When I open the links in the new tab, Firefox hangs.

It shows an JavaScript busy message box after several minutes but unable to click on the messagebox even.

Steps.

1. Open a website 2. Keep on opening new tabs with 4-5 tabs, Firefox will hang


I could not take take the troubleshoot information because the UI is unresponsive.

The bug and dump has been filed in Bugzilla, have a look here - https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=764715

I tried deleting the default profile and created a new one. Also tried resetting Firefox and safemode option as well but the problem persists.

For me, this problem appeared immediately after I updated Java, and I failed to uncheck the "Install ask.com toolbar" option. I immediately uninstalled it, but I wonder if anyone else having the problem did the same thing.
