I continually have a yellow bar across the top of the page when I open Facebook on Firefox.

It says "A web page is slowing down your browser. What would you like to do?" then there are 2 buttons and a X next to that question.


My request is for Firefox to tell me it is Facebook causing the problem and how to get rid of it.

”Webpage is slowing down your browser” This is the new way the browser tells you there is a problem with the script program(s). https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/warning-unresponsive-script?cache=no

As it only happens when I use Facebook then I can presume that is the problem page. BUT what I want is to stop it from happening. I am not a Tech person so any assistance will have to be very simple

Yes I did and as I said I am not a Tech person so need very simple instructions to remove it.

If the problem is a script, there could be several reasons for the problem.

Open the History Manager <Control> (Mac=<Command>) <Shift> H. In the search bar, enter the name of the site. Right-click on one of the listings and select Forget About This Site. This should remove all information, including any site settings
