so after loving Firefox, I am going to have to quit. This only happens in Firefox. I get a banner across the top in yellow that says "A web page is slowing down the browser". It not only slows it down, it basically stops it. Can't open or close anything on the page. I am also unable to find out what web page they are talking about since I only have MSN.com open. Such a shame. I love the interface of Firefox, but I simply cannot put up with the constant and annoying issues like this one.

”Webpage is slowing down your browser” This is the new way the browser tells you there is a problem with the script program(s). https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/warning-unresponsive-script?cache=no
