Firefox freezing up; will not shut down.

I did the refresh thing and so far, so good.

Good to hear!!

Same here, I switched flash to be "always ask to run" and Firefox has been happier. As a bonus, videos no longer auto play when I open a new page


I have done it in the past. I generally go to Task Manager, open the Processes tab and close the process named plugin-container.exe first. That closes all Firefox plugins (Flash, Java, etc) and will sometimes fix things.

I am running Firefox 36.0.4 on my Windows Vista PC and it has never given me any problems... The only thing I could suggest if all else is failing it to uninstall and reinstall Firefox, although this would mean that you'd lose all your bookmarks and active log-ins.

I did the reinstall, but I did not uninstall the old Firefox, I assumed that the new install would delete the old one. My computer only lists one version of Firefox in my list of programs installed so I hope I am OK.

I uninstalled Firefox and then re-downloaded it and I still had all my bookmarks and log-ins.

the only time I have a freeze up is when I'm using youtube.

I have a problem with FF not showing prices on For Life Out Here | Tractor Supply Co. . Does anyone else?

None of the other browsers I've tried, give me any issues. I went to FF and Waterfox years ago because others were flawed, especially IE, but it seems the tables have turned.

I see prices on there with Firefox. Try clearing the cache and the cookies for that site (https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/delete-cookies-remove-info-websites-stored)

I'm not have any problems seeing the prices at TSC either. Are you using the most current version (36.0.4) of Firefox?
