on approx.dec.10,the ed_meister emailed me answer 122359 and i took his advice and registered at informaction(noscript)forum.they were supposed ti email me a key to complete the registration but they never did so i subsequently uninstalled noscript.however,i continue to get error messages re unresponsive scripts that seem to be a payback,e.g., a.chrome://noscript/control/main.js.3722 b.file:///C:program%20files/mozilla%20/firefox/modules XPCOMutils.jsm:165 c.chrome://noscript/content/ABE.js:1216 d.file:///C:program%20files/mozilla%20firefox/components/NS LOGIN MANAGER.j.s.:302 e.file:///C:program%20files/mozilla%20firefox/components/NS BLOCKLIST SERVICES.js:648 f."script"chrome://saff/content/safplg.js.2864' There are more but i'm just too tired. on noscript's FAQ re whitelist,i was amazed to see that one can disable any item except chrome from whitelist because "firefox would not work without it because it is a priviliged pseudo-protocol used by firefox". I thought chrome was a rival browser to firefox! but since chrome's daddy is google and they are the new microsoft (the 800 lb.web gorilla),i get it that its best to play nice with them. Look, i really don't care.i'm just an old dude who doesn't know crap about tech and just don't want these damn scripts to slow up my old pc any more than it is. i can't recall these problems before installing Noscript and can't get why i keep getting them even after uninstalling Noscript.Have they taken Firefox over?i have refused many requests to make chrome by default browser because i'm old school and loyal but this really has me wondering.Can you resolve these problems for me or not?Ed-meister,if you read this,i'm not mad at you,pal.You are a gent and you did try to help.i'm grateful to you.

I also have this problem and never had it before. This scripts that become non responsive and there are more than just this one, really really cripples my system to the point where I have to wait 5 minutes between clicks in the web browser... When is FireFox going to address this issue?

This is the error message I get: Script: file:///G:/Program%20Files/Mozilla%20Firefox/components/nsLoginManager.js:302

I have this problem, and I'm a Mac user. It occurs whenever I try to load a blog on Blogger.com (a Google site). It started after I upgraded to Firefox 3.6.23 for Mac OS X. Could it be that the new version of Firefox and Chrome are not getting along?

The message I get is: "Warning: Unresolved Script... A script on this page may be busy, or it may have stopped responding. You can stop the script now, or you can continue to see if the script will complete.

Script: chrome://fctoolbar943e7757074446a6ad981ece31034d91/content/fctoolbar.js:1 "

I have to click the "Stop Script" button twice before the error message goes away.

What can I do to stop getting this warning?

This issue can be caused by an extension (fctoolbar) that isn't working properly.

Start Firefox in Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot Mode to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
