Anybody else having trouble with Firefox 4 hanging? It's happening to me about once a day even with running 4.01. I've got about a dozen extensions loaded, all of which are supposedly up to date with 4.01.

I've tried disabling all extensions . . .no help.

The symptom is that the window just becomes unresponsive. I have a couple of sets of bookmarked tabs that I load one at a time . . .with maybe 20 tabs in each group. Force quitting Firefox and relaunching helps for awhile . . .but the problem eventually recurs.

I've tried trashing the original app and downloading a fresh copy of 4.01 . . .no help there either.

Any ideas or suggestions?

Just catching up on list reading and curious about this thread. Did any updates after Firefox 4.01 help resolve any of these issues? Does starting the browser in 32-bit instead of 64-bit help?

I have a couple of schools that use a lot of Firefox and Safari plugins that only run in 32-bit mode. So I instruct the users to restart their browser in 32-bit if they start to see problems web page loading etc.
