Firefox on Sandisk U3 Cruzer freezes

Submitted by dosvader on January 13, 2009 - 4:00pm

I run Firefox 2.0.0.17 on a Sandisk U3 cruzer. The temp files are located on the hard drive. About every 3 seconds it freezes typing and mouse movements and clicks. For example: here is (freeze) some sample (freeze) text. I have the following extensions: Better Gmail2; Google toolbar for Firefox; imacros for Firefox; Permatabs; Plain old favorites; Speed dail; and Stumbleupon.

Any ideas on how to cure this?

"Better Youtube" worked in FFP 2 but not 3.0.5

Hi there, I had FFP 2 on my desktop and had removed regular FF. Everything was working well. To backup and upgrade to FFP 3.0.5 I copied to my usb thumbdrive then successfully followed instructions here:

Better Youtube greasemonkey thingie [stops automatic play when opening video] works fine on both my old desktop FFP 2 and the copy I made to the thumb drive. It is not working in the new FFP 3 either from the thumb or I repeated the whole update process above to my desktop copy.

Windows 7 problem

There is a little problem with Windows 7.
The quick launch has been merged with the task bar. Or the task bar has been merged with the quick launch. Who knows?

Anyway, the task bar now looks and works like the quick launch. But with the difference that the shortcut button, after the program launched, now acts like the task bar. Maybe I better use some pictures...

You can "pin" applications to the taskbar. Basically what the quick launch did. (No application is running at this point)
