Firefox crashes frequently. Between crashes, I constantly get 'Shockwave player may be busy or not responding' warnings and everything stops for a while.

I think I've tried everything. Start up in safe mode, updated firefox and extensions and even shockwave and flash from Adobe and still does this.

Please help

OK, I'm just to damn stupid to do this. I went to that first page you suggested earlier today and most of the suggestions tell me to do something that I can't even figure out how to do it. I don't have an 'options' button on my menu, wheN I put webgl.disabled into the filter box, the whole page goes blank and just sits there. I did uninstall NVIDIA since I don't use it at all - all other programs I do use.

I may just have to do away with Firefox and I'm sorry. But I've been thru the ringer with these support pages that are more technical than this 66 yr old man can understand.

If anyone has a simpler idea I'd like to hear it. I do like Firefox alot!!
