How often does this happen? Have you seen any pattern?
What were you doing at the time? Just surfing? Watching a clip? Reading an article? . . . . . .
Thank you for your reply, it looks like it appears randomly about every 20 min or so. I am usually looking for information, ordering stuff, reading email. so basically surfing. Also this probably started about 6 moths ago, not sure could be longer. I do update firefox often and have the latest version installed.
It actually just did it when I pressed the post reply button, nothing happened and the was a spinning wheel for about 30 secs and then it posted the reply.
