Since update 25.4.1 PM freezes after 45...60 min. No chance to return to a working system, no chance to save a screenshot. The more I try to click, the more it's confusing. I am forced to restart.

maybe it is a Cache or RAM-Problem.

I use Click & Clean Addon (http://www.hotcleaner.com/clickclean_firefox.html) and clear cache and cookies occasionally in long sessions (only one click).

As Tobin said, we don't support POSReady.
A hint: On POSReady, you probably need to disable your disk cache, because Windows Embedded uses a special disk driver that doesn't flush changes to local volumes. You may simply be running out of memory because of buffered cache writes in memory.
