I don't know what's been happening but starting last week, Firefox would just freeze for no reason maybe like 1/3 times I'm on here...I've cleared all my cache as well.

Also I opened task manager and to my surprise I saw that Firefox was using 1.3million K in the Memory Usage tab. I've never seen anything like it before, after that it's been around 600-800 thousand...

It's a Gateway T-1628. I'm using Windows XP after I downgraded from Vista, upgraded to 4 gigs, and it just happened 5 mins ago, all I was running was Itunes, MSN, AVG, and Internet Download Manager(nothing was downloading). No new programs have been installed near the time it started.

Thanks for helping...

Having the same thing on XP only recently. When the Lexus ads were going, I didn't even notice a problem but now it's bizarre. Seemed to really seal the deal when I had multiple beyond windows open (when I was doing that automaxx quoting for example).

holy crap I thought my computer was crapping out on me. I didn't expect it to be the ads at all. Thanks for giving it attention right away.
