that would cure a simple force close. I was in Firefox this morning on my MacBook Pro, surfing away as usual. All of a sudden he became unresponsive, so I force closed. Now, when it opens, I see the address bar, the top bar and a page gray - no bookmarks bar or whatever it is now. I get the wheel that turns and can't click on the links at the top to try to get in the preferences... I need help!

    And remove this folder seems to have solved my problem. I am now in service yet. This is the folder which includes the extensions - and they had to be the culprit.

  • I get messages "Not responding" constants and Thunderbird freezes. I did everything suggested on this forum. Nothing helps.

    I've done all that I can find in this forum - in safe mode, change the settings for McAfee, etc, etc, etc. I downloaded Thunderbird again and reinstalled. Nothing helps. I can look at an email but if I try to remove it I get the message "not responding". If I try to go to the next message I get the message "not responding". If I try to do something, while the screen is frozen, it goes gray and I get the message "not responding". Short of changing my email viewer, is there anyway I can fix it.

    @Jennis, what are posting you here to. Contact McAfee, it is not a question of Thunderbird.

  • All few minutes my L500 Statelite begins to lag and freezes

    Just last week, I was in the fight of the problems with Statelite, PSLS9A/L500-025012. Every few minutes, or so it starts to lag and crashes especially on Firefox and IE Web pages. During this period, I can always access Win emails and other programs on the laptop.

    It's frustrating, especially when you're in the middle of a game. Please advise as to what can be done. I tried the defrag and others.

    Thank you.

    Unfortunately, your ad does not offer any relevant info and it is not easy to say why this happens.
    We don t know what you don t in the past, which other applications you use and your operating system configuration.

    Try to start the cleaning action and remove all the unnecessary stuff from your laptop. Check also all the boot options and disable auto-start for all applications that you don't need.

    Start with these simple steps. If the problem occurs again and again maybe is time for any new OS install.

    Sorry, but it is not easy to tell what can be the problem.

  • I just got my computer from Vista to Windows7... Problems with the sites game requiring shockwave remains... Get knocked off line every few minutes... What can I do to stop this? __

    I have problems since I changed my computer from vista to windows7... Sites game requiring shockwave remains... I get knocked off line every few minutes... Why? How can I stop this?

    Hot4Lefteris,
    The first thing I would say (if you have not already done) is to ensure that you have the latest version of Shockwave installed.  If you have still a problem, I would like to run IE without Add-ons and then put only the module Shockwave Player and the test.  Also, follow the other steps listed here and post back with the results.
