Why have I begun I receiving so many unresponsive script messages with firefox?

In the last 3 months I have begun receiving unresponsive script notices all the time.

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]]

Firefox initally opens fine , but when I try to open another tab Firefox hangs or I get an unresponsive script message

firefox initally opens fine right to my homepage. Then a few minutes later it starts hanging and I cannot scroll or do anything until it connects. Similarly when I try to open a new tab, the new tab either hangs forever, or I get an unresponsive script error message. I have tried resetting firefox and starting firefox in safe mode. nothing seems to help.

Every time I start Firefox 5.0 I get an unresponsive script error - how do I stop it?

I upgraded Firefox to 5.0. Now, every time I try to open the browser, it hangs up and then gives me an unresponsive script error. How do I make it stop?

See: http://kb.mozillazine.org/Unresponsive_Script_Warning
Bear in mind that Firefox 5.0 is still in BETA, so there are bound to be problems with it still.
So do your bit and report the issue using the Feedback option. The full candidate is slated for release on June 21.

Firefox will no longer open. getting "unresponsive script" warning. Script:chrome://tavgp/content/libs/include.js:595

I have been using Firefox as my home page for years. This week it will not open. Instead I get a window per question above.

This issue can be caused by an AVG extension (tavgp) that isn't working properly.

Firefox wont load frontieville its says unresponsive script

WHEN I TRY TO PLAY FRONTIERVILLE IT GETS AS FAR AS WHERE I CLICK TO PLAY THEN FREEZES AND I GET THE UNRESPONSIVE BOX POP UP.AND NO MATTER HOW OFTEN I TRY IT WONT GO ANY FURTHER

http://kb.mozillazine.org/Standard_diagnostic_%28Firefox%29

I am getting this unresponsive script message when googling and its causing firefox to freeze "chrome:/wrc/content/common/scripts/bal.js:854" - Any advice?

When I try an google certain web sites including "NFL" firefox freezes and I get the unresponsive script chrome:/wrc/content/common/scripts/bal.js:854". I uninstalled Google Chrome but still have the same problem.

Thanks to philipp: I disabled the avast addon (from) when I updated to avast 9.0.2008, and the unresponsive script has stopped freezing firefox during google searches.
PS, I added this addon in it's place, Trustwave SecureBrowsing: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/m86security-secure-browsing/eula/224305?src=search
It's not too bad, and seems to be more thorough than the avast addon.
I also use the web of trust (WOT) addon.

Unresponsive Script errors popups in Firefox 14.01

Since upgrading from Firefox 13.01 to 14.01, Firefox is taking a long time to launch and I am receiving multiple unresonsive script error popups when it tries to launch. I have the same extensions installed that I had in 13.01 and all are compatible with 14.01. Again this issue ONLY started when upgrading to 14.01. I have tried to determine what extension is the problem and turn it off, however when I launch Firefox again, another unresonsive script error popup occurs with a different extension. I'll remove that one and it popups again about a another different one. This is crazy! I have even tried a complete clean install, with no luck. What is the problem?

I use Roboform and the first unresponsive script error popup is about Roboform. Their tech support just emailed me about an hour ago and ask if I had Trusteer Rapport installed on my system (https://www.trusteer.com/product/trusteer-rapport) and I said yes. They instructed me to Stop Rapport, which is a setting Rapport has, and relaunch Firefox 14.01 and see if the unresponsive script error popup returns and it did not! They then told me to do a complete uninstall (all user settings) and re-download Trusteer Rapport from their website and install again and see if the unresponsive script error popup returns. They said it should not. However after doing a clean reinstall of Trusteer Rapport, however the popups came back :(
I emailed Trusteer about this issue and I am waiting for a response. Roboform tech support responded after I told them it did not work by saying only that they are aware of the issue with Trusteer Rapport with nothing more said in their email.
I only know that Trusteer Rapport is a MUST HAVE security software and I have had it for years and it has never caused problems and that the version of Roboform I have is current and was the SAME version that was installed when using Firefox 13.01 and Roboform did not cause these popups in 13.01
So, this evening, I did another clean uninstall of Trusteer Rapport AND a clean uninstall of Roboform and relaunched Firefox 14.01 and the only unresponsive script error popups where from another add-on extension called WorldIP. No other popups occurred.
With that being said, I can say that Firefox 14.01 is causing issues and this needs to be fixed asap.
Thoughts?

I had to uninstall firefox since it was causing so many problems with my computer. I was using the latest version 18. What is the problem?

I have had nothing but problems since I installed the latest version of Firefox version 18. It hangs up my computer no matter what I am doing. Even if I am not using the browser. I uninstalled it three times and the problems just seemed to be getting worse. I finally uninstalled it and did not reinstall it again. I am not going to use it again until the problems are fixed. I also don't know what funmoods is or whatever it is that replaced my google home page. I don't like software deciding what services I should use. I have been a firefox user for over 15 years. I have never had problems like this before. I have switched to Safari. It works without interfering with the other tasks I am doing on my computer. I don't know what version 18 did but the previous version of firefox I was using was perfectly fine. I had no problems whatsoever with it. It appears as if this version was not sufficiently tested. Also my daughter is having the same problems with her computer and they all started with the new version. So it isn't just me. At least give us the option of going back to the previous version and asking us if we want to upgrade when a new one comes out. However, I have never had these problems in the past with any version of firefox I installed. I like the features of firefox but cannot afford to keep rebooting my computer. It seems that firefox gets hung up and then hangs the computer up and I can't do anything else even if I am not using it. It seems to stay on in the background and hang everything up. Please fix this.

It most definitely is the browser that is causing most of the problems. I have used Firefox so long, I can't even remember. Maybe since its beginning. But today is a sad day. I gave up on it. I can't accomplish anything and end up spending hours troubleshooting. I see I am not alone. I am so sick of it "not responding." It's simply not worth it to spend so much time trying to make the thing work, so I can actually do something. Installed, removed, reinstalled numerous times, and I can't fix your software on my Win 7 Pro machine. No problems with IE or Chrome. So. as much as I hate Google Update, Chrome has won the test. Sad, sad day for me to lose Firefox, but it just does not work on the Win 7 machine. I don't have the same issues with the XP machine and have exactly all the same add-ons. Keep it up developers and you will have no Win 7 users at all.

Any reports of Firefox 19.0.0 causing XP to eratically causing a reboot or the system, or crashing and lockups

XP erratically, and at random, shuts down, and reboots for no apparent reason. Will run for varying lengths of time between failures. Any reports of Firefox 19.0.0 causing XP to eratically cause a reboot or the system crashing and lockups. Seems to have begun after installing Fire Fox 19.0.0

The Reset Firefox feature can fix many issues by restoring Firefox to its factory default state while saving your essential information.
Note: ''This will cause you to lose any Extensions, Open websites, and some Preferences.''
To Reset Firefox do the following:
#Go to Firefox > Help > Troubleshooting Information.
#Click the "Reset Firefox" button.
#Firefox will close and reset. After Firefox is done, it will show a window with the information that is imported. Click Finish.
#Firefox will open with all factory defaults applied.

Why does Firefox have so many unresposive script errors?

Firefox 22.0 (on Mac) seems to be a dog. It continually stops responding and gives so many "A script on this page may be busy, or it may have stopped responding" errors.
Either Facebook have done something, or there is an incompatibility between Flash, Firefox and Facebook or something. (Flash 11.7.700.225)
I have had this before with other Firefox builds - but this time it is occurring multiple times each time I am on Facebook
Thinking of trying Chrome if this keeps up - although I am reluctant to hand yet even more privacy info over to Google.
The only plugin I use is Flash. I run the default theme, and the only add-ons I have are Adblock Plus 2.2.4, Adblock Plus Pop-up Add-on 0.8 and the English (Australian) Dictionary 2.1.2
I wish each so-called 'security upgrade' came with a message that 'this version is a dog' - it is not only causing issues it is not compatible and has disable my "Easy Youtube Video Downloader 6.8"
As per the Mozilla Help I have disabled "hardware acceleration" and also changed the value for "dom.max_script_run_time" to 20 - neither helped in any way.
Far from happy Mozilla

Thank you for your "copy and paste" reply. It is very obvious that you did NOT read my original post.
If you had you would have noticed:
a) I stated: "I run the default theme"
and that
b)I stated: "I have disabled "hardware acceleration""
c)I stated: "changed the value for "dom.max_script_run_time" to 20 "
(both of which are in response to the linked help article that you recommended - and neither of which did any good)
d) I also stated: "The only plugin I use is Flash"
(which is the latest up-to-date version and if Firefox cannot run with Flash it is of no use as a browser)
I will try "Safe Mode" and post how that works after browsing Facebook - but it should not be necessary to do this.
I had reported similar issues with Firefox two or three builds back (Firefox 19.0.2) then the issue was fixed for a couple of builds - and now with the release of Firefox 22.0 (on Mac) it is as bad or worse than ever.

Had to start Firefox in safe mode cause it kept crashing after i deleted the file. Now Fire fox Crashes every time I open it and I have to put it in safe mode just to use it, also it's not syncing with my iPad.

If you use Norton software, try disabling your Norton extensions. As of last week, there were severe compatibility issues with Firefox 24.

Hello JF.
I don't think that extension is supported. I believe Firefox can only read .json and .html.

Thanks to all of you for responding. I appreciate your suggestions. At the same time, I just want '''FIREFOX TO REMOVE THE OLYMPIC FLAME''' which serves no purpose but to be annoying.
Is a cutesy moving flame really serving any purpose? NOOOOO!!!!
