Since the last update firefox hangs whenever I watch videos. Sometimes I can watch for a while, sometimes if freezes and the whole firefox comes to a grinding halt. Sometimes closing the video window makes the problem go away, as in the screenshot, sometimes I have to Force Quit firefox and restart. I have tried disabling the acceleration thing, set the rgbl thing to off, everything recommended, but nothing works,. The program has troo many tricks added, let me have the old, simple firefox back please.

Start Firefox in Safe Mode {web link} by holding down the <Shift> (Mac=Options) key, and then starting Firefox.

A small dialog should appear. Click Start In Safe Mode (not Refresh). Is the problem still there?

It seems to solve the immediate problem. Firefox does/did not hang. Now, with ant downloader disactivated, how do I download something?

Hello coen,

Maybe you'd like to try an alternative :
