4.0.1 has improvement over 4.0 but pages still hang. Not as long as 4.0 but there. Insted of minutes, now about a minute. The problem is still with the Shockwave Flash plugin.

In 4.0 pages hung for long period of time (minutes) giving the impression that FF had locked. The problem, Shockwave Flash plugin, older to current. In 4.0.1 problem still exists just not as long and with the same plugin conflict.

Firefox beginning with 4.0 can no longer be placed in any "Applications" sub folder, must be upper most "Applications" folder. Example; Applications ➢ Internet ➢ browsers ➢ Firefox 4.0.1.app, hangs. Applications ➢ Firefox 4.0.1.app, no apparent problem. If your Firefox 4.xx is in any other folder, drag it to "Applications" only. At least that seems to be the fix for me.
