Are you serious? In the other thread you had the last posting, and in
it you finish off by saying that it was doing it on your install of FF
only so it must be your install. How can you expect others to
properly explain why it is happening on your FF install only without

This may not be the best group to ask. This is a Firefox support
group. mozilla.dev.apps.firefox might be a better place to ask that
question.

I am not seeing that problem with Windows 7 64 bit. FF runs great, TB3
is buggy, but doesn't crash.

I've experienced the problem too, with Firefox 3.5.6. I discovered that
disabling the Update Scanner add-on almost completely eliminates the
problem. Pity, because I find that add-on useful.
When Firefox is not responding the Windows task manager tells me that
CPU utilization is 100%. Eventually whatever is going on does finish,

Clearing cache and download history when you close Firefox would help.
Clearing your usage history is not likely to help and would impair your
use of the awesomebar (location bar autocomplete) for several weeks.
History and bookmarks are stored in places.sqlite and wouldn't expect
either to have problems which may have occurred in the past.

You have a broken set up in some way.
Likely culprits are Adobe Flash and Sun Java.
Make sure both are up to date, and that you only have the latest Java
runtime installed.

I've always gotten the "Not Responding" message occasionally from both
Mozilla apps, regardless of my OS or computer. But it usually only
lasts a few to several seconds, and I've rarely had to kill the process.
In the case of FF, it often seems to be caused by some Javascript
going on, including Greasemonkey, which I use a lot. That and trying to

I use the Exit Button extension, which is supposed to be the same as
using File > Exit, but I wouldn't think it should make a difference if
you operate in single window mode, as I do.

I find that the longer I use FF, the longer it takes to completely shut
down (and I use the Exit Button extension). That goes for every version
up to and including 3.5.6. though that version doesn't seem near as bad
as previous versions, which sometimes took literally minutes to
completely shut down.

similar to that. Here's what I do:
I completely clear my history, and cache. That includes the URL bar history,
etc. It's amazing the performance boost that gives! Hope that helps

You must have something else going on for it to stay in memory.
