I have to restart Firefox every 10 minutes because scripts keep popping up and hanging up my browser. I tried installing a script blocker app, but then the browser didn't work at all. Many different sites cause script problems, but two of the worst are a Facebook statistics script, and a "chrome" script. Anyone know how to fix this? It's really making my work difficult.

I'm running the latest Firefox on a Windows machine.

Cheers, Jeff

Yes, using a "script blocker" like NoScript will break the average website now-a-days. Over the last 8 to 10 years the "average website" has started using a lot more JavaScript (especially for "Social" features added to webpages) and 'calling' those scripts from a larger range of domains. In order to use NoScript effectively and still be able to view websites the user needs to spend a little time learning how to use NoScript. (Assuming that is what you are using.) You can't just install the "blocker" and expect 'things' to work as you wish.

Can you provide the context of that "chrome" script? IOW, the complete URI address of that "chrome" script.

+1, argee 100% with the-edmeister.

NoScript it is a little aggressive but in time you will see that is the "best cop on the web".

thank you

A script with a chrome: URI is about a built-in Firefox script, so using an extension to manage JavaScripts used by web pages won't help in this case.

Firefox uses the "chrome://" protocol to access its own internal files and also access files from extensions (no relation with Google Chrome).

Any related error messages in the Browser Console?

I have this problem too. Never used to have the problem, don't remember how many updates ago it started though.

I've done a clean install of Win7 and can't even restore my bookmarks because "a script stops working." I have nothing installed on this computer yet except my antivirus, Firefox and Flash. But Flash doesn't even show up in my Add Ons to try the fix I found in another thread.

This doesn't happen in any other browser. Before my clean install I had pretty much moved to another browser because of this problem, but I really prefer Firefox...when it isn't always having a script stop working and freezing up which is becoming pretty much all the time.

Is it time to bite the bullet and give up on Firefox? I've been using it for what seems forever but the script stopping thing and locking up Firefox is making me crazy. And if I can't even restore my bookmarks without a script stopping and locking things up, I will have to use another browser.

This is the script that stops when trying to restore my bookmarks: chrome/browser/places/treeView.js:1120

Please help with a fix for this script stopping problem.

Thanks.

Try to press Continue a few times to see if that will allow the script to finish properly.

How many bookmarks are in the backup? Is this an HTML backup or a JSON backup?

The name of a JSON bookmarks backup file includes a total item count (folders and separators included) and an hash value to prevent saving the same backup more than once.

  • bookmarks-YYYY-MM-DD_<item count>_<hash>.jsonlz4.
