  1. Wow Hazelnut, you are amazing! :) That first article nailed the problem, and the other 2 articles confirmed that Corona shouldn't be dabbling with dumps of any kind. (Way too techy.)

    Now I need to go to about:config and mess around like the instructions say. Thanks!

  2. I'll look into that, Winapp. Thanks.

    But can anyone tell me what happens if you create a mini or full dump? I see that it allows me to save said dump into my Documents folder. But I've never tried it because I have no idea what it would do. What exactly does it "dump"? :blink:

  3. It's not what you think. Even though I am Corona.

     

    (I tried to thumbnail this but, you know, fail.)

    That "Plugin container for Firefox" is just another resized window to have on my dtop showing the Decorah eagles cam. I have it on all day long.

    I know, I can close all of FF and start FF fresh again and the memory will lower again. Over time it rises, especially with a live feed.

    Anyway I was looking at Process/Create Dump/ Create Mini Dump (or) Create Full Dump. (I'm really holding back my natural gross instincts here.)

    But anyway, is there a way to "dump" this gained memory to get that 1 million K back down to normal without shutting down and restarting FF? Is that possible?

    You know I'm not a tech wizard or anything. Should I back away from it like it's a reg hive with gnarly teeth? Or is there a simple solution?

     

    Thanks for reading. I enjoyed writing this book as much as you enjoyed reading it. ;)

  4. When I look at the add-on site and see a total of about 26 add-ons compatible with FF5 and none of them are the ones I use, I think I'll use FF4 for the rest of the year and check back then.

     

    Oh wait, I went to the wrong page, or something. The add-on site keeps confusing extensions and add-ons. :blink:

    Hmm, maybe I will try out FF5.

  5. CA women. Can't trust 'em. In a CA divorce court they'll tear you to shredded underwear.

    Not personal experience, just hearsay.

     

    ADVICE FOR USING CCleaner'S REGISTRY INTEGRITY SECTION

    DON'T JUST CLEAN EVERYTHING THAT'S CHECKED OFF.

    Do your Registry Cleaning in small bits (at the very least Check-mark by Check-mark)

    ALWAYS BACKUP THE ENTRY, YOU NEVER KNOW WHAT YOU'LL BREAK IF YOU DON'T.

     

    Never noticed all that before, Nergal. Excellent advice. I learned that the hard way many years ago. I know better now. ;)
