Script errors in Firefox.

I don't know if it's just my desktop and Laptop or there are bugs using Firefox?
Desktop is currently windows 7( soon to be windows 10)
Laptop is windows 8

Both have at least a terabite of HD space and 4 GB of RAM.

This would normally happen due to a slow computer encountering something like a video ad (my ancient laptop does it all the time) but check yourself for viruses just in case they're malicious popups pretending to be system dialogs, we've had problems with those before.

Malwarebytes is probably the most comprehensive program I've ever used. If there are any viruses hiding on your machine, chances are this will find and clear them. The premium version is dirt cheap, to boot.

I've had the same problems recently (I'm an Opera user, not a Firefox user). I have cleaned up a lot of malware on my laptop, but I still get script errors.

I mostly browse IMFDB on my iPad these days, but the fact that it's so slow on my laptop is one of the reasons that I don't edit IMFDB much anymore.
