I cannot determine for sure what is making the browser hang, but Firefox hangs regularly with firefox-bin becoming non=responsive. THe message is Firefox is a;ready running. At this point you have to kill the pprocess and restart. Any help here appreciated. As well as any directions for upgrading Firefox to the latest version past 3.6
