I Use Private Browsing Always, and Still Get Sanitize.js:136 Error

All add-ons, extensions, plug-ins, and Firefox itself (v. 7.0.1) are up-to-date. I ALWAYS use Private Browsing, but still get the chrome://browser/content/sanitize.js:136 error. After "exiting" Firefox, Firefox refuses to close right away. I either wait for it to close, or I have to use the Task Manager to shut it down by force. Firefox is also using phenomenal amounts of Memory or CPU at times. Tonight, after closing Firefox out and literally 10 minutes later, I got the above Sanitize error. There have been other javascript errors ever since updating to v. 7 of Firefox, but I don't remember them offhand. I get MANY of them while using Facebook, but lately haven't even visited Facebook. I haven't seen any other users post this particular problem while using Private Browsing, so thought I'd give it a whirl. It's driving me insane and I just don't know what to do to correct the situation. Thanks for your replies!

Hi, cor-el, and thanks for your reply. I do remember at one point in time (was quite a while ago) when the Plugin Container was a real problem. If I remember correctly the problem I was having, Plugin Container would still be running in Task Manager after closing out Firefox (sometimes even more than one Plugin Container). Looking over the link for Plugin-container you provided, I checked to see how mine are set and they are all set at "false."
As far as Clear Recent History, I can't. My Firefox browser is set for Permanent Private Browsing and I see nothing to clear.
Today, I've used Facebook and took screenshots of the js errors I get there. These errors virtually make Firefox unusable. By this, I mean, it locks up and becomes unresponsive. See attached.

  • Why when using private browsing does Safari still remember websites visited?

    Even when private browsing is selected on my MacBook and iPad2, websites visited are remembered and displayed in history.  Why is this?

    Hi Graham,
    Welcome to the Support Communities!  Is it possible that you have some Safari windows open as private browsing, and others not?  See the overview of private browsing below (see the note I've highlighted in bold):
    Safari 8 (Yosemite): Use Private Browsing windows
    http://support.apple.com/kb/PH19216
    Use Private Browsing windows in Safari
    When you use Private Browsing windows, Safari doesn’t save your browsing history, and it asks websites you visit not to track you.
    Use Private Browsing:
    Choose File > New Private Window, or switch to a Safari window that’s already using Private Browsing. A window that’s using Private Browsing has a dark address and search field with white text.
    When you use a Private Browsing window:
    Each tab in the window is isolated from the others, so websites you view in one tab can’t track your browsing in other tabs.
    Safari doesn’t remember the webpages you visit or your AutoFill information.
    Safari doesn’t store your open webpages in iCloud, so they aren’t shown when you view all your open tabs from other devices.
    Your recent searches aren’t included in the results list when you use the address and search field.
    Items you download aren’t included in the downloads list. (The items do remain on your computer.
    Safari doesn’t remember changes to your cookies or other website data. Safari also asks websites and others who provide those sites with content (including advertisers) not to keep track of your browsing, although it is up to the websites to honor this request.
    Plug-ins that support Private Browsing stop storing cookies and other tracking information.
    Websites can’t modify information stored on your device, so services normally available at such sites may work differently until you turn off Private Browsing.
    Note:   None of the above applies in other Safari windows you may have open that don’t use Private Browsing.
    Stop using Private Browsing:
    Close the Private Browsing window, switch to a different Safari window that isn’t using Private Browsing, or choose File > New Window to open a window that doesn’t use Private Browsing. To further enhance privacy:
    Delete any items you downloaded while using Private Browsing windows.
    Close any other Private Browsing windows that are still open, to prevent others from using the Back and Forward buttons to see pages you visited in them.
    Besides using Private Browsing windows, you can manage cookies and data stored by all websites and have Safari ask all websites not to track you.
    If you forget to use a Private Browsing window, you can clear your browsing history.

  • Safari loads and the crashes after using Private Browsing

    I am finding that Safari won't load after using private browsing. After switching off private browsing, I load Safari but as soon as it appears on the screen, it crashes. No matter how many times I start it up, it will always disappera.
    The only way to fix it is to shut down and then start up the iPad again.
    Anyone know why this is happening?

    If you search the discussion site, you will find a number of threads regarding crashing issues with Safari since the iOS 5 update. It seems to be more prevalent in the iPad 1 - which I have and I experience crashes as well - but I have seen no definitive solution.
    I have read that from some users that you should turn off bookmark syncing with iCloud, turn off private browsing, restart the iPad .... but nothing I have tried has eliminated the problem.
    For now, it seems to be - whatever works for you is the "fix" until it really gets fixed.

  • Why is data being retained in the Firefox Internet cache when I always use Private Browsing ?

    OS Windows 7, using Firefox 33.1.1. I have set "Never remember history" so always use Private Browsing mode. I use CCleaner to delete unwanted files from my PC on each reboot, and notice that despite using private browsing mode CCleaner is deleting files every reboot from Firefox's Internet Cache. This morning, for example, there were 203 files with 2805 KB of data deleted by CC Cleaner from the Firefox Internet cache. What data is Firefox storing there from private browsing sessions?

    If you are in private browsing mode then the location for disk cache should be empty and show the same as the memory cache.
    Are you sure that this is the disk cache as there is more stored at the location where the disk cache is located?
    *C:\Users\<user>\AppData\Local\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\<profile>\
    Note that plugins may always store data on disk in their own cache.

  • Why is it when I choose "block cookies always"  I still get lots of cookies showing in my preferences even though I clear them after every use

    Why is it when I choose "block cookies always"  I still get lots of cookies showing up when I look at my preferences.  I always clear my cookies after each use but I don't understand how I can get any at all if they are supposed to block cookies always?  I have a desk top Mac and am using safari. 

    Safari caches cookies in memory and will sometimes write them back to disk after they've been deleted, for reasons known only to the developers. After deleting cookies, quit Safari immediately, then relaunch it. The cookies should now be gone for good, or until you visit the same sites again.

  • When using private browsing to view image results in Safari 5.1.3, only the first two rows of results are visible, the following four or so rows display greyed out place holders, and the safe search button is inoperable. Suggestions?

    When using private browsing to view image results in Safari 5.1.3, only the first two rows of results are visible, the following four or so rows display greyed out place holders, the remainder of the results page is blank, and the safe search button is inoperable. When I turn off private browsing and refresh the page, everything works again.
    Anyone else having this problem?

    I have got the same behaviour after the last Safari Update to 5.1.3. It seems that Safari now handles some scripts in a new way. If you debug the Google Website, you will see, that there is some Javascript Error, that seems to prevent to write into local cache. After some searching I wasn't able to finde a solution for this problem, other then disabling Javascript while private browsing to prevent the script loading. You then are able to use Google with the old layout. The option to disable JavaScript can be found in the Menu "Developer", wich has to be enabled in Safari in the options first.
    In my opinion this is a bug that is now occuring, because Apple changed something in private browsing and that has to be fixed by Google now, to run again. Or we will have to wait for 5.1.4, as you can read online Apple will change and bugfix the javascript engine in that version, perhaps this fixes the problem as well. I hope so!
    If anyone is in the developer program perhaps you could test this with the beta of 5.1.4 and tell us if it works.

    How to install Snow Leopard on Macbook Pro? keep getting msg- cannot install Internal HD is used for Time Machine- this was reset to external HD and still get msg?

    At some point, your internal HD was selected for use as Time Machine backups, and a Backups.backupdb folder was created at the top level.   So OSX thinks you're trying to install it on the same drive as your backups.
    Open your internal HD with the Finder (you won't find it via a Spotlight or Finder search) and delete that folder.

  • HT1645 whether i use a DL DVD or just a DVD R, it tells me there was an error during multiplexing.  I have tried changing every setting, best performance, professional quality, etc. and still get the same error message every time i try to burn to dvd.

    whether i use a DL DVD or just a DVD R, it tells me there was an error during multiplexing.  I have tried changing every setting, best performance, professional quality, etc. and still get the same error message every time i try to burn to dvd.

    Welcome to the forums.
    Looks like that error message does refer to encoding (see http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1645) but a problem could be that your video has to be reloaded into iDVD if you started the encoding process and then switched settings.  You could start a new iDVD project, or try deleting encoded assets.
    Let's start from the beginning -- what length of video are you trying to fit on the DVD? (this will indicate what encoding options you have).  Double layer DVDs can be finicky and are used for video more than 2 hrs long.
    Use good quality media -- Verbatim is often recommended around here, and I've used Sony DVD-R with good results.

  • When I use private browsing I am taken to the Mystart page in Incredimail which I don't want as I would prefer to use Bing and I wondered how I could change from Mystart to Bing

    Whenever I use private browsing I have to use mystart from Incredimail and I prefer to use Bing.I cannot find anywhere in Incredimail or Firefox where I can alter this.
    == Every time I use private browsing

    Hello.
    I can't be sure about this, but I'm guessing you have some kind of extension or plugin changing the behavior of Firefox. Try running Firefox in safe mode (to disable extensions and plugins) to see if this fixes the issue. If it does, you'll need to track down which extension or plugin is causing the problem (simply disable them one at a time). If this running in safe mode doesn't fix the issue, it's possible that some kind of about:config entry is causing the issue. Do this:
    - type about:config in your address bar and press enter
    - say "yes I'll be careful" if the browser asks you something
    - now, search for "incredimail" (without the commas) to find any and all strings with it. Simply rightclick ALL of them and select Reset.
    That should fix the issue.

  • Can I use private browsing to play FaceBook games?

    Let's see if I can explain it right. I was using private browsing and then BANG I do not know what happened. I was asked if I knew anyone from Scurrry Texas because they were trying to log into my Facebook page. After that I know longer have private browsing for games??? I took the steps to secure myself but still have the name Scurry, Texas as my secured location. Please help me get to the bottom of this. Getting a whole of Facebook is like pulling a tooth.

    Private browsing doesn't store anything on your computer, so it makes difficult to log in a website like Facebook. In other words, you shouldn't be able to play Facebook games while you are on private browsing
