    I have been getting a ton of these Unresponsive Script Popups lately, and also a lot of freezing! even on familiar sites! ..I ran malware scans to check for any possible culprits! but so far nothing! I am wondering if my FOXFIRE browser may need resetting, because it also has been experiencing a lot of crash's lately. Any opinions on this problem? Thanks John

    What malware program did you use? And what version of FireFox?

    If super anti spyware didn't get I'm going to suggest we move this thread to our malware removal section so that one of our malware experts can have a look.

    As Dougie said, A reset is a good place to start.
    You could also try running Firefox without addons... as it may be an addon causing the issue.

    Firefox:
    Open Firefox, then click on the Help tab and select: Restart with Addons disabled

    I reset Firefox last night, and all of the trouble disappeared, so I believe it's fixed! Firefox is a pretty good browser when it's working correctly, but it seems to have a lot of day to day issues that you may confuse for something else! Thanks again to everyone for their Help!
