My laptops hangs when I start firefox. Can not open any other program till I close firefox. Pl help

drankit

I can not open any other program while firefox is on. When i minimize it, it doesn't open after clicking the logo on task bar. Just a round waiting ring comes. Task manager also hangs when i try to close firefox via it.

You are using a beta version that is having problems.

Start Firefox in Safe Mode {web Link} by holding down the <Shift>
(Mac=Options)
key, and then starting Firefox. A small dialog should appear. Click Start In Safe Mode (not Refresh).

Is the problem still there?
