Mozilla sent Firefox Version 27.0.1 to the release channel. If you've been experiencing the same instability as I have with Version 27.0, hopefully the fix noted below will solve the problem.

There is no indication at this time of security fixes.

Fixed in Firefox 27.0.1
  • FIXED -- 27.0.1 - Fixed stability issues with Greasemonkey and other JS that used ClearTimeoutOrInterval
  • FIXED -- 27.0.1 - JS math correctness issue (bug 941381)

To get the update now, select "Help" from the Firefox menu at the upper left of the browser window, then pick "About Firefox." Mac users need to select "About Firefox" from the Firefox menu.
 
Firefox 27 constantly hangs when watching videos with me.

Have you tried disabling HWA (if not already)? I've yet to update to 27.0.1, but I am on 27 and I have not had any videos hang and/or cause browser freezes.

I never tried it, but I've just updated to Firefox 27.0.1 and it seems to be better. I think they released a sub version like with the 27 version, with the 26 version to fix problems if I remember rightly.
