Looking for some guidance.

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.


Perhaps a switch to Chrome? Chrome runs fine in XP.

Try disabling the plugins, they can be problematic in FF. Flash can be a
crasher and Chrome handles those crashes better. Memory leaks?, dunno
for sure.

I'm a web developer, so I have a wide variety of browsers, FireFox just
doesn't seem to be the animal it used to be.

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

Any ideas where to start to solve this problem?
