Denc nañu waxtaan wii. Yónneel yeneen laaj soo soxlaa ndimbal.

I pressed RESUME instead of NEW SESSION how do I get that option back to stop what seems to be my Firefox on a continuous loop and then slowing everything down. I have Mac OS X with Windows?

Firefox keeps opening a forum tab and lots of other tabs show up at the top of the screen and little curly things going round and round (sorry to sound so technical !)

It is possible that there is a problem with the files sessionstore.js and sessionstore.bak in the Firefox Profile Folder.

Delete the sessionstore.js [2] file and possible sessionstore-##.js [3] files with a number and sessionstore.bak in the Firefox Profile Folder.

Deleting sessionstore.js will cause App Tabs and Tab Groups and open and closed (undo) tabs to get lost, so you will have to create them again (make a note or bookmark them).
