The Firefox becomes "unresponsive" very frequently( at least 4 to 5 times a week). This is very irritating,especially when working on my blog the entire screen freezes and on top of the page against the webpage it says Firefox unresponsive.

Please help Thanks

Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problem.

See "Creating a profile":

If the new profile works then you can transfer files from a previously used profile to the new profile, but be cautious not to copy corrupted files to avoid carrying over problems.
