When I initialize Firefox startup is slow. After time has passed a script execution error box comes up offering a Chrome based STOP SCRIPT option. If I select this Firefox comes up. Uninstalling Chrome hasn't helped so I suspect I'll have to uninstall / reinstall Firefox. How can I save my favorites list?

This happened

Every time Firefox opened

== When Chrome installed

Start Firefox in Use Troubleshoot Mode in Firefox to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).

See Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems and Troubleshoot issues with plugins like Flash or Java to fix common Firefox problems
