Running FireFox on XP.

Can minimize FireFox with no problem.

When I restore from the minimize position after some period of time,
usually an hour or so, get a complaint that FireFox is not responding.

This requires that I close out FireFox, then reload and things are
hunky-dory.

Any ideas where to start to solve this problem?

Disable ALL add-ons and see if the problem persists.

If it does, do a complete uninstall, hard reboot the computer and a
complete reinstall of the latest version.

See what happens and THEN begin adding your add-ons (if any) one by
one, holding your breath each time to see if the symptoms come back.



I think there's a reasonable chance the problem could be related to
power management settings (in Windows, or in the BIOS (hardware)).

I have encountered the problem. I got to task manager
(ctl+alt+del), and close the offending application. That takes
care of it without restarting the computer (not sure if you were going
that route).
