I don't see that. It could be that the page, at *that* time, was trying to reference something from Google, and that bit of things wasn't loading. Though I'd be surprised that something on Firefox's homepage was doing that. I'm more inclined to think it was Firefox auto-checking for updates to the Google search feature. > I believe there was a Firefox upgrade this morning when I did the > usual dnf upgrade. Did you completely quit Firefox and restart it since the update? I've found that if Firefox is running while it's updated, it soon goes into an unusable condition. Close all open Firefox windows, check there's no processes still open (downloads, background doo-dads, etc). And for the big fight, if it's not quitting, run "killall firefox" in a command line, or "killall -9 firefox" if you need the really big hammer. My Firefox, pre-update was 54.0.1 (64-bit), and working fine. Post update, is 55.0.1 (64-bit), and still working fine.
