Firefox Bug -- Windows Freezing
Recently, within the past several weeks, something strange has been happening with Firefox. Windows are freezing, and I have to open up a new window ..... Here is what happens. I'll have a window open, and be reading something online. Then when I need to type in something, like a response to a forum, that window is frozen, and I can't type anything at all. I have to close that frozen window, and open up a new window, then I can pick up where I left off.

This happens everyday, and appears to only be a problem with Firefox. I have the newest version of Firefox, 1.5.0.2, which just updated automatically several days ago. Has anyone else noticed this same problem? Is there a fix?

I'm running Tiger 10.4.6 on my iBook G4. Any ideas? Thanks.

you can try to erase the file named "org.mozilla.firefox.plist" in you Preferences. You'll loose your preferences, but this can solve settings issues.
