    Firefox - Slowest?


    People praise FF a lot on this forum I have had it as default for a few days and noticed a dramatic downturn in loading times. Even my email which used to open on the button, is now longer than 5 or more seconds. I open a web site from an mail link and thought the pc was broke, just a white screen, then ater a few more seconds my page began to show up. There are other examples of white screen slow slow starts. Its also failing to save passwords in quite a few cases.

    :)

  4. Firefox - Slowest?

    New FF - passwords

    Hi:

    If that setting is already enabled, then I suggest as the next troubleshooting step might be Mozilla Safe Mode (not to be confused with Windows Safe Mode)):

    Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode | Firefox Help


    • Please report back and let us know the outcome, as it will dictate the next steps.
    • Also: please tell us what AV/AM/firewall programs are you running on this system?

    Thanks,
    MM
