I accepted the 3.6.10 update this afternoon.

Since then, FF keeps hanging.

During active use, it hangs every 2-3 minutes.

Takes 10-15 seconds before it continues.

XP Pro sp3, Celeron 3.6Ghz, 2MB ram

Same here. Had no problems with 3.6.9. In fact I've never seen Firefox crash this often.

Windows 7 32bit.

See:

Start Firefox in Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot Mode to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
