User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9.2.3) Gecko/20100401 Firefox/3.6.3 (.NET CLR 3.5.30729) Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9.2.3) Gecko/20100401 Firefox/3.6.3 (.NET CLR 3.5.30729) 3.6.3 is freezing up multiple times every time I am on-line. I have noticed that the newest version I upgraded to (3.6.3) is using 48-53% of the systems resources. Any drop down boxes such as "Bookmark this page", right click to save or copy an image..anything at all, are not visible. I have refreshed, increased capacity, updated speed with the same results. I got so frustrated I uninstalled Firefox and started using Internet Explorer again. Although I hate IE, I didn't have a single crash. I re-installed FF today and immediately started getting crashes. In fact, while typing this response I got a misspelled word so I right clicked to get suggestions and the outline of the drop down box appeared but no content. Reproducible: Always
