edited April 2006 in Science & Tech
I have Mozilla 1.73 & Bon Echo. Sometimes when I'm finished with the internet & closed the apps, my mouse will get all slow and then nothing will work, evertthing freezes. This don't happen all the time but I realized that it mostly happens when I'm online for a long while.

What causes this? & how to stop it from happening!!

M7VIZ 8.0
XP PRO SP2
256MB PC2700RAM
Sempron 2400+
Geforce FX5200 AGP 8X
Cmedia 6ch pci sound
CNR modem

Mozilla 1.73, Bon Echo, IE6 SP2.

    Try temorarily disabling all your Firefox extensions and see if that changes anything. Posting a HijackThis log would be a good idea, too. :)

    Try killing these (make sure you do a backup in HijackThis), then try again.

    What happens if you run Firefox in its (not Windows) Safe Mode?
