This is what pops up a lot, slows up my computer, and it is annoying!

Script Error Message: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://browser/content/sanitize.js:133

This can be caused by clearing the cookies via Delete browsing, search and download history on Firefox.

  • Tools > Options > Privacy > Firefox will: "Use custom settings for history" > [X] Clear history when Firefox closes > Settings

Try to exclude the cookies to see if that helps.

Let all cookies expire when you close Firefox to remove unwanted cookies and keep the ones with an allow exception.

  • Tools > Options > Privacy > Cookies: "Keep until": "I close Firefox"
