30.0.2 won't restart -- Unresponsive Script "STOP" button not working

more options

Why does FF need a second update so soon? Just spend about 3 hours trying to get it restarted.

Several times, after waiting 10 minutes or so, got an Unresponsive Script error -- but nothing happened when I clicked on STOP.

FF has a chronic inability to restart a previous session -- it needs to handle runaway scripts in a different way.

And why does the Troubleshooter Addon always need to re install itself, every time I post something?

And now getting Kernel hangups. Had to shutdown via the power button. Getting more Kernal problems now, in Safe Mode:

THIS IS FIREFOX BEING FORCE QUIT -- BTW, WHY HASN'T THIS BUG BEEN FIXED YET ??? 9/19/14 4:24:02 AM kernel firefox (map: 0xf3b83d8) triggered DYLD shared region unnest for map: 0xf3b83d8, region 0x7fff81000000->0x7fff81200000. While not abnormal for debuggers, this increases system memory footprint until the target exits.

This problem with restarting & reloading the previous session exists both when using the Session Manager addon, and when FF tries to Restore Session using the built in restoration function.

Tried restarting yet again. After 5 minutes of FF using over 100% CPU time, the Unresponsive Script message came up. But I was unable to even get to it, because the Spinner came up on top of the dialogue box.
