chrome://browser/content/tabbrowser xml:1608 this script or another with the same beginning terms, has been stopping or freezing for a couple of months. It was doing this in both versions of firefox, I thought it was just facebook related but it is not. Why is chrome coming up in firefox?

I will say this once please here it as far as I know and as far as it is my ability to keep chrome off my computer I have.

sorry forgot, it also opens an new tab that cannot be closed, now it will not let any tab close. Have to shut down firefox and reopen.

I have cleaned and scan and cannot find any thing in my computer which is this reference.

Do you have that problem when running in the Firefox SafeMode?
A troubleshooting mode.
1.You can open the Firefox 4.0 SafeMode by holidng the Shft key when you use the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
2. Or use the Help menu item, click on Restart with Add-ons Disabled... while Firefox is running.
To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before using the Firefox shortcut to open it again.

If not, see this:

unless the script is hidden in the windows normal addons then chrome is not one of mine, so this is useless. Sorry
