Help!!! Firefox not responding!!

debkwik · 06-16-2009, 09:50 PM

Even since last night my firefox is not responding when i have one or more windows opened.
Either one of them will stop moving and freezed.
I had to force and shut it down and restart it again.
I was wondering if there's anything to do with watching those movies online.
Or anything to do with the version 3.0.6 i have installed.
I am having Vista 32-bit I think not too sure since i know nothing about computer.
I have read a few posts in here and start my f-secure online scan and found 4 infected files but they are cleaned now.
I also tried the "del cookie" way provided by mozilla but firefox still freezes...

Can anyone please help....

it could be the movies, if Adobe Flash crashes, the whole browser goes too...

What is the filetype of the movies you are trying to watch? Which player is being used to view these movies? You may need to update your media player.

You should also install the latest version of Firefox, which is currently 3.5.

Does this problem occur at a specific website, or any type of website that plays movies?
