Firefox freezes/script errors with every page load

Have had this issue for about a week now where every single page I load freezes for 20-30 seconds and comes back with a script error of some kind asking me to either stop it or continue on. Appears to be Java related but have tried everything to clear the errors (cleared Java cache, Reset Firefox, ran TFC) and they are still coming up.

Both Chrome and IE work fine loading the same pages.

Troubleshooting info from FF below if it helps

Thanks, Application Basics

Hi, I am sorry to hear about Firefox not responding on many websites. Please try to change the max time a script can load with these noted config preferences: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/warning-unresponsive-script The default preference may be hitting the limit?

If it is java related, have you reinstalled Java or checked if it was up to date? https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/plugincheck/
