I have three computers in front of me . Had problems with firefox hanging and then not responding. Uninstalled and reinstalled. Still had same issue. Did some minor tweaks with asc4 and they all functioned again. Now only one will close my stumbleupon toolbar when firefox is closed, even though in options the box is unchecked for this purpose?

-> Tap ALT key or press F10 to show the Menu Bar

-> go to Help Menu -> select Restart with Add-ons Disabled

Firefox will close then it will open up with just basic Firefox. Now do this:

-> go to View Menu -> Toolbars -> select StumbleUpon Toolbar

-> go to Tools Menu -> Options -> Privacy -> History section -> Firefox will: select "Use Custom Settings for History" -> REMOVE Checkmark from Permanent Private Browsing mode -> place Checkmarks on:

1) Remember my Browsing History 2) Remember Download History 3) Remember Search and Form History 4) Accept Cookies from sites -> click Exceptions... button and click "Remove All Sites" 4a) Accept Third-party Cookies -> Keep Until : select They Expire

-> REMOVE CHECKMARK from CLEAR HISTORY WHEN FIREFOX CLOSES

-> When using the Location Bar, suggest: select "History and Bookmarks"

-> go to Tools Menu -> Options -> Security -> place Checkmarks on:

1) Warn me when sites try to install add-ons 2) Block reported attack sites 3) Block reported web forgeries 4) Remember Passwords for sites

-> Click OK on Options window -> Restart Firefox

Check and tell if its working.

-> When you use Clear Recent History feature, make sure NOT to select Cookies, Active Logins, Site Preferences, Forms and Search History

-> If you use Privacy Cleanup Softwares like CCleaner, don't select Firefox in the Applications List. They might be responsible for Deleting Firefox Session and other Settings.
