I have run across some sites - well, pages on sites - which seem to stall and lockup my entire laptop requir8ng a restart and quick kill of the page when I then restart FF. I want to be able to simply block such pages or, the domain where such page resides. I can see things like blocking tracking but nothing on specific dom8ns or urls.

Not in Firefox, but the host file.

Thanks jonzn4SUSE - I went ahead and just fixed it in my router but thanks for the thought on the hosts file!
