LT one is a 8.1 LT two is a 7

8 out of 10 times this problem happens it is on Facebook and the rest is elsewhere on the internet and it happens upwards of 45 - 50 times an hour. While that sounds like an astoundingly large amount of times we have become so used to it that it has only become a minor irritation as we love FF so much. The "Not responding" length of time is between 3 seconds to 15 - 20 seconds and then it starts responding again. I have disabled all extensions and it still does it. It started update before last.

Some added toolbar and anti-virus add-ons are known to cause Firefox issues. Disable All of them.

Start Firefox in Safe Mode {web link} While you are in safe mode;

Type about:preferences#advanced<Enter> in the address bar.

Under Advanced, Select General. Look for and turn off Use Hardware Acceleration.

Poke around safe web sites. Are there any problems?
