I keep getting "Firefox Not Responding". It is getting really old!!

I am getting really tired of getting a "Firefox Not Responding" while on the internet. I tried resetting Firefox AND Uninstalling and Re-installing. All those did was lose all my favorites for me. It still doesn't respond well.

After a Reset, Firefox should have created a folder on your desktop named Old Firefox Data. You should be able to recover your bookmarks from there once Firefox is running a little better.

To rule out Flash as a potential culprit, could you try one or both of the following:

(1) Disable the Protected Mode feature of the Flash Player plugin.

The following pages provide different ways to do that:

Flash needs to completely unload from memory (restarting Firefox might help) before this would take effect.

(2) Set Flash to Click-to-Play ("Ask to Activate").

This will delay Flash from starting on a page until you approve it, which will help distinguish Flash-generated issues from page load and layout issues.

To set "Ask to Activate", open the Add-ons page using either:

  • Ctrl+Shift+a
  • orange Firefox button (or Tools menu) > Add-ons

In the left column, click Plugins. Look for "Shockwave Flash" and change "Always Activate" to "Ask to Activate".

When you visit a site that wants to use the Flash, you should see a notification icon in the address bar and one of the following: a link in a black rectangle in the page or an infobar sliding down between the toolbar area and the page.

Any improvement in these scenarios?
