I keep getting "A web page is slowing your browser".

I use TalkTalk as a provider and their homepage is a succession of AOL news items. Any item I click on after a minute or so gives me this message.... A web page is slowing your browser. Can anyone tell me how to remove it please? I'm on Windows 7 and FF is up to date.

”Webpage is slowing down your browser” This is the new way the browser tells you there is a problem with the script program(s). https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/warning-unresponsive-script?cache=no

Many thanks Fred for this prompt response. I haven't got Spysweeper, but I'll go through the other options.

Then you should change your homepage to just plain Google and see if that slows down or not.

Thanks Westend, just wondering how I can return the Homepage to AOL after checking.

Fred, just tried the "Letting the script run longer" option. However when I type in "about:config" and click I get........ "Navigation to the web page is cancelled"????
