In all fairness iv been a supporter of Firefox for over ten years but this takes the biscuit, Firefox it taking up to and over 5 Gigs of memory and when it does it just slows the whole thing down, iv never been so dissatisfied in my life with Firefox.. Iv tried to add a task manager to find the problem but its no longer avail, but chrome has one built in, chrome is quite happy now sitting at 1.2 gigs, and bouncing along, bye bye Firefox, now u have done it . And to add to the insult its not even possible to take video calls on messenger without a restart of the computer after. And before you carry on with have you got all the drivers updated, check out chrome its working fine...

do this please : go to the Firefox 3 Bar Menu --> Options --> Privacy & Security panel and under Permissions check (put a tick in the box) the setting to Prevent Accessibility Services from accessing your browser.

Monitor in Task Manager. Should stay below 2 gigs. If excessive then do below and monitor and change if need to...Test and go up again , go back down, it will eventually get a zone you and it can live with.

Go the 3 Bar Menu then Options --> General --> Performance and untick everything. change the recommended size lower then see how it runs. Note: 1 = No Multiprocessor = slow again. Try 2 Restart Firefox after making these changes please.
