nonresponsive script
When I use Firefox browser, every time I clicked on a link to a new page, my computer freezes for a few seconds. A small window pops up with the message saying “a script not stopped or not responsive”.

A script on this page may be busy, or it may have stopped responding. You can stop the script now, or you can continue to see if the script will complete.

Hello,
The Reset Firefox feature can fix many issues by restoring Firefox to its factory default state while saving your essential information.
Note: This will cause you to lose any Extensions and some Preferences.
- Open websites will not be saved in Firefox versions lower than 25.
To Reset Firefox do the following:
- Click the menu button , click help and select Troubleshooting Information.
Now, a new tab containing your troubleshooting information should open.
- At the top right corner of the page, you should see a button that says "Reset Firefox". Click on it.
- Firefox will close and reset. After Firefox is done, it will show a window with the information that is imported. Click Finish.
- Firefox will open with all factory defaults applied.
Further information can be found in the Refresh Firefox - reset add-ons and settings article.
Did this fix your problems? Please report back to us!
Thank you.

I reset the Firefox browser. However, it did not help.

A couple of other users posted about that adobe_analytics script stalling out:
- Adobe script crash and lock-up (unsolved)
- I continue to get an unresponsive script message on att.yahoo.com finance page as follows:https://s.yimg.com/qg/att/3party/adobe_analytics/1.0.5/s_code_yahoo.js (unsolved)
One reason scripts can stall out due to Flash is the Flash plugin's protected mode feature. You can disable that by creating or editing a settings file. The following pages/posts provide different ways to do that:
- Adobe support article under the heading "Last Resort": Adobe Forums: How do I troubleshoot Flash Player's protected mode for Firefox?
- Batch file to automate the manual steps: https://support.mozilla.org/questions/982093#answer-518078
Flash needs to completely unload from memory (restarting Firefox might help) before this would take effect.
I added the following in mms.cfg file:
ProtectedMode=0
Restarted the Firefox. However, the problem is still there.
