I updated firefox hoping to stop a script problem with tabs, but it is still happening. When I go to close a tab at times I get a script error message. After choosing stop script, individual tabs won't close until I restart firefox.

This is what the box says when it happens...

A script on this page may be busy, or it may have stopped responding. You can stop the script now, or you can continue to see if the script will complete.

Script: chrome://browser/content/tabbrowser.xml:1628

I did all that both before and after I updated firefox. I also went through the help/troubleshooting section and tried various other things too.

I still have this happen often. At least once a day, if not more.
