User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/41.0.2272.101 Safari/537.36

Steps to reproduce:

I surf the web with Firefox.
I hibernate my computer.
I come back from hibernation.
I try to surf the web with Firefox.


Actual results:

- It's like there is no connexion (unable to reach any page, whereas other browser can).
- When I quit Firefox, it's still in the task manager.
- If I try to kill the "firefox.exe", nothing happens.

I can reproduce this bug on 37.0:

Name 	Firefox
Version 	37.0
User Agent 	Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:36.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/37.0

but I can not produce on Firefox 43.0.1:

Name 	Firefox
Version 	43.0.1
Build ID 	20151216175450
User Agent 	Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:43.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/43.0

Please upgrade your version of Firefox to Firefox 43.0.1 and let me know if this bug still persist.

Thank you,

Justin

Thank you for your answer, but I'm not using Firefox anymore.

With Firefox 43, I don't reproduce the problem, but:
- I've tested only once.
- I'm not using the same OS as when I submited the bug.


Video in full screen are still slow / jolting (Youtube, ...), so I'll continue to use another web browser.

The "- If I try to kill the "firefox.exe", nothing happens." sounds unusual.
