For the last 2 days, Firefox has been constantly in a "processing" mode, stopping/starting. I have started in the safe mode and I have reset Firefox to no avail. While the revolving circle (processing symbol?) is active, there is a message at the top of my screen indicating that Firefox is "not responding."

What are your PC's specs? You know, who made it, how old it is, how much RAM is has, blah blah blah....

Also, how long has this problem existed? Did something happen that might have triggered it?

The computer is an HP, and about 4 years old. Intel i3 chip, running Windows 7 Home. I have not had any problems with the system, nor have I made any modifications. I was away from the office for about 10 days, with the computer shut down. Firefox has been like this since I rebooted. Thanks for looking into this issue.
