here's another symptom which might be informative -- i browsed over
to theweathernetwork.com to check weather for my hometown and firefox
just totally seized up with "Waiting for maps.googleapis.com" at the
bottom. that's now been displaying for over a minute, during which
time i can't scroll, can't switch tabs, etc,. i have two other
browsers up, and they are similarly inoperative. i can't even close
the weather network tab.
does that description help at all in narrowing things down?
