Ok I tried all 3 things again & this one worked. Go the Menu then Tools --> Options --> Performance and untick everything. change the recommended size lower then see how it runs. Note: 0 = No Multi-proccesor = slow again. TRY 2 Restart Firefox after making these changes please. I think what I did wrong was I didn't restart firefox. I wish I knew what it meant about what I did. I have 16gb Ram.
