Firefox problem
 
When I launch it, it freezes for about 10 seconds before I can do anything. It opens fine, just hangs for a bit then I can go on like normal. I would have reinstalled by now, but I got a lot of customized things like search engines and options set up. :(

If you have a beastly bunch of search bars, and other add-ons, yeah it will take a second or two. I find opening task manager, and ending IEXPLORER.EXE to be helpful, usually always makes the computer run faster.

iexplorer.exe is never running. A second or 2 is quite the understatement of my problem. :(

It could be just one of the addons. Try disabling them one-by-one to see if it improves things.

Could also be there's just too many. Firefox has become a resource hog on its own, and addons just make it worse.

Haha, reminds me of a screenshot some tech guy saved of a computer taht was going way too slow.

Bonzi Buddy, and like 40 addons for firefox, it was pretty rofl

Firefox is terrible.

Firefox isn't terrible at all. But Opera is pretty good.
