Hi

I'm on W7 and the latest firefox. I am now getting firefox freezing then crashing very regularly, but only, it seems, when I am on DIYNOT :confused:

Anyone else by any chance had these problems :?:

Dave,

I've got Win7 and latest Firefox but no problems.

Have you got Ccleaner installed, if so run the cleaner to clear out all your temp files. If not installed, it is worth getting.

If not, use Firefox to clear out the History.
Open Firefox -> Tools -> Clear Recent history -> Select Today -> Details (if list is not showing) and tick all Except Cookies and Active Login -> OK.

Then clear out IE even if you do not use it,
Open Internet Explorer -> Tools -> Delete Browsing History -> Tick all Except Cookies and Passwords -> click Delete.

Have you installed any Add-ons recently or have you checked them for updates? Tools -> Addons -> Extensions -> Updates.

Post back.

I've now found that it is not just this site :cry:

Can't think that I've installed any plug ins etc lately.

I'll try cleaning things out ;)

Since cleaning everything out with CC I've had no more similar freezes.

There have been a couple of crashes that Firefox has sent a crash report about.

Then 2 days ago there was an update installed. No probs to date ;)
 
Run the Cleaner in Ccleaner about once a week to get rid of all temp files.

But remember that if you have visited a new site and signed in there and you want to keep visiting it, in Ccleaner go to Options -> Cookies and move the cookies for that site across to the roght list to keep them before running the cleaner.
