Kris, I tried the font idea. It didn't help. I went to the Library/
Logs>HangReporter>Firefox and that was empty. But the CrashReporter
folder had the Hangs. I didn't get much out of reading it, since I
don't know what to look for. I did notice a lot of the word "Kernel"
and this:
Thread 7bb97a8
  Kernel stack:
    18 IOWorkLoop::threadMain() + 0 [0x54ba1c]

over and over again.
