[Reloadevery] ReloadEvery eventually crashing FireFox?

[Karthik Balakrishnan]

Hi,
I have faced a similar problem with reload... Just as Paul said, when the 
reload every option is enabled for more than 20+ hours, the time count is 
lost and the page just reloads without any time interval!!! Also, it happens 
that the submenu of reload every option is not seen when i right click on 
the window!
