Firefox Mutiple instances
Most recent Firefox update is screwed up. I am getting >26 instances that locks up mouse etc. I have to shut down with task Manager to recover and the cycle starts all over. It really sucks. Just started with latest update. 130.0.1 64 bit
Used FF for many years. At end of rope. Robert
