Go to Tools | Add-ons | Plugins and disable Browserplus.

If Firefox functions properly afterwards, uninstall it, instructions here: http://help.yahoo.com/l/us/yahoo/browserplus/uninstall.html

You can also restart Firefox in Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot Mode which disables extensions, but not plugins. If it works in that configuration, then one of your add-ons is the culprit.

I just opened and had a script running note. It was quite long and referenced ymail which was the page I had left open. The warning window closed after several tries. My computer is running but ymail is very slow

Try updating Java to the latest version which is 1.6.0_24 via Windows Control Panel. You'll see the link to Java in there.
