    Mozilla Firefox intermittent hangs


    Have Firefox 3.5.7 on Win 7 64 bit. Every now and then Firefox hangs in the background instead of closing and cant be reopened. This requires me to restart win 7 during which i have to do a forced close of Firefox.
    Anyone else had this problem ? or offer any advice.

    Firefox 3.5.7 has never given me any problems.:)

    Why not try the new 3.6 release. Here : Firefox Browser | Free ways to customize your Internet

    You don't need to uninstall your existing version and all your bookmarks etc will be saved automatically.


    Hope this helps.
