Same script keeps on crashing when Firefox is left stationary on Google.com

So basically, I leave my Firefox on www.google.com when I am done with Firefox (don't judge me, lol) so I can easily get up and going once I need to use the Internet again. The problem is that after I leave and return, I always find that the same script has crashed and Firefox along with my entire system acts sluggish after I stop the script. I know the script has something to do with Google because of the script name but I want to know whether the script crash is caused by Firefox itself, an addon, or my computer. I have pasted the script below.

Update 1: Really.....? No one.....?

The name of the script is not complete, but it is likely a packed script with hardly any line brakes, so it won't be possible to see where exactly it goes wrong.
