Problems With Firefox????...............

Friday, February 1, 2008 by Leo the Lion | Discussion: Internet

I'm one of those people that ditched Firefox after suffering memory leaks - and there are quite a few people out there who don't even realise they have a problem - but I just came across this article which might help. Thought it worth sharing with you. The website, itself, is quite interesting too, for Vista users

I've never had any problems with Firefox, even with using 6 or seven ad ons. But I also don't open very many tabs/windows at a time. I've seen some people who complain about memory leakage whose problems didn't occur till they were opening 30 or 40 tabs at a time. (I don't know how they'd keep track of that much stuff at once or why.)

Nonetheless, it was an interesting article, well worth checking out.

Thanks Leo, this might be helpful.
I'm thankful that I have enough memory that I can run FF for a long while befor i gets ugly.

But good to learn, so thanks Leo

The only time I use Firefox is the Portable App on my JumpDrive. Seems to be ok, but I typically don't have it running for very long.

No worries, guys. Pic, I've seen that portable app used by several people and I might give it a try.
