Windoe 7 Everytime when I close the brouwser by clicking on the x I get a message that a script on the page may be busy, or it maybe stopped responding. Continue or stop script. I never had this problem with XP Sincerely Wiliam <email removed>

When I am done browsing I close the browser by clicking on the X. Since I use Window 7 I always get the message "A script on this page may be busy or it may have stopped responding. You can stop the script now, or you can continue to see if the script will complete" Script: chrome://bp/content/bp.js:857.

If I continue it takes anywhere from 5 to 15 minutes to complete

That will be due to an extension that is not working properly, possibly the Better Privacy extension. To test this, if you have Better Privacy installed try disabling it to see if the error stops appearing. To do that, in the Tools menu select Add-ons, then go to the Extensions panel, select Better Privacy in the list, then click on Disable. re-start Firefox to complete the process, then see if the error message appears.

If you do not have Better Privacy installed, repeat this process with the other extensions until you find the culprit. First check any extensions with the initials bp.

If it is Better Privacy, it should work with Firefox 3.6.13 on Windows 7. Make sure you have the latest version, also try uninstalling it and re-installing it, this may help if your version has become corrupted.
