Public bug reported: When accessing a Windows based webserver from work where my work (Active Directory) credentials are required Firefox becomes largely unresponsive. It does seem to process the website, but it isn't usable anymore and the firefox windows greys out for most of the time. It even sometimes causes the whole desktop to become unresponsive forcing me to switch to a VT and kill firefox.
It took me a while to find out that disabling the 'Ubuntu Firefox Modifications' add-on that fixed the problem. ** Affects: ubufox (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1058315 Title: ubuntu firefox modifications add-on makes firefox is unresponsive when accessing webserver using windows based authentication To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubufox/+bug/1058315/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
