Firefox 4 hangs while downloading files, sometimes get an error saying Script: chrome://mozapps/content/downloads/download.xml:68 is busy or may have stopped responding, how can I disable this script?

While downloading files Firefox 4 freezes (started with 3.5) and sometimes I get a window that says Script: chrome://mozapps/content/downloads/download.xml:68 has stopped responding or is busy and asks if I want to stop script or ignore. I have looked through about:config and don't see a way to disable the script and keep it disabled.

That is a problem with an AVG extension (Tools > Add-ons > Extensions)

Looks like itunes was still trying to communicate with my iphone and got confused when it couldnt find it. Found this in another post and it worked great.
Solution:
Make sure you are not connected to the internet and then open itunes. Sync your phone and then enable the internet again. Then stay connected to the internet and close your itunes and reopen it. Bam problem solved.

Script: chrome://mozapps/content/downloads/download.xml:68... Downloading files is really bad. Its like the whole process is out of sync. Rest of FF freezes up while downloads proceed.

This script is the problem
Script: chrome://mozapps/content/downloads/download.xml:68

What is the status of this bug? This is killing me. I am about to pitch FireFox but really don't want to. This needs to get fixed. (I am running FF 5.0 on Mac OS X 10.6.7 but it was happening on FF 3.6.n and 4.0 as well)

In some downloads I get an error message as js doesn't work: a script on this page may be busy, or it may have stopped responding, script file is: file:///C:/Program%20Files/Mozilla%20Firefox/components/nsExtensionManager.js:623

This is the entire message I get, but if click "stop" or "continue" nothing is fixed and the message is repeating forever...
A script on this page may be busy, or it may have stopped responding. You can stop the script now, or you can continue to see if the script will complete.

How this can be fixed

I encountered this issue with Win 7 but fixed it by doing the following: Open up AVG and then click on Tools / Advanced settings. On the bottom of the list should be AVG Security Toolbar, click on it. There should be an option to Repair the toolbar.

Since V.6, I've been getting this message when I download: Script: chrome://mozapps/content/downloads/downloads.js:1203 I have Mac 1.83GHz Core Duo 2GBram

Beginning with Version 6 and now with Version 7, I've been getting a hang and this message when I download:

Hi,
Please try couple of probable solutions as mentioned below:
Solution 1:
1. Close Elements.
2. Launch the Photoshop Elements Welcome Screen and hold down Cmnd+ alt + shift as you click Editor.
3. Continue to hold the keys until you see a message box asking if you want to delete Photoshop Elements settings file; click Yes. Elements will open with default preferences.
Solution 2: In case any network printer is attached try to launch without network or printer uninstall or make different printer as default.
Now launch PSE and check if it works.

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
See [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] and [[Troubleshooting plugins]]
If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all your extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
You can use "Disable all add-ons" on the ''Safe mode'' start window.
You have to close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (on Mac: "Firefox > Quit")

Try to delete a possible user.js file and numbered prefs-##.js files and rename (or delete) the prefs.js file to reset all prefs to the default value including prefs set via user.js and prefs that are no longer supported in the current Firefox release.

Whenever I try to "clear recent history" in Firefox 6.0, I get a messages saying a script ("chrome://browser/content/sanitize.js:133") is busy or has stopped responding. How can I remedy this?

Whenever I try to "clear recent history," which I try to do after every browsing session, I get a message saying "A script on this page may be busy or it may have stopped responding. You can stop the script now, or you can continue to see if the script will complete. Script: chrome://browser/content/sanitize.js:133" I used to get this periodically before I upgraded to Firefox 6.0 but now I get it every time I try to clear my recent history. This happens on both my home and work computers and I'm using Firefox 6.0 and a Windows XP Professional SP2 operating system on each computer. How can I remedy this?

That can be caused by clearing the cookies via [[Clear Recent History]].
* Firefox/Tools > Options > Privacy > Firefox will: "Use custom settings for history" > [X] Clear history when Firefox closes > Settings
* Firefox > History > Clear Recent History or Tools > Clear Recent History
Try to exclude the cookies to see if that helps. 
Let all cookies expire when you close Firefox to remove unwanted cookies and keep the ones with an allow exception. 
Make sure that you do not clear the "Site Preferences" as that will remove all exceptions.
* Tools > Options > Privacy > Cookies: "Keep until": "I close Firefox"
If you use [[Clear Recent History]] to clear the cookies then Firefox also tries to clear the cookies from plugins like Flash and starts a plugin-container process for each plugin and that can add extra time and can cause an unresponsive script error to appear.

I get the following error message when firefox is starting to run Script: chrome://global/content/bindings/textbox.xml:146 so what can be done
