Could someone please verify this behaviour by Firefox?
Situation: Tumbleweed is fully up-to-date (as of few minutes ago); using Firefox v58.0.1 and kernel 4.15.2-1 (but this is immaterial).
When I go to the URL-
download.opensuse.org/tumbleweed/repo/oss/suse/
and select any one of the following directories
i586, i686, noarch, or x86_64 All work fine for me with v58.01.
Firefox reads in a screen full of data and then "freezes" -- ie, becomes unresponsive -- and has to be restarted.
However, FF does not "freeze" if I select '../non-oss/...' (and then select, eg, x86_64 etc).
FF does not misbehave in Leap 42.3 (which is also using kernel 4.15.2-1 on my system).
Any ideas why this should (only) occur in those '../repo/oss/...' directories ?

Thank you, and thanks also to Axel, for responding. Problem solved a short time ago :-). The problem was caused by an Addon: All Downloader Professional (ADP). Removed it and problem vanished. In Firefox version 52.x I have an Addon called DownThemAll! (DTA!) which I use to download files but in FF v58.x it is unusable. I replaced it with ADP under the impression that it replaced DTA! (but never used ADP in FF 58.x). I have now found that DownThemAll! seems to have been replaced by the Addon called Multithreaded Download Manger which works OK as I just tried it a few minutes ago and it doesn't cause FF to freeze.
