I've used Firefox since 0.7. And, somehow someway, I've been using it for the last two hours without a problem. I've opened and closed 50 tabs; my IotD search method involves opening 25 tabs simultaneously.

I think it shows up in Firefox because Firefox is 90% of what I do. When I can get to the task manager during the hang, it reports Firefox as taking about 100,000 k when the problem seems to happen.

There was one odd thing, though... during that disk check, the D: drive seemed to have a moment where it was louder and grindy-er. It got through the check OK, but I'm gonna back that up now and check it harder. There is space allocated on that drive for swap... or whatever Windows calls it...
