I thought MLS was hard-coded to only load in IE?

Yikes...I might be switching back to Chrome. FF4 is hanging on me a lot. Instead of an hour glass I get a cute swirly blue arrow, while firefox greys itself out. Then I just sit and wait until it decides to respond...usually after 2 or 3 minutes. It is happening at work and on the home laptop too. Work PC is 64bit Windows 7 and home laptop is 32bit Win 7. Reinstall did nothing. This is too bad because I found FF4 really fast at first.

Anyone else experiencing this?

I didn't do a fresh install and just upgraded, and so far everything is OK for me. I find it to be a little quicker, but other than that, nothing too crazy either way.

I have installed it on about 3 machines now, and each is working fine (1 XP and 2 Vistas). I only have Windows 7 on one of my computers at home, however, and that one hasn't been upgraded yet. I'll post on here when I get around to upgrading it and let you know if it might be a Win7 thing.

Edit: One thing that you may want to try (if you haven't already) is deleting your profile as well as doing a clean install. There might be something in there that is causing trouble and you're bringing it with you to the new install. Just remmeber to backup your bookmarks and anything else that you want to keep beforehand.

Fresh fresh fresh install on a Windows 7 32bit machine and having the same issues as before. It seems to hang when loading ads. Even the ads on this site. Very frustrating. And seeing how almost every site has ads these days this is happening a lot.

Me too. I believe Firebug is the culprit, though I can't be sure. It would crash every 5 minutes or so.

Weirdly enough this is new behaviour - I swear it didn't do this when I first installed.

Could be a plugin, I've never had it crash on OS X ever, I only have AdBlock Plus installed for plugins I think.

All I've got are Firebug & Xmarks.

I'm fairly sure it's Firebug. But firebug's absolutely essential for my work so that means I'm using 3.6 until Firebug gets their #### together.
