Firefox continually hangs when scripts stop and the stop script or Cancel ( I think) option comes up. Is there any way to automagically cancel the script so Firefox can continue. This junk is usually ads or some long wait to report to some snooper.

You shouldn't have that problem with scripts that take too long to finish.

Start Firefox in Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot Mode to check if one of the add-ons is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).

  • Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

See:

If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.

  • Use "Disable all add-ons" on the Safe mode start window to disable all extensions.
  • Close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")
