Hi, I've been having a weird issue with Firefox Quantum recently. When it was revealed I downloaded it and it worked great, fast and responsive, but after some recent updates I keep getting some issues on Youtube.com. It freezes the site and after a while, it says that the script is not responding. When I click on "Stop it" the top part of the site works, but the bottom videos fail to load so only a part of the site works. Youtube videos work fine. I tried deleting youtube cookies, cache, but it doesn't help. As I said, it worked fine before some updates.

Try : Go to the Firefox 3 Bar Menu --> Help ? --> Troubleshooting Information Page and take a look in the Accessibility section if accessibility is set to "true" there. if yes, go to the Firefox 3 Bar Menu --> Options --> Privacy & Security panel and under Permissions check the setting to Prevent Accessibility Services from accessing your browser. Restart Firefox

So running 58 beta or Nightly has it's risks and that is one of them which could be fixed tonight.

Hi, thanks for your reply. Unfortunately, it doesn't help :/ I forgot to add this to the post - the issue has been occurring for the past 1-2 weeks or something like that.

I'll file the bug report, thanks :)
