I'm running the latest FF under Win7. Seems that whenever I go to the Merriam-Webster (dot) com site, after a few seconds, my disk activity light goes solid, and the FF CPU usage spike to 10-25%. One time, to regain control of my system (because everything seemed hung) I actually had to resort to the physical power-down switch. Obviously I immediately ran a virus scan upon coming back up (scan showed all okay). Now, if I stay away from Merriam-Webster, FF behaves normally. But it's a damned dictionary site. I occasionally will need to use it or stumble into it. I've used MW in the past without problems. Does anyone know what's going on?

Hi all, I had a firefox account years ago that i forgot about. Ive just switched from google to firefox by downloading ff and when i opened the browser it had all my old bookmarks and things across the top. I deleted that old account and signed into ff using a new email yet my old bookmarks remained. I then did and 'import' from chrome hoping it would overwrite the old things but it did not. So i am now with a new email / account stuck with older bookmarks i do not want, id like to have all my current bookmarks/passwords and the other things ...

What can I do about this?

Thanks
