Firefox tells me that Basschat is slowing down my browser

[Mottlefeeder]

For the last week or two Firefox has been giving me error messages saying that a web page is slowing down my browser, when the only web page I have open is Basschat.

It appears to be caused by the 'Unread Content' page refreshing after I have viewed and then closed a thread. Right clicking and opening a thread in a new tab, then closing, does not produce the error message.

Any thoughts on how I fix this?

If you've enabled desktop notifications (for example if someone replies to thread you have open but you're in anther tab) that may have an impact on your browser, so maybe try turning those off.

My laptop is grinding to a halt on a regular basis, even when I'm only running Basschat. I use Firefox, so I'd also be interested in any answers or ideas.

Very odd.  I use FF too and have done for many years

No issues with FF and BC at all

I've taken out almost all notifications, just leaving in the 'automatically follow content' and I haven't had an error message so far, doing exactly what I have been doing in the past, so thanks to Ped - you probably have cracked it.
