Unresponsive Script - A script on this page may be busy, or it may have stopped responding. You can stop the script now, or you can continue to see if the script will complete. Script: chrome://tavgp/content/libs/include.js:595

When I open Firefox after about 1 minute I get a small screen that says "Unresponsive Script" Inside the the box is the message "A script on this page may be busy, or it may have stopped responding. You can stop the script now, or you can continue to see if the script will complete."

Script: chrome://tavgp/content/libs/include.js:595

It then offers me the opportunity to Continue or to Stop Script Loading.

The only way I can get Firefox to load is to click the box to Stop Script Loading.

Caused by a faulty add-on. You need to figure out which add-on is causing that and disable that add-on.

Try the Firefox SafeMode.
A troubleshooting mode, which disables most Add-ons.
(If you're not using it, switch to the Default Theme.)

  1. You can open the Firefox 4/5/6/7 SafeMode by holding the Shft key when you use the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
  2. Or use the Help menu item, click on Restart with Add-ons Disabled... while Firefox is running.

To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before using the Firefox shortcut (without the Shft key) to open it again.

If it is good in the Firefox SafeMode, your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one.
