"I believe we all have the Voice of Reason inside us...to gently lead us out of our own self-created hells..." "Today a young man on acid realized that all matter is merely energy condensed to a slow vibration, that we are all one consciousness experiencing itself subjectively, there is no such thing as death, life is only a dream, and we are the imagination of ourselves. Here's Tom with the Weather." ~Bill Hicks |

I thought I was going bananas as every time I refresh or try to open a new window (Firefox), I get the "Firefox Not Responding" dropdown for 2 or three seconds and THEN the page reloads or opens up. I have 8 gigs of ram and thought that may have been the cause, but at any given time I'm at 10-12%. So Win 10s the culprit eh? Any advice outside of a fresh install or new OS? |

I was "tech support" so I unloaded everything I had on it. It was a bitch to get rid of because at first as I was deleting them individually but they were multiplying exponentially in a hidden temp folder. Thanks, but I think I'd rather try something else. |
