Clicking on "Tools/Gears settings" brings up the Gears dialog
box with a list of my Gears enabled WordPress powered sites. I
don't run "Foxmarks" though. Had you already added Foxmarks
when it locked up?

Doh! Now it's frozen again!
I went into gears settings in firefox and it froze again. I
shut it down and rebooted and now I'm back to where I started
again. :(
Kirk can you try click on Tools/Gears Settings and tell me
what happens?

Kirk you genius, creating a fresh new profile did the trick!
I'll try enabling all my add-ons and see if it still works...
Yep all good. Thanks so much. I hope everyone else is reading
this.

Did you try Firefox on a new profile? Also, have you cleared
Firefox's cache? If not, try clearing all of your private data
and trying Gears again. If that doesn't work, try running
Firefox with a fresh profile and see if that works.
Just thinking out loud here.

Ok I just disabled all other add-ons except Google Gears and
it still locks up (freezes).
So it's got me beat. I have absolutely no idea what is going
on.

Wow ok thanks for that. I don't understand it then. I've never
got this to work for a long as I can remember. Even last week
I got a brand new notebook. I installed the latest Firefox,
Gears and some other addons and again it does exactly the same
thing.
The other addons I am running are AdBlockPlus,
DowndloadHelper, DownloadThemAll, Firefox Bookmarks
Syncronizer and Tabmix Plus. is there anyone else here running
some if not all of these add-ons I have running here?

Thanks Kirk. So are you Firefox 3.0.5 at the moment?
Perhaps it's clashing with another addon for us here, an
addon that you
don't have kirk?
