Start Firefox in Safe Mode {web link} While you are in safe mode; Press the <Alt> or <F10> key to bring up the tool bar. Followed by;

Windows; Tools > Options Linux; Edit > Preferences Mac; application name > Preferences

Then Advanced > General. Look for and turn off Use Hardware Acceleration.

Poke around safe web sites and see if there is still a problem. Then restart.

No I turned off Hardware Accelleration a long time ago.

Also turned it off in Flash.

But it appears to have gotten turned on again. Maybe when I RESET, and lost all my Add-ons... FF really really sucks. But its MARGINALLY more functional than Safari...

more options

Nope. After turning it off, FF became NOT RESPONDING. Restarted, and happened again. Using Safe Mode now.

And why can I make this data entry box wider when ENTERING data, but not when READING the replies? Kind of a useless feature to allow someone to format to line length, but then hard code a much smaller line length when the reply is seen on the web page.

Well, its 8 o clock and I have ....... around with this piece of trash for SIX HOURS today. goodbye until tomorrow

Are you capable of asking for support without treating the support volunteers here so poorly?

more options

I'm not bashing the responders. Just the freaking uselessness of FF...

more options

What program is providing the reports you are posting?

Did you try trashing Firefox and downloading it again from: https://www.mozilla.org/firefox/all/

In another thread you said this problem occurred when you restored a previous session. Does Firefox behave more normally if you do NOT restore a previous session?

more options

At some point when using FF it becomes Not Responding.

I suspect its a Flash / script problem.

I have loaded the latest version of Flash the other day.

When Session Manager tries to reload a session, I think that some scripts are not being handled properly by FF and they get stuck.

more options

Oh, the Macintosh CONSOLE app shows these error messages.

And I just RESET FF this evening.

I'm getting similar error messages in Console. I think it may be due to my xmarks add-in. Any chance you were using xmarks?

more options

No using xmarks.

In fact the other day it went slow and then Not Responding while in SAFE MODE !!!

Need to start a thread about that...
