I have not had any problems with 24.0. I've been using Mozilla browsers since Mozilla 1.0 for Unix.

Try running Spybot Search & Destroy and then add Ghostery as an extension. Ghostery will block all sorts of internal ads and tracking bots in web pages. Turn everything on and then turn off the things you want to get through. Very clean. You might also check out FasterFox.

I had that problem and solved it by disabling all the addons. I re-enabled them one at a time until the lockup occurred. I uninstalled the two causing the problem and now FF is again flying. The addons are the reason I like FF so much.

I got rid of it when it conflicted with my Dell Touchpad. No judgments. Just practicality. As a positive byproduct, Chrome syncs across all of my devices.

SeaMonkey! Works great for me, and, I can run it off of my flash drive. Thus I have my favorites with me everywhere I go. (FF derivative)

You may also want to try ‘Iron’ Open source version of Chrome. A little less “Google”y. Works off of Thumbdrive.

Opera..quite like it. Use it mostly on my android. Works off of Thumbdrive.

IE 10 is swift and works very well on my Win 7 systems.
No Thumbdrive at this time.

Firefox, only for things that won’t work on anything else. Works off of Thumbdrive. See SeaMonkey.

Lynx Text based browser! If you have problems running this baby, then you have problems! Use to be the only way to cruise the interweb. Works off of Thumbdrive.

I like browsers that work off of Thumbdrives.

You need to replace it with an older version it sounds like.

I am sure someone knows where those can be downloaded.
