On the SinSnap website, when I try to use the recorder to record a song, the page freezes and won't respond at all. The page can be closed by using Task Manager to close Firefox or, sometimes, by repeatedly clicking the "x" in the upper corner. No other web page links will function at all. Firefox functions normally on all other websites. This just started after updating to Version 50.0b2. Prior to then, all was well with the website.
