when I look at the task manager firefox is running 5 programs at the same
time to the tune of 525k is this normal?

Most likely normal. I use Google Chrome and even though I have only 4 tabs open, Task Manager shows chrome running 12 programs.
I would guess the extra programs run the ads.
Have you installed an ad-blocker yet?
Malware can come through those unsolicited advertisements as well...
"That tyranny has all the vices both of democracy and oligarchy is evident. As of oligarchy so of tyranny, the end is wealth; (for by wealth only can the tyrant maintain either his guard or his luxury). Both mistrust the people, and therefore deprive them of their arms." -- Aristotle, Book V, 350 B.C.E
No i have not. What I am seeing is whole sites are not available. whatfinger shows nothing but small ads.

Just to give you a frame of reference, I pulled up TM and it shows 7 "firefox.exe" under processes but I only have 4 windows open.
Go figure.

If a PC is locking up, usually means it is running out of memory or there's so much data streaming through your CPU it is choking. Could also be heat build up if it is really dusty. Mechanical hard drives, especially ones in lap tops de from heat. The motors spin the disk slower and slower as they wear out. How old is the PC, what maker is the CPU; Intel or AMD?
Really hoped you would chime in. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RsiB...FF03F1&index=2 It seems to be when it is happening.
Now everything is clear. but for some reason at certain times it just jams. The tm is saying 1.7 mem on 3.8 and 7 on the cpu.....
Sorry my mind works 100 + my typing skills...But I Love my cats!!!
