Warning Unresponsive script

Firefox App responsiveness

Warning Unresponsive script, this popup causes many issues as I use many tabs and it will get the popup and the only choice I have is to say continue, that then redirects me to that tab, so what I was doing gets interrupted. I have to go and find the tab I was working in when I may get another popup. I've had it where I've had popup under other popups, I tried the extending the time but that seemed to make things worse.

I need to totally disable that popup, tell me how.

Firefox I'm getting nothing done, Do I really need to use chrome?

I’ve run into this too, especially when a heavy website keeps scripts running in the background. Tweaking Firefox’s script timeout can help, but I also found that checking which sites consistently trigger it makes a big difference—it’s often one or two tabs slowing everything down rather than the browser itself.
