Bow down before the mighty scripts.

Promise to never ever again go to bigtittedcougars.com

Then all is forgiven.

And my Lord, the system software has really slowed down in the last 20 minutes. Either they are tinkering under the hood or someone is sending my on the slow train to cyberia...brrrr..... brrrrr..... brrrrr.....

Now it's fast again. I think someone is jerking my.... isp.

the video ads...
others sites especially news sites have lots of it

I have been tempted to write an app that would deal with them and the browser, but I know it would then become a lifelong obsession keeping it working. too many bad guys (programmers) out there. welcome to equality

On your no script button forbid USMB. It makes this place much more pleasant.

Video ads play even after browser is closed.

I really do think most programmers should be tried and executed

Warning Unresponsive script - What it means and how to fix it Firefox Help

Letting the script run longer
If you find that pressing the Continue button brings up the same dialog again, letting the script run longer won't help you; it will just make Firefox hang for longer. However, if you can use Firefox normally after pressing Continue, then the script may just needs extra time to complete.

To tell Firefox to let the script run longer:

1. In the Location bar, type about:config and press Enter.
   
   • The about:config "This might void your warranty!" warning page may appear. Click I'll be careful, I promise! to continue to the about:config page.
2. In the about:config page, search for the preference dom.max_script_run_time, and double-click on it.
3. In the Enter integer value prompt, type 20.
4. Press OK.

With scripts now allowed to run for longer times, you may no longer receive the prompt.

If you still receive the prompt (or if you want to see it again), you should set that preference back to the default value.

1. In the Location bar, type about:config and press Enter.
   
   • The about:config "This might void your warranty!" warning page may appear. Click I'll be careful, I promise! to continue to the about:config page.
2. In the about:config page, search for the preference dom.max_script_run_time.
3. Right-click on it and choose Reset.

Error happens when accessing certain websites
If the error happens only on a specific website, you can block scripts from running on that website. Many sites still function even if scripting is disabled.

1. Install the YesScript extension and restart Firefox.
2. Open the Firefox window, click the Tools menu and select Add-ons.
3. In the dialog that comes up, click on the YesScript entry.
4. Click Options.
5. In the YesScript Blacklist dialog, type the URL of the site that's giving you problems in the text box.
6. Click Add. The domain name of the site will be added to the list.

Now that the problematic site has been blocked from running scripts, it will no longer cause unresponsive script warnings.

Disabled all scripts a long time ago. Don't need them to use the site except for Gallery and optional stuff like that.
