FF often shows "Unresponsive script" warning message - please help
Using Firefox 2.0.0.16, I keep getting the following warning message ...
"Warning: Unresponsive script A script on this page may be busy, or it may have stopped responding. You can stop the script now, or you can continue to see if the script will complete." for websites like www.rei.com and others. What can be done to work around this? |

I had the same with AVG 8 internet site protection. AVG installed an add-on without asking permission. I disabled the add-on and the problem went away. |

As far as anti-virus software goes, I have Norton AV (not AVG), which comes with Norton SystemWorks. If the problem is related to anti-virus software, I've had Norton AV for a long time. But, this warning message keeps popping up only within the last few days. It is making my system annoyingly sluggish. |

Extensions are great in theory but in practice the system is a little
unwieldy and out of control. Kind of reminds me of Microsoft and their eternal cross platform compatibility headaches that defy a solution until one OS is put out to pasture, although the folks at Mozilla would never admit that. If you are up to it, one thing you can do, which I find simpler than detective work, is to create a new profile and install your extensions from scratch one by one. There are certain files you can just copy in to regain the original GUI but that may be where the problem is so it's best to create it all anew, except for bookmarks. The problem is that before too long you are likely to experience the same problem you have now, or a parallel problem, often something javascript related. It's like cutting the grass.

I recently went through this process already.
I removed as many extensions as possible leaving just the bare necessities. I replaced the older version of Adblock with Adblock Plus. I'm wondering if the problem could be due to the system being low on resources. "Roger Fink" wrote in message ...

The FF has a built in check of unresponsive javascripts which can be caused by other applications that adds more scripts to the web page and sure a unresponsive environment which tries to run a bit heavy javascript could trigger the event. By the selection of newsgroups, I assume you are using microsoft 98 and it feels most likely that you do use a computer that ain't too new, could be good to remove parts of the dos extension to make it more responsive with 98lite. http://www.litepc.com/98lite.html PS. Please don't top post, it's rude and it's more difficult to know what you are replying to, cut out all the crap you don't reply to and write your reply under the section to which you reply. -- //Aho |

It's not really a question of removing the extensions. I use SeaMonkey
browser, so where I go in the program to customize it and select preferences is sometimes different than in FF. But with either you can create a new profile. When you do that you will be presented with the default set-up and no user-added enhancements. If you still have your current problem with that set-up, then the corruption is in the install directory and will be hard (and probably inadvisable) to fix. If there is no problem you can then install your extensions and themes one by one, and if want you can keep testing between extension installations to verify things are still copasetic. mozilla.support.firefox is the best place to post for FF problems. They know their stuff. Adam wrote: I recently went through this process already. I removed as many extensions as possible leaving just the bare necessities.
