ok, everytime i download something the download window pops up, so i let it download and i like to keep it open so i can monitor my downloads. now, the problem is when i close the current firefox browser window and try to re-open a new one. my firefox browser window starts lagging/hangs very bad when i open up a new browser window. i have my settings set up to clear my history everytime i close my firefox, so i was wondering why it does this? is it because my history gets cleared and i still have my download window opened?
