Went back to it after seeing your reply and tried again but it worked this time.
Thanks for the reply.
This happens to me sometimes, gotta really force a shutdown. NB: If you know what website you were using, don't go there again, you may get a repeat of the same or at least crash browser hard enough that phone reboot is easiest way to fix it. I've actually blacklisted a few in /etc/hosts so I don't forget my lesson and try the bad site again. I know "killall -9 sailfish-browser" should work, but there are cases where it doesn't.

I would really like to see and update of the web browser or a viable, more up-to-date alternative.
