FireFox is hanging on me periodically with 100% CPU usage. I have every add on and plugin disabled. In safe mode I don't have the problem. Not sure what to do next since I've disabled all add-ons and plug-ins.

Okay I fixed this by turning off "Use hardware acceleration when available" in the "Advanced" Options. I did have to restart FireFox for the change to take effect.
