Facebook, big albums) where is the problems with this 2 items, and what can I do to optimaze this stuff

Done, I do: - disabled some old and unused Add-ons & Plugins and, install the needed KB package, also set my Kaspersky to low and Firefox now acts more stable, for about 3 hours now... I'm keep testing in, but no problems for now, THANK YOU VEEEERY MUCH, THAT WAS VERY USEFUL!!!!

You're very welcome. Thanks for posting back.

Not sure what you meant by "also set my Kaspersky to low " but you might want to try changing that back to the default setting, if it affects your security, and see if Firefox remains stable. The other changes you made may have been enough to fix the problem.

I'll mark my answer above as solving your problem.

Yep, it, is still working, only one case of "Not Responding" but, It was my fault, so it doesn't Count! :D - The Kaspersky - I mean - Web Online protection scanner - the stuff that checks traffic in real time... It is already slowing down the machine... so the LOW state is fine for me... thus - I rarely checks unknown sites - only familiar ones :P
