Hi, for quite some time now facebook becomes slow after a couple of minutes, photos dont show up, posts dont load etc. I have to shut down firefox, open it and go onto facebook again. Its only when using firefox i have this issue, if i use other browsers its perfect so clearly a firefox issue. I have noticed others complain of this also so when can we expect a fix for this?

We're sorry to hear that Firefox is crashing. In order to assist you better, please follow the steps below to provide us crash IDs to help us learn more about your crash.

The crash report is several pages of data. We need the report numbers to see the whole report.

  1. Enter about:crashes in the Firefox address bar and press Enter. A list of Submitted/Unsubmitted Crash Reports will appear, similar to the one shown below.
  2. Copy the 5 most recent Submitted Report IDs that start with bp- and then go back to your forum question and paste those IDs into the "Post a Reply" box.

Note: If a recent Report ID does not start with bp- click on it to submit the report.

(Please don't take a screenshot of your crashes, just copy and paste the IDs. The below image is just an example of what your Firefox screen should look like.)
