Dear Gentlemen:

 I am using Firefox, version #43.0.4. I am having, an immense problem. I don't know, how many times exactly. Firefox will just freeze up, many times. Without, any warning. After a while, it may start working again. Then it can, do it again. It is nothing for it to freeze, maybe 4 or 6 times. When I am using Firefox. I have clicked the reset button, a couple of times. I have even entered the command, netsh reset resetlog command. Or something like that, in the CMD. Firefox started working great, then it started freezing on me again. I don't know if it is my computer, that is dong this. I am immensely annoyed, with Firefox. The thing is, Internet Explorer can connect. I am seriously thinking of, using the Maxthon browser. It is a Internet Explorer, derived browser. At least it can work, without freezing up.

Sincerely,

Lowell Prater

Start Firefox in Safe Mode {web Link} by holding down the <Shift>
(Mac=Options)
key, and then starting Firefox. Is the problem still there?

While still in Safe Mode,
