I have just deleted my current Mozilla Firefox and reinstalled. I am getting a statement that say, "A script on this page has stopped working, continue or stop script". The only way I can get firefox to load is to hit stop script. How can I fix this, please?

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

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