Recently Firefox (v3.6.13 on OS X Tiger 10. 4.11) is lagging when I'm typing an email in Hotmail, using the scroll bar and generally when using Firefox. The coloured spinning wheel also shows briefly at the same time as the lag occurs, which lasts for around a second each time.
The issue seems to get worse the longer Firefox is open (this might be my imagination). The lag happens no matter how many tabs I have open.
When quitting Firefox, I am also sometimes getting the spinning wheel, before the application freezes rather than quits and I see the message 'application not responding'... a force quit is required.
I have AdBlockPlus, Keeptube's video downloader and the Firefox PDF viewer add-ons installed.
Is this lagging a known issue? Is there something I can do to remedy the problem?
I thought it might be my mouse, or the surface the mouse is moving on but Safari works without any of the above mentioned problems.
Thanks.
