Firefox keeps "Not responding" and my computer freezing

Lately, my Firefox browser has been freezing my entire computer. He repeated to me that it "does not", my mouse turns into the circular blue loading screen, I can't do anything, I can't even open the Task Manager, I have to take out the battery just for my computer turns off.

I scanned with Norton; does not detect anything. I even did the Norton Power Eraser, still nothing. I set Firefox to run the program as administrator and I thought it was fixed, but it wasn't.

I even update my plug-ins and for some reason, your site always tells me that I need to update the same, so I can't even count on that.

I noticed it happens when I'm on a Youtube page. Like when I pause a video.

It opens quickly, it runs quickly, he goes to some fast Web sites. It is this gene that really bothered me and considered me switch to Google Chrome.

If you do not want me, then tell me how to solve this problem.

Try disabling hardware acceleration in Firefox.

Try to start the computer in safe mode Windows with network support (on the startup screen, press F8) as a test to see if it helps in case your system custom drivers or software security are causing issues.

    Help please
    Software opens OK and incoming messages are downloaded, software captures suddenly a "not responding" that requires the user to close the window.
    The software also keeps generating popstate.dat files with nothing in it?
    I tried to disable all the modules and plugins, but makes no difference.
    I have rebuilt the overall messages file - db.sqlite and I have re-installed a fresh copy of 31.2.0 but still the same.

  • Firefox won't launch and causes computer freeze.

    Last week, Firefox has refused to run and, when such an attempt is made, my computer crashes.

    More specifically, when I click on the icon to launch the program, my mouse pointer turns into a small blue circle, indicating that the program is loading, and my drive indicator light turns on. After a few seconds, my mouse pointer returns to normal, the hard drive light darkens, and I can't access all the programs, launch new Manager access to tasks or access the Start button. My only alternative is to turn the power off, and then restart the computer.

    This happens if I use the shortcut in the taskbar or navigate to the exe file and try to run from there.

    This occurs when you try to start Firefox in Mode without failure.

    This happens when loading Vista regularly and when it starts in Mode safe mode with networking.

    A scan of Malware Antibytes comes back clean, as an analysis online of TrendMicro and one from OfficeDepot (I think to pay $149 to have this problem).

    Can anyone help? I much prefer FF to IE, which I'm usin now, but I may have to switch to Chrome.

  • Bloody Hell, I install Firefox 4 beta 11 and nothing is loading the home page, and that's all, firefox is not responding

    I run 3.6.13 I tried to install the beta 4. 11, it downloads and installs, it opens the home page, but's, er beat works but Firefox is not responding, I mean as in nothing, he died, you click anywhere on the toolbar, and it's like a dead dog.

    One possible cause is security software (firewall) that blocks or limits Firefox or plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after the detection of changes (update) for the Firefox program.

    Delete all rules for Firefox in the list of permissions in the firewall and leave your firewall again ask permission to get full unlimited access to the internet for Firefox and the plugin-container.

    Get help with the SuperDrive slot on your Mac - Apple Support loading

    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.
    5. If the disc still does not eject, reset the System Management Controller (SMC) and repeat steps 1 to 4.
    6. If the disc still does not eject, Contact Apple or an provider of services authorized Apple, or make an appointment with a Store Apple Store for further assistance.

    This happened several times since I got this computer in December.  Lines of color will appear in horizonally across the screen and the computer freezes.  After I have turn it off and start it again, there is no problem.  But is it a problem waiting for one big from appearing in the future?

  • After the restart, firefox starts slowly, a script is not responding and answers continually.

    Hi everyone, I have a true glance.

    My firefox has always worked fine before, but I had to do a factor reset on my laptop and now there is a serious problem.

    After installed, firefox works fine, but after a restart of the computer, it hangs, becomes sensitive and always this message after only 2-3 mins "script is unresponsive script: chrome://browser/content/tabbrowser.xml.2425 ' either press on continue or stop the script does not stop at his lack of reaction

    This problem occurs in Firefox and Windows safe mode. I do not have Add ons installed and I also scanned for malware and there is not. I tried to reinstall clean without result.

    Any help much appreciated!

    In this case the Firefox homepage integrated display and no other site?

    In order to exclude Flash as a potential culprit, could you try one or two of the following ways:

    (1) disable the Safe_mode of the Flash Player plugin.

    The following pages provide different ways to do this:

    Flash must unload completely from memory (Firefox restart might help) before it would take effect.

    (2) the value of Flash Click-to-Play ("ask to activate").

    This will delay the Flash start on a page, until you approve, which will distinguish the questions generated by Flash to load and layout problems.

    To set 'Ask to activate', open the page modules using either:

    • CTRL + SHIFT + a
    • Firefox orange (or the Tools menu) button > Add ons

    In the left column, click on Plugins. Search 'Shockwave Flash' and always change 'enable' to 'ask to activate '.

    When you visit a site that wants to use the Flash, you should see a notification in the address bar icon and one of the following: a link in a black rectangle in the page or an information bar slides between the toolbar and in the page area.

    Any improvement in these scenarios?
