I have been using Firefox for years. I have a number of tabs open in it. I wanted to do a quick look at emails without loading all the windows. Opened Internet explorer 11. I left system on to do other work and system was powered down when I returned. Restated, brought up Internet explorer again and tried to restore my previous session.

It is running very slow, three hours now and I have recovered three of the tabs. The cursor is now blue circle. The screen resets every few seconds. Input line always indicates the following Google.com/#q=no+script+Firefox is not responding I have not added the No script. Addon to firefox. I do not have a clue why I.E. Is trying to use it. Why it is using Google to spend all the time looking for it. Evidently it is opening the tabs after very long searching Trying to recover the open tabs and the blue busy circle is not letting me do anything

I have restore previous session set in I.E. So when I close it with task mgr i will not lose my tabs. I closed it restarted it five times last night and every time it did the same thing. However this morning it had finished restoring all of the tabs, but the blue busy circle was still there. I restarted the system again and everything came up quickly with all tabs restored.

I do not understand what was going on but it seemed to just fix itself by being patient? Maybe whatever made it try use NoScript was deleted by webroot overnight.

Hello,

You can close Internet Explorer with Task Manager, but then you will loose all open tabs in Internet Explorer. However, if Internet Explorer keeps hanging, you may have little choice.

Here's how to close Internet Explorer through Task Manager:

  1. Right-click on the taskbar, and then clicking Start Task Manager.
  2. Click the Processes tab
  3. Click iexplore.exe
  4. Click End Process
