Every Tab shows a title "Connecting ..." all the time even a web page is fully opened. Reinstall Firefox 4.0 temporally fixed this problem, but it reverts to "connecting ..." again after restart the PC. What went wrong?

I too have this problem and I guess its the tabrenamizer add-on. The only fix that I have seen is to disable this add-on, but I rely on this add-on. Has anyone found any other fix to this?

Thank you, rocket1970.

Indeed, it is a "tabrenamizer" problem. I disabled this add-on. All tabs are showing their correct titles.

We might have to wait for the next tabrenamizer or firefox update to regain the tab-renaming feature.

Yeah! After disabling "Tabrenamizer" eveything works fine.

I don't have Tabrenamizer but still have this annoying problem. Often happens when firefox has to be shut down and tabs are restored.
