Ever since I got 133.03 my Dell cpu freezes a lot. Over the last hour it froze 15 times. This is terrible reliability.

I hired Dell Tech Support and they checked my software and there were no issues. I have run advance Norton features and there are no problems. Therefore the issue is NOT with my 20 month Dell computer.

Firefox has always been reliable until late August. For four weeks it would freeze and lock up. by the end of Sept it was slightly better and then fine in November. Now it only freezes, put the mouse over the image and it freezes. Play with it for a while and it unlocks.

I am totally fed up with Firefox. I'll be starting my taxes soon and year end things and can't afford to have all these issues and rebooting to help eliminate the issue.

When is Firefox tech support going to help me? When is Firefox going to fix the issue? After Christmas I am looking into the Microsoft software......enough is enought!

Maybe you get too many ads. Do you have an ad-blocker? If not, just google one and add it (uBlock is a good one, but choose whatever). Everyone should have an adblocker, internet ads are terrible.

Dell is not a CPU-brand. Even if Dell may be a good brand, it doesn't mean all their PCs are powerful. Do you have at least 16GB RAM? And a CPU with at least 4 cores?

Other than that, browsers are not very demanding, and so the issue might be more general. But it's no big deal either to switch between different browsers if one is having hick-ups... It's just a single click (after installation).

P.S.: I'm just another user who is seeing lots of questions without responses. Btw., if you describe what you mean by freezes a little more, others might be able to help you better.

I'll check out the ad blockers.

My computer has 24 GB of RAM and 7 cores so that should not be the problem.

Do you have the same issue with Firefox in Troubleshoot Mode?
