How can I stop firefox from disk reading at startup?
It started many upgrades ago. First it only took a few minutes and rarely got a high disk usage warning from Norton Security. Now it lasts for up to 18 minutes when I start Firefox, reads over 800 MB and writes nearly 300 MB of data. What for? How do I stop this because it is very annoying and it occasionally causes Firefox to crash. Getting pissed.
Chosen solution
Start Firefox in Safe Mode {web Link} by holding down the <Shift>
(Mac=Options) key, and then starting Firefox. Is the problem still there?
While still in Safe Mode,
