when I go into my emails a box opens which freezes my screen with the following message

a script is trying to run

"https://s.yimg.com/rq/darla/2-8-1/js/sfext.js:1"

I then have a choice to either "stop script" or "continue script" if I continue nothing happens it just stays frozen and f I stop script its ok for 10 to 15 seconds then freezes again and this message comes back, after 5 or 6 times it just freezes and I have to restart the computer completely.

Please help it is so frustrating.

Please update to Firefox 32, Firefox 4 was released several years ago, and websites will probably not run properly in it.
