For no reason I will be working on maybe Backpage and right in the middle of what I am doing Mozilla Firefox stops working and says "not responding". I use Backpage, my E-mail and Word or works a lot with copy and paste. I have two e-mails, a personal at Verison and company at Yahoo which I use every day. I just quit and come back maybe the next day and it is working for a while then quits again. It is very frustrating. So far as I know I have all of my up dates. When it crashes I cannot get into the computer. HP said there is nothing wrong with the computer, it is the program.

Chosen solution

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).
