Subject: [Leica] Clearly OT: Firefox 14.0.1 Churning

This is clearly OT, but I am getting frustrated with the latest version of 
Firefox.  It seems to suffer from memory leak, if that is the term, and 
churns up processor activity repeatedly.

My old Dell desktop, running Windows XP, SP3, has been on for about seven 
hours today, and the memory shown for Firefox is approaching 900,000K, and 
this slows things down considerably.

Has anyone else experienced something similar?
