Fix Facebook Chat on Firefox

If you're one of those people who's getting a headache with Facebook chat on Firefox (e.g. slowing down or hanging up your computer when someone messages you), then this is the right one for you!

This solution is tested on FF 3.5.7. Older versions of Firefox will work with this method but its better to update to the newest version.

1. Open firefox and type "about:config" without the quotes.
2. Click the button "I'll be careful, I promise!"
   
3. Type "browser.helperApps.alwaysAsk.force" on the Filter above without the quotes.
4. Turn the value to True by double clicking or right click then Toggle. Just get it to True okay? :p

Yeah, and that's what you have to do to fix your lagging facebook chat. Enjoy! (This may not work on all systems but majority of the people I've shared with this, it worked with them flawlessly.) Good Luck!
