14.04 after upgrade freezes with fire fox

[Phil G]

I have the same problem, also with Chrome.  I have not been able to find a
solution.  It appears to be any website that has a lot of connections, for
ads and other content that is dynamically loaded.  TV news sites are the
worst.

I frequently have to hard boot my laptop.  I regret upgrading from 12.04.

I have an older Lenovo T61 with 2gb of ram.
