Firefox freezes while downloading, watching a video, actually while doing anything unless you keep the cursor moving. This problem has been happening for years with no solution from Mozilla. I am using or should I say trying to use the Latest ver 50.1.0 and am having the problem now while typing. I have used other Mozilla based browsers like Waterfox and not had this problem only with Firefox. Come on Mozilla, lets get your act together. No other browser does this, only Firefox.
